FALL 2016 PUBLIC ART FUND TALKS AT THE NEW SCHOOL
Featuring David Shrigley, Heather and Ivan Morison, and Spencer Finch
Titled Mining the Minutiae, the fall 2016 Public Art Fund Talks at The New School series brings together a diverse group of artists, whose practices explore the intricacies of collective experiences.
 
David Shrigley employs a distinctive comedic tone to dissect the experience of everyday situations and human interaction. Working both within and outside the art world, Shrigley confronts the viewer with his or her own experience, creating an awareness regarding life’s infinite jest. Exhibiting  predominately outside the gallery space, Heather and Ivan Morison focus on the interaction of people and ordinary things, objects forgotten and unnoticed. Their public interventions focus on the active engagement of common grounds, from histories, sites, and materials to people. Spencer Finch seeks to represent the most elusive forms of experience through the lenses of nature, history, literature, and personal experience. Referring to the fleeting and the temporal elements inherent in all areas of life, Finch mines the observed world to create poetic installations that speak to a shared existence.
