Prospect 3: Notes for Now

The third Prospect biennial (P.3) explores the search to find the self and the necessity of the other as part of that quest. Guided by several curatorial themes, P.3’s exhibitions, site-specific installations and new works address: The New Orleans Experience, Seeing Oneself in the Other, The South, Crime and Punishment, Movie going, The Carnivalesque, Abstraction, Visual Sound, and will seamlessly tie together the largesse of the show through commissions by several artists under the moniker, All Together Now.

The Newcomb Art Gallery installation features the works of Monir Farmanfarmaian, Ebony G. Patterson, Hew Locke, and Andrea Fraser.

Franklin Sirmans, the Terri and Michael Smooke Department Head and Curator of Contemporary Art at Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is serving as the Artistic Director for “Prospect.3: Notes for Now.” The three-month exhibition showcases the work of more than 50 leading and emerging contemporary artists from around the globe.
