180 MILES OR LESS
RADIUS I

SEPTEMBER 10 - NOVEMBER 4, 2020

Radius I is a survey of the cultural ecosystem of our region collaboratively curated by Bradbury Art Museum team members Hillary Brooks, Haley Voges, and Garry Holstein. The exhibition, shown in four of BAM’s six galleries, highlights works by 38 artists who live or work within 180 miles in any direction of BAM.

The goal of this exhibition is to help us identify our regional sense of place and connect with the artists and organizations who drive it. The initial distance of 180 miles was established for two reasons. The first is that it creates a diameter of 360 which is the same as the number of degrees that are in a circle. The second reason is the more important one. This distance is an easily manageable drive of 3 to 4 hours. This is meant to make future collaborations more manageable and lessen the impact on the artists.
It also increases the likelihood that individuals from their network would want to be involved in the future.
