tridlen on art21
Artist and friend Tim Ridlen is guest blogging for Art21 these days. Today he posted a thoughtful piece on the potential of juicing limited resources and flowering within boundaries as young artists living in [New York] trying times - Strength in Limitations. And what better of an endeavor to offer up as an example than MWNM...
Read the piece here.
Tim's work will be screened along with Chelsea Knight's this Sunday at MWNM / 17 Orchard. More details to come.

93 DAYS
DECEMBER 12 / MWNM
MWNM is pleased to announce the opening of 93 DAYS. 93 days is the span of time partners Karen Archey and Alice Wells were given to transform the storefront of 17 Orchard into an alternative exhibition space. The conditions that made this project possible are elucidated through an ongoing, self reflexive archive. The archive is an encompassing installation that serves to question the relevance of the increasingly popular alternative exhibition space and the problematic, constructed identity of the young artist and art professional. Other collaborators include Jon Rafman, William Bryan Purcell, Tim Ridlen and Bret Schneider.
The conclusion of MWNM is contingent upon the lease of its storefront, elucidating the relationship MWNM bears to the economy and real estate market, as well as personal variables that determine its longevity. 93 DAYS materialized as a solution to the obstacle of maintaining an exhibition space that is given an unpredictable duration. The archive will open Sunday, February 8th from 6 – 9, and run through March 1st with the possibility of extension.
