"Transit Projects: Survival L.A."
2002-07-06 until 2002-07-27
Raid Projects
Los Angeles, CA, USA United States of America

Transit Projects: Survival L.A. explores the thematic concept of "survival" as it relates to issues of contemporary art practice. Los Angeles artists investigate notions of personal endurance, struggle and triumph, release and transcendence. Each artist reflects on the various manifestations of "survival" in our culture today. Artists explore topics ranging from serial TV dramas that allow for the viewer's collective kinship with dramatized struggle, to "extreme" demonstrations of physical hardship and endurance, and beyond, to the personal coping mechanisms activated in navigating our everyday struggles.

Transit Projects: Survival L.A investigates how the individual negotiates the physical and psychological terrain of our everyday social constructs, within a set of evermore fluid and transitory boundaries.

The depARTment produces the Transit Projects exhibition series. The Transit Pojects program invites contemporary artists to interact, adapt, engage, and work within the context of non-traditional spaces, and across disciplines such as fashion, architecture, interior and graphic design. It seeks to expand the relationship between art, presentation, and audiences beyond established formats, inviting a variety of perspectives to inform these relationships. As the Transit Projects series develops according to each individual site and project, it promotes a dialogue about the arts and their context, encouraging a playful and indepth interpretation and approach to the arts in contemporary culture.
