Coming May 8th!

Counterspells is a digital exhibition featuring new and re-imagined work by the 16th cohort of Kresge Artist Fellows and Gilda Award recipients.

Unseen and wild energies are deeply felt, all around us. How we choose to listen to, summon, harness, or even resist these resonances are at the core of the Counterspells exhibition. Energy in its myriad forms is abundant in the artists’ work included within. It vibrates, echoes, weaves, skips—and sometimes even falters, with great purpose.

These counterspells are uniquely personal forms of tactical magic, rooted in forms of cooperative action, rebellion, deflection, and reflection. As you explore this exhibition, consider the vibrant ways in which artists engage with their practices in connection with this theme. The work may be quiet, it may be loud, but it is always transformative—resisting stasis.
