Exit Art

Exit Art has charted the new in art and contemporary culture since it’s founding in 1982 by directors Jeanette Ingberman and Papo Colo. Over the course of 20 years, Exit Art has acquired a reputation for curatorial innovation, depth of programming in diverse media, and especially for bringing to public attention the work of important under recognized artists. Part of its mission is to present the work of emerging artists in innovative ways that expose the diverse, multi-disciplinary nature of contemporary culture. Its exhibitions, performances and programs challenge traditional notions of what art is and explore the rich amalgam of voices and cultures that continually shape America. As such, it has grown to become one of the most admired, innovative spaces for supporting artists and providing the public with a visionary look on what’s to come. Exit Art now stands as an archive of cultural thought and expression routinely mined by artists, students, curators, and scholars.
