Join us downtown at the Future Tenant Art Space FRIDAY, March 22, FROM
7-10 PM for the opening reception of MM/DD/YYYY. The exhibition
highlights select works of art by CMU School of Art undergraduate
students. Participating artists include Jessica Aguero, Sarah
Ceurvorst, Allison Huey, Esther Michaels, Aaron Regal, Carolyn
Supinka, Rachel Wagner, and Jamie Walters. Subsequent gallery hours
for MM/DD/YYYY are Thursdays and Sundays, 1-6 PM, and Fridays and
Saturdays, 1-8 PM through April 7.
This show has the singularity of presenting pieces made by artists who
are still students and who produce work by a distinct system of
deadlines and revisions. But that is where the singularities end; the
work here is not forced into one classification, it can be read
outside the academic setting.
In MM/DD/YYYY we see artwork that spans a great range of media. It is
interesting to note that although it was all produced during the same
year, and that time is a recurrent concern, the works possess a
timeless quality: they could have been made three years from now, or
three years ago. This work was produced in an early stage of each
artist’s career but we are able to find patterns, ideas and production
processes that will remain constant.

Future Tenant is a non-profit art space located in downtown Pittsburgh

artists through exhibitions that offer a cutting edge perspective on
the Pittsburgh art scene.
