It was a part of the exhibition Landscape as Dreamscape at Citygroup Project Space. A Wandering Atlas is part of a series of photographs of plant growth on sidewalks, abandoned lots, and construction sites throughout the city. It explores these budding indications of the natural world which are either hidden from the public experience or that elude to qualified elements of 'the city' or 'landscape.' At the same time, the work grapples with the difficulties of identifying plant growth in these areas, pairing imagery of city plants with a list of possible corresponding botanic identifications. The impulse to classify generates thoughts about the right to freedom in the city, which is built, owned, and partitioned. The image chosen for this poster for Citygroup was taken at the boundary of Lion's Gate Field and Forsyth Street, just across from the Citygroup gallery, thus holding site-specific significance to the Citygroup location and the neighborhood itself. https://citygroup.nyc/Bulletin-03 Tue, 27 Oct 2020 21:03:35 +0000 citygroup https://citygroup.nyc/Bulletin-03 <img width="576" height="797" width_o="576" height_o="797" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/05d7e66179946872bfcc85755982ab103065281563b71b56a6d5fbf05d0e5581/bill2.jpg" data-mid="92818512" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/576/i/05d7e66179946872bfcc85755982ab103065281563b71b56a6d5fbf05d0e5581/bill2.jpg" /> <img width="895" height="1193" width_o="895" height_o="1193" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8f50a7dee044d8b4d10ebf38ad4d745f8de4214de184e285d229770decb735b3/bill1.jpg" data-mid="92818516" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/895/i/8f50a7dee044d8b4d10ebf38ad4d745f8de4214de184e285d229770decb735b3/bill1.jpg" /> waypointsBill Jenkins, 2020Paper mache in display frame For the 3rd edition of Citygroup Bulletin, Bill Jenkins has presented a collection of marble-sized paper mache balls formatted in a display that recalls the newspaper pages that they are made from. waypoints is placed at the entryway into the Citygroup space, in conjunction with Manifesting Manifesto, an exhibition about the collective composition of a new manifesto.
