2023 Artists StudioFebruary 18 - December 18, 2023
Details
“It was a block of music that made you think, as the room does: Take note. Listen deeply. The rest of the world is not like this … that sublime and exclusive room, almost too opulent for this world.”
—The New York Times
Curated by jazz pianist, composer, and MacArthur fellow Jason Moran, this series of interventions expands this season to spotlight the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, Inc. (AACM). For nearly 60 years, this revolutionary collective of artists, musicians, and creators from a range of backgrounds have been blending art forms and pushing boundaries. Their body of work has achieved lasting significance across borders of musical genre and geography and plays a critical role in the ever-evolving process of music creation.
They bring their unmistakable energy and boundless creativity to the Armory for a series of performances of newly composed works, workshops and open rehearsals, lectures and panels, exhibitions of historic artifacts and photographic surveys, and engagements with students from the Armory’s arts education programs. This in-depth residency of collaborative artists beautifully mirrors the cooperative spirit of the young artisans and designers present at the Veterans Room’s inception while showcasing where these groundbreakers reside creatively in the current moment and their innovative journey forward.
