NYC art collective building an accessible community for creators.
Jointed
November 8 - November 14, 2024
All Street Gallery, 119 Hester Street
Fora Arts Collective proudly presents Jointed, our inaugural week-long group exhibition featuring 10 talented artists hailing from New York City's vibrant art community and beyond. Building on the success of our previous pop-up shows, we’re thrilled to launch an exciting fresh theme and venue.
For this show, we delve into the concept of “being jointed” and how that emerges in the arts. To be jointed is to be connected - both physically and conceptually. It is the place where singular becomes plural. Jointed emphasizes the artists experience of joining together mixed mediums, color, texture, and perspectives that push the boundaries of abstraction and figuration. Our aim is to cultivate a dialogue within the space, weaving together unique expressions to craft a wider narrative about unity and divergence.
Echoing Fora’s commitment to inclusivity and fostering community, the featured artists showcase diverse facets of both New York's creative landscape and the global art stage. Their distinctive works and artistic voices, prompt us to reflect on how individual elements coalesce to create something far greater and more profound than what could be achieved in insolation.
Our mission is to foster an inclusive and supportive community for artists and creators, promoting connections and collaboration among individuals from diverse backgrounds and skill levels.
We aim to challenge the competitive and exclusive nature of the art world by providing accessible opportunities and resources for personal artistic development.
By prioritizing inclusivity and mutual support, we strive to redefine success in the arts as a collective endeavor, aligning with the spirit of art as a form of resistance and counterculture.
