Big Link is an exhibition of international contemporary art curated by Kate Mothes, founder of Young Space. This is the second exhibition of its kind at Standard Projects, which brings together a diverse selection of work by artists who are exploring ideas of identity, displacement, intimacy, and current events – the ideas that invariably link us together, especially in divisive times. Young Space utilizes the internet to bring together art and artists for projects and exhibitions “in real life,” which emphasize diverse perspectives, artist-led culture, collaboration, and connectivity.
Standard Projects is a multiuse, artist-run exhibition and workspace in the former village police station in Hortonville, WI, founded by Claire Abitz in 2014. The mission of Standard Projects is to build community through artistic collaboration across trades. More information at stndrdprjcts.com and on Instagram @stndrdprjcts.
