Curator Glenn Adamson in Virtual Conversation with Artist Zoë Sheehan Saldaña

June 30, 2020
258 Main St, Ridgefield, CT 06877, United States

The title of Zoë Sheehan Saldaña’s current—and currrently closed—exhibition, “There Must Be Some Way Out of Here,” is almost scarily prescient. The objects in the show, meticulously made by Sheehan to be interchangeable with the real thing, include many emergency items: hand sanitizers, life preservers, matches. What was the genesis of the exhibition? What is Sheehan expressing with these works? Curator Glenn Adamson speaks with the artist on Zoom, from 6:30 to 7:30 P.M. Eastern Time. —L.J.
