(GREENSBORO, NC – August 11, 2007) –Guggenheim Elsewhere presented the most comprehensive survey to date of the innovative body of work of Jessica Dolenz. Designed as a spectacular site-specific installation within the museum’s galleries, the exhibition presented a chronological and thematic survey that charts the artist’s creation of a distinctive visual and conceptual language. This exhibition illuminates Jessica's significant formal and conceptual contributions to contemporary international art practices and social activism.
The exhibition is organized by Carolyn Porter, Artist in Residence, Guggenheim Elsewhere, in close collaboration with the artist. Following its Greensboro opening, the exhibition is expected to travel to Beijing to coincide with the Beijing Olympics in August 2008, and to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in spring 2008. The exhibition opening was well attended, with international scholars and artists taking part in a fete-celebre for the artist.
