The Bronx Museum of the Arts proudly presents Living and Dreaming, an exhibition culminating the 29th annual Artist in the Marketplace (AIM) Program; one of the most celebrated and competitive programs for emerging artists in the country.

The exhibition, which features the works of 36 artists from throughout the New York metropolitan area, presents a broad view of contemporary processes and themes that together reveal an accurate depiction of this era – from cultural collisions to political changes to the unstable economy. The show’s title references both the similarities and disparities within the artists’ diverse practice. Through media including photography, video, installation, sculpture, painting, collage, and multi-media, the participants utilize personal narratives as a tool to address issues of identity, gender, culture and race; while also immersing the viewer in realms that conjure the fantastical, the ethereal, and the mythological.

Includes Registry Artists: Rahul Alexander, Jonathan Brand, Adam Brent, Heejung Cho, Clare Grill, Joshua Abram Howard, Ken Madore, and Travis LeRoy Southworth
