Art History of Bushwick
“Making History,” an exhibition of 400 artists, all of whom have or have had studios in Bushwick in the past ten years or have recently participated in any solo or group show at a Bushwick gallery, will launch at Storefront Ten Eyck (324 Ten Eyck St., nr. Bogart St., Bushwick; 917-714-3813) with an opening reception from 4 to 7 p.m. on April 19. Krista Saunders Senna and Dexter Wimberly curated the show on a first-come-first-served basis, sending out an open call to Bushwick artists and capping the submissions at 400. Tickets to the closing reception on May 10 entitle guests to one artwork from the exhibition (which includes work from Loren Munk, previously shown in 2013’s “The Decline and Fall of the Art World, Part 1: The One-Percenters,” and Meg Hitchcock, who makes collages out of sacred texts). The exhibition is organized by Arts in Bushwick, known for Bushwick Open Studios, an annual three-day festival in June; the sales from “Making History” will fund a book to celebrate the tenth anniversary of BOS in 2016.
