Modeled after graduate program art critiques, artists are invited to present their work in front of an audience that includes TSV team members and a guest moderator, to stimulate critical dialogue, discourse and growth in their work and studio practice. Artists sign up first come first serve by first emailing their interest along with a link to their website and/or several images of their current work . This event is free and open to the public.

CURATORIAL PROJECTS
JUNE, 2012
Marco, June 21 – July 22 , Works in Progress Gallery at Artisphere in Arlington, VA
The Studio Visit (TSV) is inviting local artist Reuben Breslar to occupy the Work In Progress Gallery for six weeks. Reuben is an interdisciplinary artist based in Virginia. TSV is asking three other regional artists (to be announced) to participate in this interactive process that will begin with Reuben responding to the space initially. The three participating artists will take turns – alternating weeks – by responding to his work and all the while Reuben responding back shortly thereafter. It is, in essence, a dialogue and a conversation as manifest as the artist as curator and as a physical space that ameliorates with the people and objects that house and ‘converse’ with it over time. Scheduled critiques are planned and the entire process will be documented and featured on TSV’s site in a collaborative editorial of video, photography and article to be also completed by Reuben himself.
Curatorial Residency, June 22 – September, 2012, Arlington Arts Center
TSV is partnering with the Arlington Arts Center to launch a collaborative Curatorial Residency Program that will culminate in an exhibit. Two emerging curators are Kristina Bilonick and Julie Chae. Two writers to document the curatorial process are Joren Lindholm and Matt Smith.
