TSA PDF : Zone V curated by Yael Eban
Tiger Strikes Asteroid’s initiative of exhibitions under the title TSA : PDF was a critics pick in the New York Times. Zone V, curated by Yael Eban includes work by Roni Aviv, Magali Duzant, Jiwoong Jang, Rehan Miskci, Adam Liam Rose, Cory Emma Siegler, Rachel Stern, and Gabriela Vainsencher. Zone V refers to the photographic middle gray, perceptually halfway between white and black. Morally ambiguous and neutral, gray is the color of complexity, filling the space between absolutes. Reduction of color evokes notions of necessity, distilling an image to its abstracted core. Triple-clicking on the home button of an iPhone turns bright colors to grayscale—a hack to combat phone addiction, altering our relationship to the screen in an instant. What are the possibilities and boundaries of the monochromatic? At what point does a color image hold so little color that it reads as gray? The monochrome and color works in this show prove that limits and restraints can yield artwork that is at once intellectually rigorous and expressive.
TSA_PDF is a series of printable exhibitions curated by Tiger Strikes Asteroid. People are invited to download and print these works on their home printers and share their “install shots,” which are shared on social media and TSA’s website.
