This exhibition will also feature the popular “MAAC Mini’s” where each artist participates in a discussion about their artistic process in creating their work at a “meet & greet” brunch on Sunday, October 29 between 1pm – 3pm.

The curatorial vision for MAAC on the Map: Caught in Time centers on the excavation of memory. We stand at the boundary between the present and the past, and deconstruct the fragments of our personal histories to find the pathway to the future. We are tracing shadows seeking to understand our transient natures. We get trapped in images of the past, stuck in the quagmire of the forgotten, for a brief moment – caught in time…

MAAC on the Map is a contemporary art exhibition series that aims to give a platform to emerging and established artists at The Manhattan Art & Antiques Center – one of the nation’s largest fine art and historical design centers. It’s a movement to give contemporary artists a new home on the Upper East Side and an opportunity to expose their work to a different audience. The injection of these vital contemporary artists shows that the Upper East Side is a potent destination for innovation, a creative hotspot where experience meets a new breed of artistic disruptor.

We look forward to hosting you!
