Theaster Gates and Rebuild

Announce the Opening of The Land School ​
 

Artist Theaster Gates shares, “The Land School marks a radical milestone in our work, one where—as a small, experimental arts organization invested in space redemption—we now own our tools and our facility. As we consecrate the building and celebrate our archives in this first phase of opening, we are excited for the space to continue to reveal itself to us over the years. It is precisely this iterative, durational approach to our work that allows us to cultivate the full promise of Black space and creative intelligence. Over the past twenty years, it has become evident that the challenges, lessons, and opportunities we’ve encountered in this work form critical pedagogies and heuristics for how we can imagine and realize new spatial futures for our communities.” ​​​​​​​​
