“Any good curator wants to push an artist… Kate [Kraczon] proposing a show with just video and text pushes us into uncharted territory, to make braver work.”
—Alex Da Corte on developing a new, collaborative work with Jayson Musson: Easternsports, now on view at ICA. Organized by Assistant Curator Kate Kraczon.
Your support ensures that ICA can continue to be a showcase and laboratory for this kind of brave art that you will not see anywhere else.
Alex Da Corte and Jayson Musson, two artists with deep Philadelphia roots, have known each other since 2001, but they have never had the chance to work together, until now. Their epic four-channel video installation, Easternsports, demonstrates an innovative and experimental collaboration that would never have occurred without the encouragement and facilitation of ICA curators and staff.
