The UKS’ library is composed of member’s donations of own catalogues, portfolios and other publications, old source books, magazines, museum's catalogues, artist's books, books on various theories, books on technique, books on artist's rights, pamphlets… the list goes on and on. All of this material has been meticulously archived and classified according to the famous Dewey Decimal Classification in order to present this material to the public. However with such a dispersed body of information, it still is easy to get lost...
In an effort to consolidate UKS' classification of publications and present material deemed relevant, UKS' civil servant have invited two artist and a designer to work on the library set-up and explicate on the nature of the archive and its presentation.
Artists Andreas Banderas and Natalie Rognsøy have together conceived modular sculptures that have operations such as search, systematization, retrieval and distortion of material at the basis of their production. In the library the sculptures function as displays for publications. Far from being invisible book-holders, the works engage in a dialogue with the presented material.
Designer René Josdal has worked with UKS' miniaturized and color-coded Dewey-system to produce a poster to serve as an entry point to the library's classifications.
If you're confused now -- you should definitely come to the opening Thursday November 25th 7pm.

REALIZING SOLUTIONS
:-):-):-) REALIZING SOLUTIONS TO THE IMMATERIAL is an exhibition curated by Raphael Cohen and Bea Walling. The show runs from 11/5/10 to 12/17/10 with an opening reception on 11/4/10. For a list of participating artists please visit our tumblr
How has the emergence of a virtual community affected the way we perceive information? Can a work that exists virtually exist similarly in real space? ...In what ways does our relationship with the screen translate and inform our understanding of traditional fine art mediums? The age of technology has presented us with a series of questions regarding our experience perceiving and digesting information. The rise of new media art, specifically art created to be viewed solely through the Internet, has created alternatives to the tradition of the viewing space. How can the artist exploit or distort an image’s responsibility to the viewer? Is a website or computer screen an equal vantage point to the gallery setting? Does a transformation of media contribute to a work’s meaning? How do aspects of physicality, “objectness”, virtuality and relationship affect the viewer and the way an artwork is perceived? This show charts the advantages and disadvantages of new media and the potential of it’s presentation.
By pressing the contemporary digital community for solutions to the problems addressed above, we are attempting to represent viable new media solutions and innovations within the presentation space of the gallery. Due to the nature of new media, artists working within this vein often create communities that are not distinguished or limited by regional location. This freedom and ability has allowed artistic communities to grow and thrive, outsource ideas, hold critical discourse, and disseminate information quickly and proficiently. Due to the universality of the Internet, users are able to communicate and express themselves from across the globe, and work closely with one another from their respective origins, without the hindrance of region, age, facility, or institution. It seems appropriate given the theme of our exhibition proposal that this breadth of community be utilized and exploited. By showing the work of students and young artists from across the globe alongside the work of the RISD student body we as curators are not only able to represent a variety of interpretations to the questions posed but also emphasize the depth of community that is represented digitally through a vast network of platforms.
