THE MOSS ROOM

Curated by Kate Orne

On view Sept. 13 - Nov. 18 ’24 art Manitoga, Garrison, NY.

"The Moss Room is titled after my favorite room, located at Manitoga and lovingly cultivated by legendary designer Russell Wright. My intention with this exhibition was to create a transformative experience where the shifting light illuminates the work and, in turn, reflects into the landscape — creating a beautiful symbiotic relationship between art and nature." — Kate Orne, curator.

The Moss Room, a two-person exhibition of outdoor sculpture by Alma Allen (b. 1970, Utah) and Bosco Sodi (b. 1970, Mexico City) situated in the woodland quarry landscape of the National Landmark Manitoga / The Russel Wright Design Center. The Moss Room observes the connections to this unique property and links these artists’ distinctive practices, highlighting Allen and Sodi’s experimental approach to form and material that engages a dynamic history of the natural world and draws especially from the landscape of the Americas. The exhibition is curated by Kate Orne, founder of Upstate Diary, and co-organized by Kasmin.
