Exhibition Copy is a rotating series of solo shows by seven artists.

Each artist is invited to respond to the idea of the exhibition copy, a term often referring to a duplicate of an artwork fabricated because of a lending artist or institution’s reluctance to put an original work at risk.

Exhibition Copy also copies an exhibition space as Gallery Closed is multiplied into adjacent homes and businesses along a half-mile length of Lowrie Street.

Each exhibition will take place simultaneously in the public facing windows of six Lowrie Street locations. The venues include; Gallery Closed, a former beauty salon, a public notary office, Ron’s Pizza Palace, a private home and an elementary school. Each artist’s project will be exhibited for two months in all six locations, at the same time.  

This exhibition series invites seven artists to interrogate ideas of authorship and the original by using the exhibition copy as a means for expanding the experience of a single artwork across multiple sites and contextual shifts.
