Exhibition

The Invitation
Art SV/SF

UC Davis Art Studio presents an exhibition booth juxtaposing two new large-scale projects designed to galvanize conversation and collaboration between artists, designers, scientists, writers, curators, academics, entrepreneurs, and the art public during and after Art Silicon Valley/San Francisco (Art SV/SF). According to online magazine 7×7 this UC Davis booth—featuring Tim Hyde’s The Invitation—is one of the “Can’t Miss Booths at the Bay Area’s Glitzy New Art Fair, Art SV/SF.”

The Invitation is a series of photographs produced in 2014 as interdisciplinary collaborations within the UC Davis art community and outside professionals making significant contributions to their field. Each work is produced from discussions, studio visits, and correspondence between two researchers. Separate and distinct fields of inquiry are crystallized into a single picture. The exchange reveals a cross section of investigation underway at UC Davis, interpreted visually. The picture is the conversation.

If you visit the fair, drop by the UC Davis exhibition booth and talk to Tim Hyde and Alyssa Lempesis (MFA 2014) about The Invitation.
