THE ART OF CITIZEN SPACE EXPLORATION

Free Enterprise: The Art of Citizen Space Exploration will be the first contemporary art exhibition in the U.S. to explore implications of civilian space travel which represents a major political and cultural shift away from sponsorship by the federal government and toward a free-market, private enterprise model. Free Enterprise is comprised of several artist commissions, a multi-stage project structure, a variety of public programs, and two publications. It is co-curated by Sweeney’s director, Tyler Stallings, and Marko Peljhan, Departments of Art, and Media Arts & Technology, UC Santa Barbara. Major support is provided by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, University of California Institute for Research in the Arts, and the French-American Cultural Exchange Program.
