September 2021

September 1 – 30, 2021.

Refrigerator Poetry Visual Art Archive is proud to present our inaugural online exhibition through September 30th and archived in perpetuity.

REFRIGERATOR POETRY SEPTEMBER 2021 features artwork by fifteen national and international artists completed since 2020. The presented works resonate with feelings of disruption, isolation, alienation, organizing rituals, and loss of control associated with shutdowns, quarantines, and economic pauses. The world and our daily lives have been irrevocably changed over the past year and continues to be in flux to this day. One constant is the artist’s commitment to making art as a way of both personal expression and as part of the narrative of their communities.

Refrigerator Poetry’s September 2021 Exhibition, organized by the Archive Director and co-founder Perri Neri, offers a conversation between artists who broadly range in their formal approaches and in the memories they summon. Refrigerator Poetry is curious to see and excited to share the art that is being made by visual artists from all over the world at the same time. Neri affirms that this just the beginning!
