After the dust settles
Jul 12 - Aug 10, 2024

Echo Contemporary Art presents After the dust settles, a collaboratively curated exhibition by artist collectives Tiger Strikes Asteroid Greenville (TSA GVL) and Berlin, Germany’s Frontviews. Opening July 12, 2024, the exhibition will feature drawing, installation, painting, sculpture, textile, and video that grapples with questions regarding the human condition and our response to ego. In an era of geopolitical tensions, After the dust settles examines the aftermath of metaphorical eruptions–political, social, or ecological–exploring humanity’s response when given the opportunity to begin again. After such a seismic shift, will more fertile soil be left behind upon which a society can grow? This group of international artists will present a response to these questions and choose to go through the destruction instead of escaping it.

Featuring over 30 artists, After the dust settles will present the intersection of American-European relations through visual conversations by artists from both collectives. Constructive dialogue across borders is crucial for fostering connections beyond nationality, and this exhibition offers representations of concepts that connect us all.
Artists from Frontviews and TSA GVL will be in attendance at the opening reception on July 12. Artist talks will occur during the exhibition; dates to be announced.
