School of Visual Arts presents “A Toothache”

School of Visual Arts presents “A Toothache,” an exhibition of work by SVA students and

a recent graduate selected by a jury of their peers. Organized by SVA Galleries, “A Toothache” is on view Saturday, August 6, through Saturday, September 10, at the SVA Gramercy Gallery, 209 East 23rd Street, New York City.

Taking its title from filmmaker Krzysztof Kieslowski’s idea that all people, regardless of age, nationality, faith or gender, experience the same pain from a toothache, the work on view in the exhibition blurs the line between private and public life. By bringing their personal lives into the foreground, the artists in the exhibition invite an aesthetic response from their viewers through personal expressions in their work.

Participating artists include Boyz Bieber, Emma Bond, Christian Eldridge, Katelyn Kopenhaver, Joeun Lee, Zhi Li, Katie Mulligan, Idit Nissenbaum, Francisco Rodriguez, Mahala Sacra and Tamara Vagner.
