The Gallery Layout

     The gallery will be laid out in a way that symbolizes the layers of our identities. First will be a room for Binh Danh's chlorophyll prints, the outer layer of our identity, one of nationality and belonging to a group. Following Danh's work will be a room with Weems' photographs showing how our identities can be temporary and change with the situation. Sometimes we can be a friend, a parent, a lover. This will lead into a room with both Calle's and Suh's art. First will be Calle's The Hotel pieces, then a pile of her newly re-released Address Book (patrons will be able to take one). Behind the books will be Suh's Paratrooper V. This room will be to represent how our possessions give us an identity and how others perceive this identity, as well as how those who observe us in turn shape us. The final room will contain the work by Wearing, showing that there is an internal identity under the mask.
