2022 Benefit Artist Edition: Germane Barnes

Barnes’ research and design practice investigates the connection between architecture and identity. Mining architecture’s social and political agency, he examines how the built environment influences black domesticity. His design and research contributions have been published and exhibited in several international institutions. Most notably, The Museum of Modern Art, The Graham Foundation, The New York Times, Architect Magazine, DesignMIAMI/ Art Basel, The Swiss Institute, Metropolis Magazine, Curbed, and The National Museum of African American History where he was identified as one of the future designers on the rise.

Barnes is the Inaugural Wege Triennial Fellow and will be back in residence in November 2023. Check out his website HERE and a chat with him about the AIRIE residency HERE.

2021 Benefit Artist Edition: Rebecca Reeve

Rebecca Reeve is a British multidisciplinary artist based in New York. Working in sculpture, painting, and photography she produces site-specific temporal works in the natural environment, often using familial household objects to frame the scene. The landscape and biological rhythms are a source for investigation and perceptual experimentation in her lush, photographic works.

See the video below for Art in the Everglades, a conversation between Rebecca Reeve and Helen Toomer, about the impact Reeve's 2012 residency in the Everglades National Park had on her photographic practice. They discuss Reeve's current work, new benefit editions, and what she hopes to accomplish during her AIRIE alumni residency in February 2021. Presented by AIRIE and UNTITLED, ART (@untitledartfair)
