Liz Deschenes in Guild & Greyshkul

Guild & Greyshkul is a group exhibition about the artist-run gallery of the same name, which operated in New York City from 2003 to 2009 and bridged a shared studio space and a commercial gallery. It presents works by over 70 artists, reflecting past and emerging models of creative exchange and collaboration among an intergenerational cohort. The exhibition is organized by Anya Kielar, Johannes VanDerBeek, and Sara VanDerBeek, the gallery's three founders, in cooperation with Adriana Farmiga and Yuri Masnyj, deans at The Cooper Union School of Art. A related publication and public program explore the ongoing relevance of artist-run spaces, collective practice, and alternative pedagogies as models for today's artists and institutions.
