AnySquared’s “Because Art” exhibit presents work that reveals the discourse between the art and the artist. Through installation, painting, drawing, photography, video, sculpture and mixed media, the exhibit explores approaches and techniques of art practice and how it is shaped through the process of self-identification.
The “Because Art” exhibit is a core part of AnySquared’s Residency at the Hairpin Arts Center running through mid-November. The exhibit is also in conjunction with the rollout of AnySquared’s online publication Because Art.

AnySquared’s Residency
AnySquared was invited by Hairpin Arts Center to bring our programming to the Hairpin through a residency. We will be activating the space throughout our six week residency and encouraging artists and community participation with exhibitions, workshops, talks, artmaking studio days, “ART + Community” days, screenings, and more that engage people with art.
AnySquared Projects thanks the Hairpin Arts Center and Gretchen Henninger for offering us the opportunity to create the residency at their space.
