You Know What You Know
at Kunstraum LLC in Brooklyn, New York and Space 776 in New York, New York, USA
10-31 January 2024
“You Know What You Know” is a two-site group exhibition that explores women artists and their connection to their embodied knowledge. The exhibition invites viewers on a journey into passionately constructed environments filled with the emotional architecture of natural experiences, sensory conversations and structured unity. Located at both Space776 in Manhattan’s Lower East Side and at the Kunstraum gallery in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, the show highlights the work of five contemporary female-identifying artists who present representational, process-based, tactile, performative and interactive artworks to create two unique exhibition experiences under one theme.

“You Know What You Know” includes artists Tatiana Arocha, Jaynie Crimmins, Amanda Konishi, Saskia Krafft and Nadja Verena Marcin and is curated by Kunstraum’s 2023-2024 Curator-in-Residence Christina Massey. Works on display employ labor-intensive techniques with mediums such as aluminum, gold leaf on canvas, meticulously crafted paper sculptures, collaged paintings, ceramics sewn into silk fabrics as well as digital mobile apps with content libraries. Further layered into the artwork selections is the artists’ shared concern for environmental preservation, global ecosystems and the reshaping of languages. Their socially and economically diverse upbringings, their connection to historical, craft-based mediums as women artists and their educational backgrounds in fine art-related fields, all inform their creative approach.
