--> MORE
The Writing's on the Wall is an interactive and experiential exhibit exploring the institutional nature of racism in the United States. In this installation, Diane Jacobs takes you on a journey that reveals the staggering statistics and human impacts of incarceration. With layered text and sculptural elements that include steel, glass, and human hair, Jacobs will present the viewer with a stark, ultimately reflective investigation of institutional racism and its ramifications on our society. This exhibition is funded in part by the Regional Arts and Culture Council and Work for Art.

After a period of uncharacteristic quietness, Disjecta is pleased to formally announce the public opening of our new 10,000 sf arts building at 8371 N Interstate in the historic Kenton neighborhood. The former bowling alley turned abandoned hydraulic shop has undergone a facelift since we signed a long-term lease in January 2008 and now houses five large, fully leased artist studios, along with 3,500 sf of visual exhibition space. When complete, the new Disjecta will include a fully equipped, affordable 1,600 sf rehearsal space available to independent performing artists and companies. In 2009, we will add expanded offices, residency studios and a café/bar.
