about

Neighborhoods come and go, gradually or suddenly, as the result of population, economic, political, or ecological changes. Some things remain while others disappear. "There Goes the Neighborhood" explored the evolution of communities here and abroad. The exhibition focused on how architecture and landscape embody a neighborhood’s past, present, and potential future. The work on view examined places amid growth or decline, sites that hovered somewhere between construction, deterioration, and renewal. The artists revealed how physical sites symbolize the human experience of change, whether simple or complex, invited or forced. Linking actual and anticipated shifts in communities across the globe, "There Goes the Neighborhood" emphasized the evolving structures and compositions of neighborhoods in the twenty-first century. The exhibition featured artists from different regions and cultures who were responding to shifts in communities around the world. Some focused on particular sites, while others looked beyond specific neighborhoods to overarching factors effecting change. The eleven artists featured in this exhibition included Willie Birch, Kristin Bly, Amy Casey, Cao Fei, Dionisio Gonzalez, Leslie Grant + Nina Pessin-Whedbee, Matthew Kolodziej, Eva Struble, Clemens von Wedemeyer, and Catherine Yass. "There Goes the Neighborhood" was curated by Megan Lykins Reich, and was generously underwritten by Donna and Stewart Kohl, Dominion, Medical Mutual of Ohio, Glidden House, Great Lakes Brewing Company, with community support from the Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity Re-Store, Cleveland Neighborhood Development Coalition, and Heinen’s Fine Foods.
