Self-Portraitr: An Interactive Exhibition Curating the Flickr Community

      

"One can choose the role they wish  to assume: curator, artist,
etcetera. With every click of the mouse, viewers become participants;
the interactive community defines the exhibition. The hope is that the
final result will be a 50 print exhibition of images chosen by the
community."

If you had told me a couple of years ago that a renowned New York gallery was going to begin breaking down the walls of the traditional gallery "curate and exhibit" experience, I would have been more than a little suspect.

From June 30th to August 25th visitors to the Pace/MacGill Gallery (both the actual gallery space in New York and their website) will do just that.
