Upcoming Artists-in-Residence 2022
The temperatures have dropped, snow now covers the surrounding landscape at the Lab, and friends have gathered around the fire pit at least once to herald in best wishes for 2022. Winter ambience, with its afternoon long shadows, has settled in and continues to cultivate introspection and a sublime state of winter retreat.
This season has provided time to host a number of open-ended conversations with our collaborators, cohorts, and future AIRs regarding plans for the season ahead.
UPCOMING ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE
Anthony Elms
Anthony Elms will be joining us next at Lost and Found Lab. Elms, a curator and writer, was the Daniel and Brett Sundheim Chief Curator at Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania (2015-21) . For ICA, Elms organized the exhibitions Milford Graves: The Mind-Body Deal with Mark Christman (2020), Karyn Olivier: Everything That's Alive Moves (2020), Cauleen Smith: Give It or Leave It (2018), Endless Shout (2016-7), Rodney McMillian: The Black Show (2016), Christopher Knowles: In a Word with writer Hilton Als (2015), White Petals Surround Your Yellow Heart (2013), and coordinated several other exhibitions and projects. He has independently curated many exhibitions, including the Whitney Biennial 2014 and his writings have appeared in many catalogs and edited collections, as well as various periodicals.
While at the Lab, Anthony plans to further cultivate his long-standing interest in using archival material as fuel for future creative work. For the time being, he's deep within the papers of musician, composer, producer and artist Arto Lindsay.
Lost and Found Lab will be hosting a range of artists/thinkers/writers hailing from a wide range of disciplines in 2022. To name just a few:

MEETING WITH NEW FRIENDS OF THE LAB
We have also been enjoying a variety of open ended conversations about shared interests and curiosities with new friends of the Lab including:
Staff members from Greenwich Historical Society including Maggie Dimock, Christopher Shields, Heather Lodge and Stephanie Bennett, regarding ways in which future AIRs may seek inspiration from holdings within their collections.
Barnum Museum, in nearby Bridgeport, CT, regarding their current initiatives involving digital assets from the Museum collection.
Norwalk Art Space, and their impressive program pairing intergenerational artists teaching and learning from each other through the residency program hosted at the Norwalk Art Space facility.
Noyes House in New Canaan, CT, along with photographer Michael Biondo and Noyes family member Fred Noyes regarding the extraordinary work of industrial designer, Eliot Noyes.
Lost and Found Lab is honored to be holding conversations with this inspiring cohort of creative thinkers. The Lab has recently established membership with the Cultural Alliance of Fairfield County and looks forward to continuing collaborative conversations with creatives in our surrounding community.
