Dual Frequency: 2017 South Florida Cultural Consortium Award Exhibition Zenalogo

<strong>Dual</strong> <strong>Frequency</strong> envisions artist initiatives that steer creative culture in support of their communities. Many participating artists curate, organize, perform, and teach as extensions of their individual practices. This zinealog explores in flux studio tables, promo images, and proposals in an overarching stream-of-conscious narrative. I declare that a zinealog is a hybrid zine catalog, a small publication devoted to unconventional subject matter and a survey of supplemental studio material. The 14 <strong>South</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> <strong>Consortium</strong> fellows are gracious with their time and will receive awards of either $15,000 or $7,500 in <strong>2017</strong>. The <strong>South</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> <strong>Cultural</strong> <strong>Consortium</strong> is the largest government-sponsored grant program for artists living in Broward, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe, and Palm Beach counties. It provides significant support to individuals who contribute to the cultural fabric of a vibrantly expanding arts community with no strings attached. - Laura Marsh, Curator of <strong>Exhibition</strong>s, Art and Culture Center/Hollywood “It is exciting how this year’s SFCC artists highlight a diverse range of collaborative practices, from IRL, to Obsolete Media Miami, to Tile Blush, to Exile Books, and Wild Beast Collective. When artists form structures – whether bookshops, artist-run galleries, archives or production agencies – it demonstrates an effort to make a larger impact with their work and create a sense of community. It’s generative. While this is not a phenomenon isolated to <strong>South</strong> <strong>Florida</strong>, this development nevertheless signals a coalescing effort to create autonomy and agency among our region’s artists.” - Amanda Sanfilippo, Curator + Artist Manager, Art in Public Places, Miami-Dade County Department of <strong>Cultural</strong> Affairs
