Coyote Time derives from the title of artist Alice Bucknell’s commissioned artwork for the exhibition, marking the moment in a video game when a character leaps off a cliff and is suspended in midair, unsure of what comes next. This moment of anticipation guides the exhibition, where uncertainty creates a space for experimentation and possibility.
Envisioning a shared near future with boldness and hope in a time of global upheaval, Coyote Time brings together fifty new artist commissions and selected historical artworks presented at public sites throughout the city. Counterpublic’s third triennial edition, Coyote Time, will present daring new artist projects, public programs and events, and long-lasting civic initiatives centering urgent crises including climate, education, and immigration.
