‍

Join EarlyWork and GERTIE at Corbett vs. Dempsey in celebration of B. Ingrid Olson’s solo exhibition, All Lock No Key.

‍

The artist, together with the CvsD team, will lead a guided walkthrough of the show, sharing the curatorial framework behind the exhibition and offering insight into Olson’s practice and the work on view. And of course, no night at CvsD would be complete without music. After exploring Olson’s work, we’ll turn up the volume with an intimate vinyl listening session curated by the artist, pulled straight from gallery founder's John Corbett and Jim Dempsey’s remarkable collection!

‍

To make our time at CvsD even more special, members are invited to remain for the second chapter of the evening; the next seated dinner in our Curious Palette dining series, where the experience will continue to unfold over a thoughtfully composed four course meal by TXA TXA Club inspired by the exhibition.

‍

This night of art, sonic exploration, and inspired dining is not one to miss! Whether you come solely for the walkthrough, or if you're partaking in the full expereince—come ready to look, listen, and linger.

‍

Chapter I: Guided walkthrough and vinyl listening session (included in monthly programming, standard RSVP)

ABOUT B. INGRID OLSON

In her omnidimensional work, Chicago-based artist B. Ingrid Olson (born 1987, Denver) engages the reciprocities between photography, sculpture, and architecture. Poetically testing the capacities of the human body in relation to architectural conditions, she calls attention to the ways that gender and power are implicated in the physical and psychological structuring of space.

Olson’s work has been the focus of solo exhibitions internationally, most recently at Midway Contemporary Art, Minneapolis; Kunstverein Braunschweig, Germany; fluent, Santander, Spain; Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Secession, Vienna. She participated in the 2024 Whitney Biennial and New Photography 2018 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

DID YOU SAY VINYL?

Gallery founders John Corbett and Jim Dempsey are renowned not only for their exhibitions, but also for their deep engagement with sound through extensive record collecting and running their own label, spotlighting jazz, free jazz, improvised and experimental music, artist-driven projects, and rare reissues of out-of-print LPs.
