Curated by Phong H. Bui and Cal McKeever

Kady JLKR was recently selected for inclusion in Rail Curatorial Projects' new exhibtion Singing in Unison. This is the seventh installment of an ongoing exhibition series at Industry City, inspired by an underlying philosophy that runs through American history: one which advocates for “the art of joining,” an essential gesture to heal our divided social and political life.
Once a postage facility, the popup site measures 16,000 square feet, and has been remodeled to showcase works made by artists young and old, taught and self taught, free from labels. These unique contributions, seen as a democratic vista, represent a symphony of individual creations that celebrates culture for all.
Curators Phong H. Bui and Cal McKeever (pictured above with Charles F. Stuckey) chose her artwork, Central Park — Derald (2007–19), placing it along side other notable artists including Terry Adkins, Jennifer Bartlett, Tony Bechara, Emma Bee Bernstein, Lauren Bon & Metabolic Studio, Katherine Bradford, Phong H.
