The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis is pleased to announce The Front Room, its newly established exhibition space. Running alongside the large-scale and long-term projects in the Main Galleries, The Front Room operates at a different rhythm, with exhibitions lasting anywhere from a day to a few weeks. Designed for more reactive, nimble, and experimental exhibitions—and devoted to lesser-established and younger artists who work internationally, nationally, and locally—this ongoing exhibition series tests the boundaries of conventional programming and echoes the elasticity and simultaneity of contemporary culture. While each Front Room project operates by loose associations from one to the next, the program remains independent from the Main Galleries. The Front Room allows the museum to reflect the immediacy and urgency of art-making in our contemporary moment and serves as an always-active curatorial sketch-book.
