QMAD, Queens Media Arts Development, continues the presentation of A-Lab Forum in November. The program is a series of monthly discussions designed as an opportunity for artists, working in various media, to present their work, share their visions and ideas in relation to selected topics and concepts in the field of art production, collaboration, and critical thinking. Each forum consists of a presentation by selected artists, followed by a discussion period with attending audience. Participating artists are identified and invited by the curator / facilitator from a pull of entries for that month. Forums are open to the general public, and are free of charge.
A-Lab Forum: PORTRAITURE focuses on notions of Photo Portraiture, their meaning and mythology in the actual context of digital production. In addition, the program explores questions pertaining to the nature of portraiture as object of art, documentation of a lucrative reality or as a simple expression of the photographed subject. Selected and invited artists / photographers explore and use Portraiture as testimony of contemporary art practice or representation of a socio-historical moment. Many of the works originate as individual explorations while others are part of a body of work. Curated by Maria Fernanda Hubeaut.

About A-Lab:
A-Lab is an artists’ collective initiated by New-media artist, Hector Canonge. From its inception in 2009, A-Lab's mission has been to promote and forge stronger collaborative projects for artists working and/or living in NYC. A-Lab is an independent initiative whose mission is to inform and assist artists in various aspects of their development. A-Lab's monthly meetings have been designed as a collaborative effort among artists to share resources, know-how, and experience to compete in the market place. In addition, A-Lab highly encourages and supports social activities to take place in local businesses and institutions in New York City. The convergence of the Arts and Community Building is another important component of the A-Lab as members can propose performances, shows, music gatherings, poetry readings, projections, public interventions, and more, in and around the various boroughs.
