Artists Scramble to Rescue Works After Queens Building Fire

A fire broke out on June 8 at an artist-in-residence loft building at 10-15 48th Avenue in Long Island City, Queens, forcing artists Linda Ganjian and Ilan Averbach to scramble to rescue decades of work. Ganjian, known for intricate table-top sculptures and murals at JFK terminals, spent the day salvaging 20 years of sculptures and mixed-media works from water damage; she lost one collage and noted fixable water damage on a few others. The three-alarm blaze, contained in just over two hours, sent three firefighters to local hospitals, and the cause remains under investigation. The building received a full vacate order due to extensive charring and structural hazards, and tenants have not been given a timeline to retrieve belongings.

Once controversial, Austin’s Space 01 art gallery looks to provide opportunities for artists

Artist and musician Trejon D’Angelo Williams runs Space 01, a gallery that relocated from Logan Square to the Austin neighborhood of Chicago nearly a year ago after controversy. The previous location was cited for lacking a proper license, and Williams was arrested for allegedly shoving a police officer during a noise complaint investigation—charges he denied. He was convicted of a misdemeanor and sentenced to community service. Now operating on the second floor of an industrial building at 4850-60 W. Bloomingdale Ave., Space 01 has hosted several exhibitions and is launching workshops and a new show in late June. Williams, a Garfield Park resident, took over the original storefront after the death of fellow artist Octavia Marie-Madeleine Reese, who ran the Logan Square Immersive Arts Co-Operative.
