ben lerner transcription artwork rose salane rings

Novelist Ben Lerner reflects on Rose Salane’s installation '60 Detected Rings (1991–2021)' as part of a new series exploring impactful artworks. The piece consists of rings recovered by a metal detectorist over three decades in Atlantic City, which Salane subsequently analyzed through laboratory 'melt value' reports and psychic readings. Lerner describes the work as a profound exercise in 'revaluation,' where discarded objects are transformed into auratic relics through scientific and spiritual inquiry.

Nickola Pottinger's first solo museum exhibition, "fos born," is on view at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum through January 11. The show was deeply influenced by her pregnancy with her daughter Zora, which she discovered shortly after securing the exhibition. Pottinger's work has evolved from paper pulp wall reliefs into figurative sculptures that incorporate Jamaican folklore, family history, and personal artifacts, such as a cast of her pregnant torso and hair clips from her childhood. Her husband, fellow artist Zahar Vaks, assisted in creating the silicone mold for one piece moments before she went into labor.
