Having Adrian Schiess at the IMA last fall to install his exhibition was a unique experience for the whole group that worked on the show. During the installation, I spent the better part of a week working with contemporary curator Rebecca Uchill, (whose IMA employee profile includes some Schiess installation video), and a host of other folks helping to install the works – everyone played a part from marketing to installation to the Nuggets to security. Though the physical labor wasn’t great, the work was demanding and the result was remarkable: the IMA has installed Adrian’s largest solo exhibition, and his first solo exhibition in the U.S.
