I AM NOT A PHOTOGRAPH:
Robert Blake Memorial Exhibition    

Curated By Marina Berio and Martin Weber
May 4 - June 2, 2024

Opening reception: Friday, May 3rd

It is with extreme sadness we announce that our dear friend and founding team member Robert Blake died on October 11, 2023. Robert’s urging was the primary impetus for growing 601Artspace from a private viewing room to the vital public-facing organization it is today. 

Robert Blake was a multi-media and performance artist, photographer, educator, and author. Mr. Blake directed The General Studies Program of the International Center of Photography in New York from 1985-2008. He was visiting artist at the Ecole Superièure Nationale de la Photographie in France in 2008, and curator of “Affinities, Alignments, Collisions,” in 2008 at 601Artspace. I. Mr. Blake was the recipient of an Etant Donnée grant for his solo exhibit, “Legend,” in Paris, in 2000. He was co-founder with Susan Jahoda of the performance art group Hybridaxe, active since 1992.
