Kiddie Pool
is a project space
for living with constant change
Welcome to Kiddie Pool, a residential project space for art & literature in downtown Albany, New York. Join us for occasional readings, screenings and exhibitions as Karley Sullivan and a dynamic group of guest curators tap fellow creators to share their work in an intimate yet remarkably grand setting.
Anonymous
Citizens
Renée Bouchard:
Reneé Bouchard’s Anonymous Citizen series of paintings questions the concept of naming, bearing witness to the tension between the collective "we" and the individual. Color skitters and flows from connection to isolation, embodying the fragile nature of identity in the face of imperialism. Renée Bouchard is a Pollock-Krasner and Puffin Foundation grantee. She has held residencies at the Vermont Studio Center, the Cooper Union and Collar Works.
Viewings available by appointment, between 11am—3pm, through September 6, 2025.
On View
thru September 6
Worlds Within Worlds is a dynamic group show of small works drawn from a local critique group, including photo-sculptures by Kiddie Pool’s own Karley Sullivan. On view through August 23 at Context Collective in Troy
”Worlds Within Worlds grew from a year of artists showing up for one another outside of an institutional setting. This exhibition is both a celebration and a call for more artist-led energy, deeper connection, and room to experiment in the Capital Region.”
—Dustin Loveland, Curator
