Collins & Milazzo exhibitions

The Collins & Milazzo exhibitions were a series of art exhibitions curated by the team Tricia Collins and Richard Milazzo, mainly in New York in the mid-1980s to early 1990s.[1][2]

From 1982 to 1984 the pair founded, edited and published Effects : Magazine for New Art Theory.[3]:191[4][5] Drawing on their experience with the magazine, in 1984 Collins & Milazzo began working together as curators to transform the group show into a critical statement.[6][7] Collins & Milazzo brought to prominence a new generation of artists in the 1980s.[8] It was their exhibitions and writings that originally fashioned the theoretical context for a new kind of Post-conceptual art that argued simultaneously against Neo-Expressionism and Picture-Theory Art.[9][10] It was through this context that the work of many of the artists associated with Neo-Conceptualism (or what the critics reductively called Simulationism and Neo Geo) was first brought together.[11]
