The exhibition is on view Saturday, February 18, through Saturday, March 18, at the SVA Flatiron Gallery, 133/141 West 21st Street, New York City. Admission is free and open to the public.“Your Turn” is an exhibition organized around the therapeutic practice of response art, a tool for art therapists to process the emotional, verbal and non-verbal content that surfaces in their professional practice. With this exhibition, graduate art therapy students and participants from their internship sites invite visitors to reply to their response art using drawing materials that are available throughout the gallery.Art therapists strive to take in what people are saying as much as possible, particularly through art materials and imagery. Making art in response to these relational situations increases the therapist’s empathy. Sharing the results in session can validate the experience and facilitate understanding in the therapeutic relationship.In a civic revision, “Your Turn” expands response art to the gallery-going public. As visitors are drawn to artwork in the gallery, drawing materials are available for them to visually express their reflections, feelings and reactions on tickets. Completed tickets will then be added to a corresponding container. Ticket responses enable visitors to speak directly to artists, allow visitors to communicate with artists who are not present and provide visitors with a way to enhance interactions between people in and beyond the gallery. These tickets will connect diverse people through art.MPS Art Therapy at SVA equips students with a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach, integrating the experiential components of art therapy within a framework of academic theory and clinical application via an internship program and art practice. Fundamental to the program is the concept that the art therapist and client work together and thus can affect each other’s growth.
