FLOOD
Mike Nesbit, 2017
Precast concrete, waterproofing
Standard Oil Building (Omaha, NE)


FLOOD is an exhibition in partnership with Mike Nesbit Studio, AIA Omaha, Enterprise Precast Concrete, Dicon Corporation, Tremco & Stetson Building Products, and Gallery 1516 at the historic Omaha Standard Oil Building by architectural designer and artist Mike Nesbit.  FLOOD continues the artist’s trajectory of installing works outside of a traditional museum setting. The exhibition creates a discussion between art and industrial architecture, using an historical part of Omaha by transforming the space temporarily to re-imagine how pieces of art can be shown. 

The show is antithetical to the contemporary landmark museum that requires overarching budgets to produce something new. As an alternative, FLOOD utilizes the existing urban fabric to create a museum out of the infrastructure that already exists, a museum that becomes interdependent through partnerships with local industry and small businesses. This is the museum of the 21st century.
