P! is a multidisciplinary exhibition space located in New York’s Chinatown. Founded by Prem Krishnamurthy in September 2012, P! extends the curatorial, editorial, and publishing work of Project Projects and proposes an experimental space of display in which the radical possibilities of disparate disciplines, historical periods, and modes of production rub elbows. A free-wheeling combination of project space, commercial gallery, and Mom-and-Pop-Kunsthalle, P! engages with presentation strategies and models to emphasize rupture over tranquility, interference over mere coexistence, transparency over obfuscation, and passion over cool remove.
