New York, NY - Daniel Gordon '04 and Walead Beshty '99 in MoMA Exhibition

Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - Monday, January 11, 2010
MoMA, 11 West 53rd Street

New Photography 2009 is a thematic presentation of significant recent work in photography that examines and expands the conventional definitions of the medium. Although the six artists in this installation—Walead Beshty '99, Daniel Gordon 04, Leslie Hewitt, Carter Mull, Sterling Ruby, and Sara VanDerBeek—represent diverse points of view, working methods, and pictorial modes ranging from abstract to representational, their images all begin in the studio or the darkroom and result from processes involving collection, assembly, and manipulation. Many of the works are made with everyday materials and objects, as well as images from the Internet, magazines, newspapers, and books. Some of the artists also work in other mediums and their pictures relate to disciplines such as drawing, sculpture, and installation. As traditional photographic techniques are being quickly replaced by digital technologies, the artists included here examine the process and structure of making photographs.

Brooklyn, NY - Performance/Exhibition by Doug Henderson '82 at Pierogi

Saturday, November 7, 2009 - Sunday, December 27, 2009
191 North 14th Street, Brooklyn

Brooklyn and Berlin based sound artist Doug Henderson ’82’s Music for 100 Carpenters will be performed and installed at BOILER @ Pierogi in Williamsburg.

Music for 100 Carpenters is a theatrical surround-sound music performance, enlisting 100 skilled and unskilled tradespeople. Prying at Stockhausen’s convolution of rhythm and timbre, 100 hammers, 100 blocks of wood and some 10,000 nails of varying sizes are brought to bear in a real-time, real-world articulation of complex computer synthesis. Under the guidance of job supervisors, thousands of hammer blows become waves of tonal murmur, threaded with rustlings of nails and occasional snarls of righteous indignation. The performers are organized into work crews with lists of tasks and closely timed schedules, and arranged in a circle around the audience. Toolbelts, sweat and lunchboxes are part of the score. For the installation phase, a bird’s eye view of the performance is projected on the floor, with the debris from the show left in place, accompanied by a superbly detailed six channel surround sound recording.

Performances: Saturday and Sunday, November 7 and 8 at 8:00 p.m.

Installation: November 11 – December 27, 2009.

New York, NY - Mark Street '86 Co-curates Film Exhibition

Saturday, November 14, 2009 at 8:00 pm
Millennium Film Workshop, 66 E 4th Street

Ventana al Sur: An Evening of Argentine Experimental Films
This rollicking evening of challenging, expressive, and oppositional Argentine cinema offers a window onto makers shredding formal niceties, relishing in risk, and daring to access the sublime. From an achingly beautiful evocation of an hourglass to a darkly humorous evisceration of the tenets of the stock market, this program will take us to the land where summer is winter and winter is summer and render our souls topsy-turvy for a bit too. For the last two summers, NYC experimental filmmakers Mark Street '86 and Lynne Sachs immersed themselves in the Buenos Aires film community through a variety of collaborative cinematic endeavors. In addition to shooting Super 8 movies with their artist peers in town, Street and Sachs spent time meeting and watching the works of local moving image makers – some young firebrands and some veterans who have been expanding the parameters of the medium since the early 1960s.  (88min TRT.)

Tonight’s artists include: Ernesto Baca, Enrique Bernacchini, Macarena Gagliardi, Ruben Guzman, Narcisa Hirsch, Leandro Katz, Leandro Listorti, Pablo Marin, Liliana Porter, Tomas Rautenstrauch, Sergio Subeero, and Diego Trerotoia.
