Topple the Table of Correspondences

I have a show opening on November 13th at 2nd Floor Projects in San Francisco. For more information, go here. A limited edition broadside will be produced on the occasion of the exhibition, and will include an essay by Scott Treleaven. Much love and thanks to Kevin Killian and Margaret Tedesco for bringing me out to the West Coast.

Intimacies
Curated by John Neff and Lorelei Stewart
September 9-October 22, 2011
Reception: Friday, September 9, 5-8 pm

In the six artists’ works in Intimacies the camera is an active agent in the creation of social events, not just a recording instrument in the hands of an autonomous documentarian. The primarily photographic and video works, some of which include painting and sculptural elements, focus on charged interpersonal encounters. Beyond serving as indices of such encounters, the included artworks reveal the reconfigured effects of such exchanges, disclosing the complexity of authorship, agency, and viewership in today’s world.
