    AGENT FROM THE OUTLANDS CATHERINE MOSLEY ———— NEW WORK “Sometimes reality is too complex for oral communication.” Enter the gravelly teachings of the fascist Alpha 60 computer, following the musical dragnet of the films opening frames. I am referring, of course, to Jean- Luc Godard’s kooky 1965 fusion of science fiction, pulp, and surrealism — [...]

    On Fire, 2

    Saturday, February 9, 2013

    Yeah, this is signage directing you to a youtube trailer for a Calvin Klein ad campaign called Provocations.  Looks like a fireball in a kind of Farnsworthy house and it’s probably not a stretch to say that it’s meant to look like art.  Another raid? More worries about high water.  The house’s real close to [...]

    On Fire, 1

    Sunday, January 27, 2013

    The end of civilization?  Douglas Gordon’s The End of Civilization. Tattoed artist and camera operators.  It’s a location shoot, has its own making of video and looks like Hollywood.  Calling James Franco. Who?

    Allow me a moment’s nostalgia. Perhaps it isn’t so strange how accustomed we all became to the Mudman. It was 1980’s New York; New York then as opposed to New York now. There were still transvestite bikers, and the guy doing the ceramics thing all over the East Village. There was the Duckman wandering lower [...]

    House Party by Andrew Ohanesian at Pierogi / The Boiler Space

    Saturday, October 20, 2012

    The House Party, Andrew Ohanesian, Pierogi/The Boiler  by Nick Van Zanten             The The House Party, Andrew Ohanesian’s “full-scale, participant activated installation” at Pierogi’s The Boiler space in Brooklyn is impressively effective in creating a displacement and a forum for discourse.  The effect on the viewer is total, and achieves exactly what the artist aimed [...]
