Holger Lang is an artist and filmmaker from Austria. He is working in interdisciplinary fields and enjoys the idea of cross-country investigations. The twilight between abstract and narrative structures and between found and performed actions is frequently contained in his work. Laura Zuspan Exoastroalienology is an exhibition of new watercolor and ink paintings by Laura Zuspan, a New York City based interdisciplinary artist. These paintings explore the symbolism of extraterrestrials and the urban myth's that surround them. Many of Laura Zuspan's works involve the psychological realms of fantasy with a humorous touch of playfulness. In this exhibition, Zuspan illustrates her awe of the unknown in depictions of alien activity and their imagined "earthly" intervention's, be they friendly or disturbing. Through this work, Zuspan gestures at the importance of universal/global collective intelligence. Julie Pieri Hungry? Craving luscious fruits or vegetables? Having trouble finding the perfect recipe that calls for shortening or canned goods? Julie Anne Pieri's latest series, "Delicious", blends recipes from Betty Crocker 1971 Recipe Card Collection with glamorous earthly, natural delights! PIeri is a Front collective member from New Orleans and a children's art educator. Her work entertains mediums such as collage, quilting, drawing, costume and performance videos. Depending on her mood and intuition, she explores common hidden obsessions, personal strife and consumer fetishism. Opening Reception: Saturday April 11th, 6-10pm |
