SUMMARY:i'm going to eat you alive
DESCRIPTION:Pica-afflicted geologist Roach is documenting his van life road trip across America.

SUMMARY:Chaos and Belief
DESCRIPTION: Xin: Chaos and BeliefOct. 4-24\, 2024\nCurated by Richard Vine\nOpening reception:\nOct. 5\, 2024\, 5-7 pm\, with a performance by the artist at 6:00 pm\nDialogue between Xin Song and Richard Vine: Oct. 24\, 5-6 pm\n“Chaos and Belief\,” a midcareer solo exhibition by Beijing-born\, New York-based artist Xin Song\, challenges every preconception viewers might have about Chinese papercutting. A folk art form with a roughly 2\,000-year history\, cutting paper into intricate abstract patterns or stylized representations of people\, flora\, animals\, or mixed scenes\, is a traditional way of decorating walls and window\, giving small gifts\, and marking special occasions such as holidays\, birthdays\, or anniversaries.\nLike all forms of “feudal” cultural legacy\, this practice was suppressed or neglected during the Cultural Revolution (1966-76)\, when Socialist Realism was the one-and-only officially sanctioned art style in China. Only after the death of Mao Zedong\, when both traditionalism and experimentation reemerged\, did papercutting win recognition as a modern-art practice.\nCurated by art critic Richard Vine\, “Chaos and Belief” is a compact survey of Song’s recent work\, emphasizing both its formal diversity and its playful yet deeply serious intent. The selection reveals that Song’s most popular works—those that highlight quilt-like patterns or floral motifs—stand halfway between the two poles of her ongoing artistic concern. One is the emotional turmoil at the center of our psychic life\, personal and collective; the other is our capacity for altruistic commitment. Thus images of flowers\, stylized waves\, and decorative abstractions share the gallery space with a huge\, turbulent installation whose twisting and curling paper streamers seem to explode from the wall. Offsetting this visual outburst is an orderly display of cutout portrait heads of some of the artist’s moral heroes—Che Guevara\, Aung San Suu Kyi\, Hilary Clinton\, Bruce Lee\, Laozi\, and others.\nThe complexity of Song’s vision places her in dialogue with other practitioners of global contemporary papercutting. Her work is edgier than that of Britain’s comforting Rob Ryan—the paper strips in some of Song’s earlier innocuous-seeming compositions were cut from porn magazines—but not as directly confrontational as Kara Walker’s classic antiracist silhouette nightmares. Song’s installations\, which fill and animate large spaces\, resonate with the cardboard extravaganzas of Thomas Hirsh\, and both artists owe a debt to the modernist master Kurt Schwitters and his legendary Merzbau. Jess and many other 20th century collagists are clearly antecedents\, and some viewers might detect a hint of painter Charles Burchfield in Song’s jittery\, vibrating way of constructing organic forms.\nIn her opening-night performance\, Song will rapidly\, volcanically\, fill an entire wall with cut and pinned paper. This galvanizing act\, a living mélange of materiality and force\, combines elements of Western performance art and Happenings with the longstanding East Asian belief that an artist can be a medium for the flow of the cosmic-organic energy known as qi.\n

SUMMARY:Away\, You Ethiop!
DESCRIPTION:Away\, You Ethiop! For Shakespeare lovers\, it's a line in A MidSummer Night's Dream. For actor/artist David Samuel\, it's the title of the solo show meets concept album meets short film that tells the story of what it was like to grow up the eldest son in an immigrant Habesha (Ethiopian/Eritrean) household in the DMV. Think of it as if RAMY was a Christian-raised\, fat East African and could also rap and produce music really well (like Donald Glover)\, and really loved the mediums of live theater and storytelling (like Shakespeare). He also has a sick impression of his Dad that really sounds nothing like his Dad. That's Away\, You Ethiop! \nDirected by Danaya Esperanza \nPERFORMANCE TIME:\n– Tuesday\, Oct. 15\, 2024 – 7:30PM

SUMMARY:DD Dorvillier - Dance is the archeologist\, or an idol in the bone.
DESCRIPTION:Co-presented with L’Alliance New York’s Crossing The Line Festival. \nReturning to perform in the US for the first time in several years\, DD Dorvillier engages with her rich history as part of the downtown New York dance and performance scene throughout the 90s and 2000s. A French transplant since 2010\, Dorvillier’s latest solo — a collaboration with sound artist Sébastien Roux — is structured by four consecutive dance scores\, which emerged from a dream after dance practices and research on a handful of little-known archeological sites in France. Dorvillier dances\, digging through the series of scores\, and upon reaching the end\, begins again. The sound recorded from her first round of dances returns to accompany the second – a sonic ghost conjugating the present with the immediate past\, as she moves towards the future. \n“The contrast between my current rural village life in Burgundy (France) and years of artistic development in the bustling cultural centers of New York and later Paris has been an important catalyst: slowing down enough to consider the importance of dancing and making in a context where “culture ” means” growing things”. I understand the importance of my in-between position\, as I move freely between the vestiges of Dracy\, an abandoned medieval village by the cliffs above; and the dance studio La Corvette\, in our garden\, below.” – DD Dorvillier \nConcept\, performance: DD Dorvillier. Sound Design: Sébastien Roux. Light Design: Madeline Best. Artistic Collaborators: Mathieu Bouvier\, Carina Premer. Production: Laura Aknin. Intern: Hsin-Yu Tai.

SUMMARY:Take Root Presents: Jiemin Yang & Synergy Dance Collective NY/Nancy Brier
DESCRIPTION:October 18th & 19th at 8PMAdvance sale tickets: $20 online\nTickets purchased at door: $25 cash or card \n\nJiemin Yang\nPortraits of the Moon is an evocative contemporary dance project that explores the moon's profound symbolism in Chinese culture and examines the theme of separation and reunion among Asian immigrant populations in America. Inspired by ancient lunar myths\, poetry\, and the personal journeys of Asian immigrants\, this innovative production weaves together movement\, text\, and music to create a mesmerizing performance. By honoring Chinese cultural heritage and illuminating the experiences of immigrants within Asian communities\, Portraits of the Moon celebrates diverse identities and invites audiences to connect deeply and reflect on their own cultural roots and stories. \nSynergy Dance Collective NY / Nancy Brier\nA multidisciplinary suite blending dance\, live and recorded music\, spoken word and visual imagery\, Synergy Dance Collective NY’s Water Like This … Water Like That is a full length work-in-progress propelling viewers into the realm of water’s natural beauty\, torrential power and healing properties. It addresses the impact climate change has had on water and how people of the global majority are more likely to experience negative effects from pollution\, unsafe drinking water\, severe weather incidents\, marine plastic pollution and other environmental problems. Through “compassionate contemporary dance … filled with amazing lifts and partnering” (Moro\, QNS)\, Nancy Brier / Synergy Dance Collective NY uncovers our intimately deep connections to water and\, through a dynamic sensorial fusion of the arts\, asks what we can do to create positive change.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception | ASMA: Ideal Space for Music and In Practice: Tony Chrenka
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an opening reception celebrating ASMA: Ideal Space for Music and In Practice: Tony Chrenka. \nASMA: Ideal Space for Music\nOn view Oct 31\, 2024 – Feb 3\, 2025 \nSculptureCenter is pleased to present the first institutional exhibition in the United States of artist duo ASMA. Their sculpturally-rooted works stretch the possibilities of materials such as silicon\, resin\, bronze\, steel\, or glass\, often blending artisan craft techniques with synthetic and industrial processes. Their research methodology integrates intuitive responsiveness to a site with conceptual explorations found within the arenas of mythology\, psychology\, and posthumanism\, viewed through a metamodern lens. \nFor their SculptureCenter commission\, ASMA presents Ideal Space for Music\, a shattered narrative tapestry with sculptural characters whose presence evokes theatricality. Drawing on the metaphorical capacity of SculptureCenter’s lower level as a place of subconscious nature\, works in the exhibition will open a conversation around desire and fragmentation. ASMA explores the relationship of desire with the development of language and written literature through the image of joint articulation and within the symbol of ball-jointed dolls (BJDs\, as they are referred to by their manufacturers). The exhibition will feature a newly commissioned series of reflective sculptures\, detailed with low-relief compositions. Accompanying these works\, a group of dramatic sculptural stagings featuring constructed characters will revisit the Frankensteinian notion of disintegration\, evoking themes of contamination and hybridity in the process of self-becoming. \nIn Practice: Tony Chrenka\nOn view Oct 31\, 2024 – Dec 22\, 2024 \nTony Chrenka’s studio practice pursues questions of work and perceptions of the progression of time through photography\, drawing\, and installation. At SculptureCenter\, Chrenka will present a series of wooden relief sculptures and a related wall treatment in a work that posits sculpture as an ongoing manipulation of presence and absence in space over bounded intervals of time.
