Performance Art Preserved, in the Flesh MOMA SHOW
There is a new exhibit in the MOMA that i will be attending at some point in the next few days. The exhibit is a performance art exhibit by Marina Abramovic, it is a replication of previous performance art pieces she and her husband have done. She is determined to prove that performance art can be replicated in a museum setting for the masses and believes that her exhibit does just that this will be an interesting exhibit to say the least, see you there.
CREATIVE THRIFT SHOP
Another show i attended this following week was at the Creative Thrift Shop on 38 Marcy Ave. in williamsburg Brooklyn. The gallery is an interesting little space that apparent ly has been there for 13 years. I spoke to the director and she explained that the gallery has been in the same place for 13 years and that it is run by 2 women who also have a gallery in Berlin germany where the trade of shows back and forth through boht locations, which is quite interesting. The main show on display was an installation peice by Ron Rocco the show was named SHAKE UP1. All of the pictures displayed here are from that specific work of art .

The Invisible Dog
This past weekend i attended a showing of several works of at the Gallery know as the invisible dog in Brooklyn New York. The gallery, located on Bergen St., opened only six months ago and is relatively new i was particularly interested in viewing a specific peice at on display known at The Ant by Xavier Roux. Which is a large quite fantastic sculpture of an ant with atop hat based on a french poem of the same title. The poem is as follows
An 18-meter long ant With a hat on its head That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
An ant pulling a cart Full of penguins and ducks That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
An ant speaking French, Speaking Latin and Javanese, That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
Hey! Why not?
While there i spoke to the gallery dirctor named Simon who was willing to answer a few questions about the work on display and the space itself. The space is not as large as some galleries but has a nice collection of work inside i found the place quite interesting like a workshop of sorts.
