Parallel Play
Ginger Brooks Takahashi, Lee Maida, Jen Smith
Los Angeles based Artist Curated Projects presents Parallel Play, a three-woman show, featuring the work of Ginger Brooks Takahashi, Lee Maida and Jen Smith. The work in Parallel Play considers the materiality of bodily effort and pleasure as it intervenes with craft, sexuality and politics. Communal strategies of dialogue and intervention inform the exhibition.

NY: TIME - LIFE PART II at Taxter and Spengleman
Catered by NEWJERSEYY (with a platform by Nathan Carter)
June 26 - July 31, 2009
Opening reception Friday, June 26th, 6 -8 PM
NEW SUMMER HOURS : MONDAY - FRIDAY 12 -6
TIME LIFE Part II picks up where Part I left off, fighting against
that inevitable shut-down with an overflow of objects, bodies, paper
trails, and presentations. A group show of group shows, all
originally presented at other venues, that are ripped-off, restaged
and resurrected here. Each is vying for space and attention, creating
unforeseen combinations of work and ideologies, frictions, factions
and revelations. The individual artists are still legible, but the
collectivity of one show seen in contrast to others might resemble The
Warriors where all the individual gangs gather in a ragtag summit of
juvenile delinquency.
