Fuse Works’ exploration of role of the editioned “thing” in contemporary art.
The 32 artists in the exhibition practice a broad range of approaches to the
multiple as a critical medium. The results range from doormats (Celeste Fichter) to predator drone hummingbird
feeders (John Marriott) to paper coffee cups (Christina Kelly) to mutilated die-cast car
models (Peter Feigenbaum).
The audio and video contributions include a new
limited edition audio cassette byCorcorax (Tmm Mulligan and Xhe Xhen), a
screen printed 10” vinyl record by Jeremy Slater (published by Fuse Works),
and a new video by Naval Cassidy (aka Jonathan Giles).
Works on paper include the Hollywood movie
posters overlaid with the artist’s detailed memories of the film (Amanda Tiller), a graphically disassembled and
refigured pin-up on newsprint (Sarah Vogwill) and an anti-capitalist agitprop
poster that doubles as tissue paper to wrap purchases from the gallery (James Leonard, also published by Fuse Works).
Performances: June 21st
& 22nd at 8 pm, FREE, Mark Stilwell presents The Super Defense
Force vs. The Tittanno Beasts (The Transformation of the Omega Redeemer).
The performance installation will transform the gallery into a massive
cityscape constructed of cardboard and plastic detritus reclaimed from the
trash. In this miniature city massive monsters and robots made of similar
materials clash in loud combat accompanied by live music and stage effects. The
performance is produced as part of Make Music New York.
Saturday June 29th at 7 pm, FREE, performances by
Naval Cassidy, Jeremy Slater and Corcorax. Naval Cassidy will create instant
cinema using props and video from his multiple, Hot Lips. Jeremy
Slater will incorporate the audio from his 10” LP Seoul, with field
recordings and video. Corocorax (Tmm Mulligan and Xhe Xhen) will perform
variations on Tape/Circles, their new cassette-only release.
