openings in NY and noise in the BBC

[LoVid]

We have some new exhibitions opening up this month

*LoVid: The Other Side of Ground
Opening Thursday June 16 6pm-9pm
Mixed Greens
531 west 26th street, 1st floor
New York, New York
http://mixedgreens.com/exhibitions/upcoming.html

Mixed Greens is pleased to present the site-specific window project
The Other Side of Ground by Tali Hinkis and Kyle Lapidus, the artist
duo known as LoVid. Their dynamic, colorful pieces are a masterful mix
of the low- and high-tech. he Other Side of Ground consists of five
large-scale digital prints in the windows of Mixed Greens. The vivid
colors and patterns are created with LoVid’s handmade video
synthesizer, recorded and recomposed into analog prints. The artists’
visual work offers an intensely visceral experience, forming a blended
landscape that incorporates complementary elements from media noise
and abstract painting. They are ultimately interested in the ways in
which the human body and mind observe, process, and respond to natural
and technological environments, as well as how we preserve data,
signals, and memory.

The Painted Ponies Go Up and Down by The CCRT Collaborative is a
kinetic sound sculpture that is solar activated. The sculpture
includes a homemade record player playing a looping homemade record.
The grooves on the record are created by digitally interpreting data
from a weather station. Visually, the sculpture will also reflect data
translation and be inspired by the change of seasons.

*Ongoing until July 17
Contain, Maintain, Sustain
Artisphere
1101 Wilson Boulevard
Arlington, VA
http://www.artisphere.com/calendar/event-details/Visual-Arts/Contain-Maintain-Sustain.aspx

Artisphere, Washington Project for the Arts (WPA), and Washington
Sculptors Group (WSG) have partnered to present Contain, Maintain,
Sustain, an exhibition which was conceived to take stock of the ways
in which concerns around sustainability are being articulated and
visualized by contemporary artists today.

Curators Welmoed Laanstra, Sara Reisman, and Ernesto Santalla selected
a group of 24 international and locally-based artists to present work
that activates and complicates the local/global dynamic that has
historically framed ideas about reuse and conservation of
environmental resources.

*Also, we are honored to have excerpts from our videos be included in
a new series by Adam Curtis the BBC documentarian and writer: All
Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace. We’ve never been more
understood…
