A little behind on these week's announcement, but we have 2 great shows this weekend that should be mentioned here:
*TONIGHT 7pm, Sarah Halpern* presents an evening of moving image and sound performances. For “The Black Bird”, Halpern reappropriates iconic imagery and written texts through the use of cut outs and collage in three live light & sound compositions involving 16mm film, filmless projection, and handmade 35mm film slides. Musician Matt Wellins joins Halpern on the final piece of the night. Admission $6**- SARAH HALPERN is an artist working with 16mm film, collage on paper, 35mm slides, music and performance. Her work is largely focused on cinematic time and the active role of the viewer. Halpern’s work been shown previously at venues including The Museum of Moving Image, The Kitchen, Participant Inc, Anthology Film Archives, and Microscope Gallery. Halpern holds a B.A. in Film and Electronic Arts from Bard College. *SUN 5.19, 7PM* DEEP LEAP MICROCINEMA: WAY STATIONS organized & presented by Jesse Malmed featuring works by Mary Helena Clark, Clint Enns, Claire L. Evans, Duane LInklater, Christine Negus, Chris Rice, Fern Silva, and Deborah Stratman admission $6 For the third time in almost as many years, artist and curator Jesse Malmed returns (this time from Chicago) to Microscope Gallery to present visionary cinema. Jesse describes the night as: “The space betweens: Tool Time times ten times time, two-tiered translation, hyperspace hypnospace, hot air balloons, Kurt Kren, the trees, the audition, the proscenium wings, smoke on the water, the stars singing back.” A program for, of and by the pore-explorers seeking what’s between the seen and what meaning can be gleaned from the synaptic. Sites of transition and transposition reveal that the heat is often in the imaginative distance between the nameable. These artists—whose work has shown cumulatively in contexts like the Whitney Biennial, Documenta, Rotterdam and the Deep Leap Microcinema—each evince a fascination with these nether spaces that is distinct in its method and aims, but work together and apart as friendly bedfellows. The hope is that the spaces between the works—the small ways large files bristle up against each other in the darkness of the cinema—open up the meanings and feelings of their borders.
