PROSCENIUM: jan 10th – feb 6th

Opening reception on Saturday, January 17th, from 7-10pm

Open Source Gallery presents “PROSCENIUM”, a video installation that will reframe foot traffic along South Slope’s 17th street this winter. From January 10 – February 6, 2009, a video loop will be projected onto the storefront window from the gallery’s interior. The videos themselves are a collection of gestures and actions that are as much about mood as they are about space. Join us for an opening reception on Saturday, January 17th, from 7-10pm. More details on “PROSCENIUM” and the Open Source Gallery can be found at www.open-source-gallery.org.

“The interior of the gallery will function as a stage while the window will be the proscenium or “4th wall”. The video loop will serve as the performance and the dramatic “interjection” out onto the street and to the passerby.”

“PROSCENIUM” features works by artists: Ethan Crenson and Amand Alic, Mark Chandler, Leigh Davis, Stefanie Koseff, Pascal Murer, Serge Onnen, and Miho Suzuki.

Miho Suzuki: Hula Hoop (2001)

Leigh Davis: Steam Room (8 min loop)
