Join us for a weekend exhibition celebrating the conclusion of Alex Mari's conceptual performance and installation work SLOW HUNTING.
In this year-long itinerary, originally researched and performed with the Yellow Fish Durational Performance Art Festival VI in NYC, SLOW HUNTING underwent 3 phases of development: The Gaze, The Hunt, and The Retreat. Each phase sought to investigate and dishevel the corrupt, conditioned foundations of our desire. Through a fantastical narrative of “removing the libidinal device,” Alex Mari examines the processes of desire first through scheduled online "observations" morphed into video art, accumulative site-specific followings in NYC (the impact of their spectacle and their residual phantom tracings), and finally through a manifested removal of the libidinal organ itself in order to create space for “something new.”
Reception: Saturday, October 2, 6-9pm
