NYAB Event - Isaac Resnikoff “Slow Days, Fast Company”

Isaac Resnikoff “Slow Days, Fast Company”

Louis B. James Gallery

This event has ended.

“No one likes to be confronted with a bunch of disparate details that God only knows what they mean. I can’t get a thread to go through to the end and make a straightforward novel. I can’t keep everything in my lap, or stop rising flurries of sudden blind meaning. But perhaps if the details are all put together, a certain pulse and sense of place will emerge, and the integrity of empty space with occasional figures in the landscape can be understood at leisure and in full, no matter how fast the company.”

Slow Days, Fast Company
Eve Babitz, 1974

This is a slow show, or it is made of slow parts.
It contains clocks, poles, a block of pitch, and 36 bottles of wine.
