  <Description><![CDATA[We live in a visual culture. Everywhere we look we are bombarded with images often to the point of sensory overload. Images shape our desires, the way we think and the manner in which we connect and interact with the world around us. Images serve as the driving force behind decisions about what to buy, what to believe, what to value, where to go and which people and relationships are worth our time and energy. These images come flying at us in commercials, music videos, television shows, mainstream film and in Internet spam. It is impossible to ignore the sensuality and sexuality of these images…and why should we?

Action: Sex and the Moving Image opening at the Museum of Sex in March 2007, traces the way sex and sexual imagery have impacted film, television, advertising and more contemporary outlets like the internet while simultaneously creating the multi- billion dollar porn industry and influencing popular art such as film, social standards, mores and behaviors.

Sex on film propelled the development of video technologies such as beta players, VCRS, and DVD players that have brought movies of all types into our homes. The Internet, the latest of this stream of technologies, has made sexual imagery more accessible than ever. No matter how much it is discussed, denounced, and demonized sex on film, sex on our televisions, sex on our computer screens and now sex on our mobile devices is here to stay.

Sex, nudity, and innuendo have always been a source of controversy and topics of public discourse and debate. Throughout the history of moving images legislation has affected not only what filmmakers could create, but also what people were “allowed” to see. Sex on film has been banned, censored, edited, and destroyed by those deeming the content to be obscene or immoral. Action: Sex and the Moving Image surveys the history of sex and the moving image over more than 150 years, featuring everything from sex symbols to “sexploitation” films of the 1950s to “porn chic” to contemporary celebrity “home-made” porn. The exhibition aims at providing the tools to become literate in the barrage of sexual driven images in our society.

  <Description><![CDATA[A director of fables, fairy tales, and fantasies, with an aesthetic that incorporates the Gothic, the Grand Guignol, and German Expressionism, Tim Burton has created a body of films—fourteen features released over two and a half decades thus far—that reveal an uncompromised auteurist vision. Burton’s striking visuals and indelible characters make even his blockbuster studio films intimately personal. From adaptations to musicals to stop-motion animated films, his work bears a distinctive, unmistakable point-of-view, and his unique interpretations of well-known comic and literary characters, real-life personalities, and beloved childhood icons have resulted in creations that sometimes surpass their sources. Along with his frequent collaborators—including actors Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter, composer Danny Elfman, production designer Rick Heinrichs, and costume designer Colleen Atwood—Burton has crafted a new canon of beloved characters, from Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice to Jack Skellington and the Corpse Bride.

  <Description><![CDATA[This will be the first exhibition at P.S.1 of works drawn from virtually all of the collecting areas of  The Museum of Modern Art and will fill P.S.1’s second-floor galleries with examples of painting, sculpture, photography, print, illustrated books, design, drawing, media, and film, nearly all produced during the year 1969. These works will explore the artistic aesthetic incited by a period marked with revolution and socio-political tumult. Within the collection show will be a series of interventions by a current generation of artists whose work will refract the concerns of 1969 and the MoMA collection forty years after the original date and on the 80th anniversary of the museum.

  <Description><![CDATA[To celebrate the recent acquisition of newly struck prints of thirty-six films by Frederick Wiseman (b. 1930, Boston), The Museum of Modern Art presents a comprehensive retrospective of the director’s work. Featuring three to four films each month, this yearlong survey opens with &quot;Basic Training&quot; (1971), followed by a conversation with Wiseman and curator Josh Siegel, and spans his entire career, from &quot;Titicut Follies&quot; (1967) to his two most recent projects, &quot;La Danse—The Paris Opera Ballet&quot; (2009) and &quot;Boxing Gym&quot; (2010). For more than four decades, Wiseman has used a lightweight 16mm camera and portable sound equipment to study human behavior in all its contradictory and unpredictable manifestations, particularly in institutional or regimented situations where authority creates an imbalance of power, or where democracy is at work. Like the great novelists of the nineteenth century, Wiseman combines epic narrative with intimate portraiture. His films comprise a grand panorama of American life (and more recently, the cultural life of Paris)—a kind of modern-day comédie humaine that, quite astonishingly, never loses its vitality or its currency. And though Wiseman approaches his subjects—doctors, ballet dancers, soldiers, students, welfare recipients, factory workers, fashion models, zookeepers, victims of domestic violence, Benedictine monks, the terminally ill—with a minimum of intrusion or influence, he brings a sensitive but trustworthy eye, a lawyer’s penetrating skepticism, and the dramatic impulses of a storyteller to arrive at what Eugène Ionesco, one of his favorite playwrights, called an “imaginative truth.” All films are directed, edited, and produced by Wiseman and from the U.S.

  <Description><![CDATA[Directed and Produced by Jonathon Keats Plants have roots. As a consequence of this simple fact, they do not travel naturally, lacking the chance to experience the world's vast diversity, and even missing out on the many subcultures and microclimates of New York City. In order to let flora encounter distant realms vicariously, conceptual artist Jonathon Keats presents a series of travel documentaries specifically targeted to the plant kingdom.

Given their ability to perform photosynthesis, plants are a fit audience for cinema. These travel documentaries exploit that affinity, screening onto plants' leaves a selection of skies – the ultimate botanical tourist attraction – filmed in the United States and Europe. Since plants do not have human eyesight, and perceive light only in aggregate, footage is projected onto a scrim which diffuses the picture, streaming subtly changing tints of blue onto the foliage below.

People are also invited to visit. But of course, human experience will be second-hand: Strange Skies is presented for the entertainment of plants.

  <Description><![CDATA[Sounds from the Black Box, Kentridge’s most recent animation work and the latest in his long series of collaborations with South African composer Philip Miller. A follow-up to and expansion of the pair’s “9 Drawings for Projection” project, the piece combines Kentridge's stunning animations with scores by Miller, performed live by the NYC-based Ensemble Pi. 

The arts&gt;World Financial Center screenings will correspond with a Kentridge exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art (Feb 24–March 17) and a Kentridge-directed-and-designed production of Shostakovich’s The Nose at the Metropolitan Opera (March 5–25). Kentridge’s omnipresence prompted a recent New Yorker profile to observe, “It’s hard to remember when a visual artist has cut such a wide swath in the city’s cultural life, or spanned so many disciplines with such aplomb.”]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Focusing on the 1960s, this multimedia exhibition will explore the cross-cultural relations between a number of European countries’ cinematography and fashion and their reception in modern US culture. In particular, the show will present for the first time archival materials such as photographs, costume sketches, interviews with stars, (Archivio San Biagio, Cesena and Roberto Palmas archive), Italian TV commercials from RAI, the Italian State Television company; as well as feature films by Federico Fellini (&quot;La Dolce Vita;&quot; &quot;8 1/2&quot;), Michelangelo Antonioni’s (&quot;L’Avventura,&quot; &quot;La Notte,&quot; &quot;Red Desert,&quot; &quot;Blow Up,&quot; &quot;Zabriskie Point&quot;), Jean Luc Godard (&quot;Breathless;&quot; &quot;Contempt&quot;), Luchino Visconti’s (&quot;Rocco and his Brothers&quot;), Pier Paolo Pasolini,(&quot;Accattone,&quot; &quot;Teorema&quot;), Elio Petri, (&quot;The 10th Victim&quot;), Ingmar Bergman (&quot;Persona&quot;); and clothing in the style of the period. The juxtaposition of this rich and diverse material along with film screenings will allow viewers to critically revisit one of the most important and innovative decades of the twentieth century. A symposium featuring internationally renowned scholars in the fields of film, art, and fashion such as Adriana Berselli, the costume designer who worked with Antonioni’s &quot;L’Avventura,&quot; will explore the multifaceted relationship between fashion and film and their impact on the construction and projection of personal and collective identities and style. Testifying to the enormous impact the 1960s and its aesthetics has had on contemporary culture is the popularity of a TV show such as &quot;Mad Men&quot; and recent feature films such as Lone Scherfig’s &quot;An Education&quot; or Tom Ford’s &quot;A Single Man,&quot; both set in the 1960s. 2010 will also mark the fiftieth anniversary of films such as &quot;La Dolce Vita&quot; by Federico Fellini and &quot;L’Avventura&quot; by Michelangelo Antonioni, &quot;Rocco and his Brothers,&quot; by Luchino Visconti and &quot;Breathless&quot; (Jean Luc Godard), which made known to the world and especially US audiences, Italian and European culture, style, and identity. The exhibition will, in fact, explore the European-US connection in cinema and fashion, two major industries that always feed off each other. The James Gallery's location on New York's major midtown thoroughfare, in a building that once housed the historic B. Altman Department store, makes it a perfect fit for this exhibition, which will explore the interactions between geographic spaces (cities and countries); public spaces, the street, the movie theatre, the department store, and private spaces through the viewing of films where clothes are in action. ]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Bruce Conner was no stranger to death. On September 12, 1959, the first exhibition of &quot;The Late Bruce&quot; CONNER opened at the Bay Area Spatsa Gallery. While the work was in fact late work, to Conner’s mind every piece, whether collage or assemblage, was composed of objects that had experienced a previous life. The Gallery represented a sepulcher containing beings no longer of this world, intended to be revered and worshipped from afar. 
For this first actually posthumous exhibition for Bruce Conner at Susan Inglett Gallery, the gallery will exhibit the late collage work of the late Bruce Conner in the main gallery accompanied by film in Gallery II. Infused with the clarity that is said to accompany the end of life, these wood engraving collages are assuredly the most magnificent and moving work of Conner’s lifetime. Accompanied by what was intended to be his last finished masterwork in film, “Easter Morning,” the exhibition reaches a visual transcendence as we follow the artist through a metaphysical quest towards renewal and rebirth.

  <Description><![CDATA[“Double-Bill” is a group exhibition curated by New Commissions artist Redmond Entwistle that includes his new film Monuments along with works by Mary Billyou, Suzanne Goldenberg, Rafael Sánchez, and Kathleen White.

Starting with Monuments, a retelling of Post-Minimalism’s relationship to the landscapes of New York and New Jersey, “Double-Bill” brings together a series of works that share B-cinema’s ethics of independent production and it’s achievement of magical and critical effects through minimal means. Echoing the format of self-organized cinema spaces, a temporary cinema will be assembled in the gallery featuring twice-daily screenings of Monuments. Beyond the removed fourth wall of the cinema space, Billyou’s text paintings, Goldenberg’s delicate paper-and-fabric constructions and drawings, and Sánchez and White’s long-running, situational project BOOKS RECORDS TAPES reflect and refract concerns raised by Monuments’ exploration of the legacies of Robert Smithson, Gordon Matta-Clark, and Dan Graham. In considering the uneasy relationship between artists’ intentions – both aesthetic and conceptual – and social realities, “Double Bill” complicates traditional conceptions of artistic communities, their milieus and the social context out of which they emerge.

Monuments will be screened daily at 1 and 4:30 pm.

  <Description><![CDATA[This exhibition explores the life, work, and legacy of Jane Austen (1775–1817), regarded as one of the greatest English novelists. Offering a close-up portrait of the iconic British author, whose popularity has surged over the last two decades with numerous motion picture and television adaptations of her work, the show provides tangible intimacy with Austen through the presentation of more than 100 works, including her manuscripts, personal letters, and related materials, many of which the Morgan has not exhibited in over a quarter century. &quot;A Woman's Wit: Jane Austen's Life and Legacy&quot; also includes first and early illustrated editions of Austen's novels as well as drawings and prints depicting people, places, and events of biographical significance. A highlight of the exhibition is a specially commissioned film by the noted Italian director Francesco Carrozzini, featuring interviews with artists and scholars such as Siri Hustvedt, Fran Lebowitz, Sandy Lerner, Colm Tóibín, Harriet Walter, and Cornel West. The exhibition is organized into three sections: Austen's life and personal letters, her works, her legacy, and concludes with the documentary-style film.

  <Description><![CDATA[Marta Minujín is a prominent voice of the Argentine neo-avant-garde art scene of the 1960s and 70s, with a brilliant international career that helped define the discussion about media, performance, and participation. Minujín is often mentioned as one of the pioneers of happenings. 
Marta Minujín’s Minucode (1968), originally commissioned by the Center for Inter-American Relations (now Americas Society), explored social codes in four groups of leading figures in the arts, business, fashion, and politics in New York through a series of cocktail parties/happenings. Deeply interested in Marshall McLuhan’s theories about the mass media, Minujín created an electronic environment with footage and light and sound shows produced during the happenings. 
MINUCODEs, organized by Gabriela Rangel and José Luis Blondet, revisits that project more than 40 years later. Through recently recovered footage and documents, the exhibition will shed light on the original mythical event.

  <Description><![CDATA[Nummer twaalf revolves around three questions dealing with infinity, each explored in a separate scene: The King's Gambit accepted, the number of stars in the sky and why a piano cannot be tuned or waiting for an earthquake. The film opens with a scene of the artist playing chess with Grandmaster Leonid Yudasin. The two men play on a unique chess-piano created by van der Werve and designed so that each of the 64 squares of the chess board simultaneously functions as a piano key. Yudasin composed a balanced game of chess that opens with the challenge of the King's Gambit (one of the oldest documented chess openings), progresses to the opponent's acceptance and ultimately ends in a draw stalemate. When played on the chess-piano, each move of the carefully-constructed match yields a note, and it is this series of notes which serves as the basis for van der Werve's musical composition. The score continues throughout the film and follows the artist through vast landscapes as he ponders the impossible challenges of counting the stars in the sky and tuning a piano. Van der Werve's futile pursuits juxtaposed with his choice of sites of latent danger (the active volcano Mount St. Helens and the San Andreas Fault in California), follows in the tradition of 19th century Romantic artist's , using the epic of nature as an expression of the sublime.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Hunter College presents Beyond Participation: Hélio Oiticica and Neville D’Almeida in New York. The collaboration between renowned Brazilian artists Hélio Oitica and Nevielle D’Almeida from the late 1960s though the 1970s changed how audiences perceived art, shifting them from passive viewers to active participants. Exhibited for the first time together, the slide-show environment Cosmococa—Programa in progress, CC1 Trashiscapes (1973)is shown alongside D’Almeida’s film Jardim de Guerra (1967), as well as two of Oiticica’s notebooks from 1973 reproduced in facsimile. The dynamic installation CC1 Trashiscapes comprises two projectors flashing 32 slide-photographs onto opposing gallery walls, accompanied by a soundtrack including forró music (typically from the Northeast of Brazil) such as Luis Gonzaga’s baião, Jimi Hendrix songs, street sounds, and voices. Mattresses line the floor, and nail files are available for use by visitors. The audience is invited to relax and recline horizontally while filing their nails in the dark as they watch the images on the surrounding walls.The slides themselves consist of three distinct photographic series: Luis Buñuel’s face on the cover of the New York Times Magazine, a series of black-and-white photographs of Luis Fernando Guimarães (an actor and friend of Oiticica) wearing Parangolé 30 Capa 23 M’Way Ke, and the album cover for Weasels Ripped My Flesh by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention, all manipulated with white line of cocaine by the artists’. This work is an important progenitor of early video and installation art and influenced subsequent generations of artists tremendously.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[SUPERFLEX is a Danish collective, founded in 1993 by Bjørnstjerne Christiansen, Jakob Fenger, and Rasmus Nielsen. The group has gained worldwide recognition for their projects that deal with such issues as financial and economic markets, democratic production conditions, self-organization, and environmentalism. SUPERFLEX bases their international projects on what they describe as “counter- economic strategies,” which aim to question power structures, agency and ownership by prodding at their limitations.

The exhibition Flooded McDonald’s comprises three of SUPERFLEX’s most recent film projects. In Flooded McDonald's (2009), the centerpiece of the show, a meticulously reconstructed true-to-life replica of the interior of a McDonald's restaurant gradually floods with water - no customers or staff are present. Slowly, the water level rises until eventually the space becomes completely submerged. The 21-minutes film is not a specific critique of McDonald’s or the workings of a multinational company, but instead examines the consequences of consumerism. While the film remains open to interpretation it touches on such issues as climate change and natural disasters.

  <Description><![CDATA[New York-based artist Amy Granat draws from the legacy of experimental and abstract filmmaking to create new approaches in 16mm film and video at the limits of personal and narrative cinema. Using Paul Bowles’ novel The Sheltering Sky as a point of departure for this exhibition, she creates an immersive environment of projected images, which substitute the narrative thrust of literary fiction with a more subtle exploration of character and place through landscape, light, and gesture.

  <Description><![CDATA[Harris Lieberman presents The Demon of Noontide, the first U.S. solo exhibition of Danish artist Simon Dybbroe Møller. In his latest body of work, Møller addresses the fallacy of progress - particularly as it underlies the avant-gardist paradigm of artistic development and the unrelenting pace of technological advancement. The artist's paintings, performance, and videos signal neither a celebration nor a critique of progress, but rather by foregrounding their conceptual and process-based iterations, introduce a cyclical alternative to this dominant model.

Three films in the back gallery follow the exhibition's recurring character as he engages in mundane tasks like driving a car, working in the office and retrieving an article of clothing from a dry cleaning carousel. In lieu of diegetic audio, a string quartet accompanies these videos by precisely imitating every sound produced by the featured machinery. While bringing to mind a whole array of films either made in celebration or critique of technological progress, this &quot;symphony of machines&quot; instead merely exhibits sensuality within monotony. With unapologetic neutrality, he short videos give us mechanized, fragmented and emptied time.
A new series of paintings span the walls of the main gallery, comprising inkjet prints of photographs of canvas that Møller has applied, with wallpaper paste, to actual canvases. As the paste and water sap colors from the printouts, Møller's brushstrokes gradually appear: functional marks that incidentally double as signs of expressive technique. Here the most commonly used machine for image reproduction - the household printer - becomes a chance producer of images of alchemic qualities.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Collaboration is a way of working. It is also a genre, founded on an idea or ideal of authorship. Dialogue, on the other hand, is a form of interaction, one that has its own ethos and discipline of engagement, in which each protagonist is constantly asked to shift between listening and speaking, proposing and understanding, deciding and complying.

For their first exhibition at Invisible-Exports, Lucas Ajemian and Julien Bismuth are staging a dialogue of or out of sorts. By means of a series of objects, performances, the filming of scenes for a long-standing film project, and a publication, they will engage in an exchange across a frail and blurred divide of authorship. The materials used for this exhibition will be newspaper, glue, water, wire mesh, a mime, newsprint and ink, a printing press, computers and cell phones, and other, miscellaneous and as of yet more or less unknown items. Scenes for the “Les Tristes” film will be staged and shot every week at or within proximity to the gallery. Anyone interested in participating or auditioning for these scenes may contact the gallery for dates and times.

The exhibition ventures to address such topics as: (a.) the immateriality of concepts as an ideal rendered unattainable by the materiality of language, (b.) the ideal of furniture as objects rendered immaterial by our familiar and unconscious relation to them, (c.) the material and yet seemingly immaterial nature of the filmic illusion, (d.) the fallacy of commerce as an end to a means rather than a means to an end, (e.) the irascibility of the avant-gardes, (f.) the difficulty of breaking down language into analyzable units, (g.) the morning papers, (h.) distraction, (i.) manholes, and - perhaps most importantly (j.) the consequences of having an absence of motives being counteracted by a plenitude of impulses.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Kate Werble Gallery presents Christopher Chiappa's first solo show in eight years, High Fructose Corn Syrup.  In this exhibition, Chiappa employs self-portraiture as a technique to heighten psychological and cultural decay. The title, High Fructose Corn Syrup, is a reference to the artist’s transition from adolescence into adulthood, and his realization of the disappointment of human experience. A daily Coke drinker, he hit puberty just as Coca Cola’s formula switched from using sugar to high fructose corn syrup.

Chiappa uses a simple switch of the ordinary to emphasize an omnipresent disequilibrium in the photographic portrait of the artist in his studio, I Always Knew It Would Come To This. Wearing his usual self-dictated uniform of a white shirt, black pants and Nike Prefontaines, the picture represents the madness of the everyday – his shirt is on his legs and his pants and shoes on his arms and torso with his head popping out of a hole cut in the crotch.

Cloaking the gallery in black plastic, Chiappa aims to push the viewer to re-evaluate the physical gallery:  anything can happen within the space.  His uniquely American sculpture, Cornball, becomes a handmade icon; a basketball covered in kernels of corn. Cornball layers one recognizable American thing onto another, referencing pop culture as well as Koons’ suspended basketballs.

Unordinary tension builds within Hermit Crab, a video manipulating common childhood pet Hermit Crabs in a way that depicts power and abuse. The artist’s head is cropped out of each frame as he methodically glues each of the twenty-five hermit crab shells together to form a circle. The crabs’ behavior during the gluing evokes human struggle and strategies for coping as a group. Although the crabs were not hurt in any way, an unsettling, uncomfortable feeling prevails.

  <Description><![CDATA[Tobias Madison’s first US solo show is a newly commissioned project in two parts. Hydrate + Perform consists of many large acrylic tanks, each filled with a different flavor of Vitamin Water. The stunning blocks of pastel color create a counter rhythm to the columns that support the gallery space on Broadway. Other display cases frame synthetic plants, Pollock-ized with drips of paint. Large color prints of Compact Discs scanned and warped constitute wall panoramas. The various layers form a landscape unfolding different states of artificiality.

The second part of the exhibition entitled Yes I Can! The Movie: Preview pairs Madison’s notorious flag paintings with a short film shot in 2009. The road movie leading from Switzerland to Mongolia tracks the use of monuments and brutalist architecture on the way. The flags are embezzled from Radisson Hotels, their slogan Yes I can! crudely appropriated. Stretched as if they are the real thing and pimped with oil paint by different collaborators, they enter art history through the service door. Herewith the status of painting is naturally demystified by Madison.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[David Zwirner presents Diana Thater’s sixth solo exhibition at the gallery and the New York debut of a major new film work. Adapting its title from anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss’s seminal text, The Savage Mind, in which he wrote, “art lies half-way between scientific knowledge and mythical or magical thought,” Between Science and Magic fuses the magic of  
illusionists with the magic of cinema. 

An installation comprised of two looped side-by-side projections, Thater’s film is based on the iconic image of a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat. She began by filming the acclaimed magician Greg Wilson, resplendent in a vintage formal top hat and tails, performing this trick alone on a white film stage. Thater then projected that footage onto the screen of the Los Angeles Theater and re-filmed it in the environment of the old movie hall. Built in 
1931, this historic theater is one of the last and most ornate movie palaces  remaining from the early part of the century. Still standing on Los Angeles’s  now defunct “theater row,” the venerated cinema is a gilded remnant of Hollywood’s golden era. The theater is of the same vintage as the magician’s style, his costume, the trick, and the grainy film projection. All work together to form an image of “illusion.”
