The Kitchen is pleased to present One Minute More, featuring works by Kate Gilmore, Jamie Isenstein, Oliver Lutz, Clifford Owens, Georgia Sagri, Aki Sasamoto, and Josh Tonsfeldt. The New York-based artists in this group exhibition create performance-based videos, photographs, and sculptural installations that experiment with various approaches to presenting and documenting durational actions or live events. Exploring issues relating to labor and stamina, risk and vulnerability, as well as questions of identity, their works come together to form a larger investigation into the physical and mental conditions of contemporary life.
There will be an opening reception for the exhibition at The Kitchen (512 West 19th Street) on Thursday, September 10, 6:00 – 8:00 P.M. Curated by Debra Singer, Matthew Lyons, and Miriam Katz, the exhibition will be on view September 10 – October 31.
On Tuesday, October 13, at 7:00 P.M., The Kitchen will host a panel discussion with the artists addressing various approaches to and implications of documenting performance, an underlying concern of many works in the show. Also, in conjunction with the exhibition, Aki Sasamoto will perform in the gallery at 7:00 P.M. on Tuesday, September 15 and Tuesday, October 6. Admission is free to these events, but capacity is limited. Seating is first-come, first-served.
