Its Own Nothingness Elizabeth Orr
Krowswork is pleased to present Its Own Nothingness, an exhibition in 3 acts, featuring video/photography/performance by Ariel Baron-Robbins, Tad Beck, Peter Dobey, Sarah Filley, Tbird Luv, Elizabeth Orr & Joey Petropolous. Each of these artists risks presenting performance-oriented artwork (Being) that is a manifestation of Nothingness, with the possibility that through this Nothingness, Being itself will be validated and elevated. Schedule of Events: Prelude: “Photography” by Peter Dobey Opening Friday, July 23rd, 7-9; reprised Saturday, July 24th, 2-5 Corps: “Its Own Nothingness” Video & photography by Ariel Baron-Robbins, Tad Beck, Peter Dobey, Sarah Filley, Elizabeth Orr & Joey Petropolous On view Friday, July 30th-Friday, August 20th Communion Reception, Sunday, August 1st, 11-2; First Friday Reception, August 6th, 6-10, with a performance by Elizabeth Orr at 8 Postlude: “Allness Emerge” Butoh-inspired performance/experience directed by Tbird Luv; Saturday, August 21st, 6-8, followed by afterparty "It follows therefore that there must exist a Being of which the property is to nihilate Nothingness, to support it in its being, to sustain it perpetually in its very existence, a being by which nothingness comes to things. . . The being by which Nothingness comes to the world must be its own Nothingness. . . . It remains to learn in what delicate, exquisite region of Being we shall encounter that Being which is its own Nothingness.” –Jean-Paul Sartre, “The Origin of Nothingness” For more on the artists and exhibition, visit www.krowswork.com/nothingness.html
