Judith Barry: Casual Shopper / Stephen Laub: Switch
Organized by Tanya Zimbardo, Krowswork's third guest resident in 2015. Gallery hours: 1-5 p.m. Judith Barry, "Casual Shopper," 1980‒81, video, color, sound, 6 min., courtesy the artist “Shopping is an activity that consists of predictable yet indeterminate activities where, like the cinema, what we go to experience over and over again is our own desire.” — Judith Barry Stephen Laub, "Switch," 1981, video, color, sound, 3:46 min., courtesy the artist Voices: Susan Alexander and David Robinson "Switch was a response to concepts in early computing. I was thinking about how its language was reduced to either 1 or 0 without anything in-between, like a switch that is either on or off. It seemed a natural extension to wonder if our responses would also evolve into 1 or 0, or "yes" or "no"... Two friends watching the video (unrehearsed) had to respond with either a yes or no to each image." — Stephen Laub Exhibition on view in the adjacent gallery (through May 2): "Versions: Kristin Lucas and Judy Malloy" For more information, please visit: krowswork.com
