18/05-NY8 Merce x 5 !

visited the Queens PS1, not much outstanding exhibitions or works, including a Chinese Video Now, of thirteen artists, a few works by Cao Fe, one in a room together with 5 other's videos, the other two in one single room, cosplay in projection, milkman on TV set. Since it is not dusk by closing time, the turrell room will not be open this season. can't double check with its supreme experience for the last time here. See also a real bigger scale Jessica Stockholder installation for the first time, quite up to expectation. Hu Jieming do leave me a quite gd impression, I voilate the no photo because of him, maybe because his work is a bit similar to what Tozer Pak could be related. Then moved on to Sculpture Center, quite a gd show, a total disappointment for Dorsky gallery, and a reduced collection display of Fisher Landau. went then to Location one to see a dance/projection event briefly before heading to MOMA for a Nam June Paik videowork showing. Some of them seen before, but some harsh or funny gag on tv/media discourse viewed for the first time. Make me remember Beuys' Felt TV. and WOW! The Merce by Merce by Paik is really interesting, for dance, how 5 Cunningham dancing together on one screen etc. and then also clips showing Cunningham visiting Leo Castelli, with Calvin Tomkins presence, etc, etc. Joined as MOMA member, for a 25 dollar, thx to Hung Keung, will have to see more films there to make it worth it, like the Calarts screening coming on. since I will have to wake up early to head to Philadelphia on Sat morning, I probably won't write tonight, for I am planning a visit to Whitney Biennial at its pay-what-u-wish hours from 6-9.
