Enchanted Space
In Anna K.E.鈥檚 Gloss of Forehead (2011), a disorienting video is projected onto a board in the grip of a skeleton-like unfinished wood frame. The protagonist is a naked derri猫re that busily and erratically moves about an artist鈥檚 studio, with debris scattered about the floor. The figure grabs and assembles bits and pieces, then takes things apart, as if to construct meaning out of uncertainty. Anna K.E. is participating in the upcoming Frieze New York. Born in Tbilisi, Georgia, she lives and works in Berlin and New York City.
For Everglades (2014), Dana Levy ventured deep into the wilderness of the Everglades National Park at night. She projected vibrantly colored lights onto the tropical vegetation using a generator she had carted into the jungle, and recorded the stunning but eerie setting. The ominous soundtrack accompanying the immersive video projection is composed from sounds of environmental atrocities, such as fracking. The work reflects upon humankind鈥檚 disastrous attempts to shape and control natural phenomena. Dana Levy鈥檚 solo project is currently on view at the Israel Museum, Jerusalem. She was born in Tel Aviv, Israel and lives and works in New York City.
Marilyn Minter麓s iconic Green Pink Caviar (2009) propels the audience鈥檚 voyeuristic experience to a visceral extreme. The sharp, high-definition video captures the movements of a sensual female tongue licking brightly colored transparent candy. Blurring boundaries between the languages of art and advertising, the video is presented as a fictional trailer for an imaginary film, an hypnotic experience that 鈥渋s an ad only for itself.鈥 A retrospective of Marilyn Minter鈥檚 work is currently on view at the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston and will travel within the U.S., with stops at the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver and the Orange County Museum of Art, CA, concluding at the Brooklyn Museum, New York. Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, Minter lives and works in New York City.
