Reader's Art 11 installation begins Reader's Art 11 installation begins. The boxes are stowed, the tools are laid out, the artworks are more or less sorted by how they will be displayed. So, we begin. Post-its alert me to titles I might find obscure when I affix the wall labels. I answer the phone, give in person interviews, check for accuracy in the records. Coco Mault from the City Pages wrote a very nice piece about the show. Thanks Coco! {note: one of the images in the masthead is complements of photographer Michael Shapiro.} Susan Hensel Gallery The focus of Susan Hensel Gallery is on compelling objects, meaningful use of materials, and engaging sculpture.

FAULT

2023-06-08T01:18:26-04:00Articles, Artists, Art|

FAULT The video FAULT, by Dean Ebben is projected onto the shaped screen of In the House of the Mineral Spirits.It is an evocative video, roughly 7 minutes, in roughly 5 parts. It begins with Dean rolling on a clear, old, wood floor. The soundtrack is both ambient, using the sounds found in the environment and additive and evocative using the jingling and jangling of silverware. As the video progresses, new sounds and new actions surround the newly discovered fault. Bread and water, staff of life, the stuff of memory and the stuff of the present. In the House of the Mineral Spirits runs through the end of February at Susan Hensel Gallery. Open Mondays, 10-5 and by very generous appointment.
