Writing With Light

Writing With Light

Writing with Light will bring together exceptional artists working in light-based media ranging from video installation to alternative process photography. Showcasing groundbreaking work from local, national, and international artists, Writing with Light is not only a thoughtful engagement with new trends in art, but also an intentionally interactive environment in which the viewer can trace the process involved.

The centerpiece of Writing with Light will be a new sculptural piece by local artist Joseph Poon entitled Resurrection: 40 constructed from 40 analog televisions displaying video footage scored to Mahler’s 2nd Symphony.  Celebrated Chicago-based artist Alexander Stewart will also be screening “Errata,” a film made entirely from reiterative Xerox copying process and showing a new conceptual book piece made in an afternoon at the public library in Astoria, Queens, where xerography was invented.

A free concert follows the opening at 9pm with Early Day Miners, Metavari, and Fractured Army performing as part of our Elevator Music Series.
