”The Illusion of Democracy”
Charles Atlas
Luhring Augustine Bushwick, 25 Knickerbocker Ave., Brooklyn, NY
Fri 10-6pm, Sat & Sun 12-6pm
a solo exhibition of the American film and video artist Charles Atlas. Atlas is a pioneering figure in film and video; for over four decades he has stretched the limits of his medium, forging new territory in a far-reaching range of genres, stylistic approaches, and techniques. Throughout his production, Atlas has consistently been deeply involved in fostering collaborative relationships, working intimately with such significant artists and performers as Leigh Bowery, Michael Clark, Douglas Dunn, Marina Abramovic, Yvonne Rainer, Mika Tajima and the New Humans, Antony and the Johnsons, and most notably Merce Cunningham, with whom he worked closely for a decade from the early 1970s through 1983.

”The Water’s Fine”
Grayson Cox
Klemens Gasser & Tanja Grunert Gallery, 524 W19th St., NYC
the artist overhauls the entire gallery into a physically and psychologically challenging sculptural environment that questions ideas of spatial control, communal versus private space, our relationship with the natural world, and how architecture motivates, controls, manipulates and facilitates.
Entering the gallery requires an active commitment by visitors to engage with the work: first bending below the 50-inch high, 1,600 square foot wood structure that covers the gallery; then traversing through the sub-environment labyrinth.
