[Frameworks] TONIGHT 5.18, Sarah Halpern performs / SUN 5.19, Jesse Malmed presents at Microscope Gallery in Brooklyn

[LBurchill]

A little behind on these week's announcement, but we have 2 great shows
this weekend that should be mentioned here:

*TONIGHT 7pm, Sarah Halpern* presents an evening  of moving image and sound
performances. For “The Black Bird”, Halpern reappropriates iconic imagery
and written texts through the use of cut outs and collage in three live
light & sound compositions involving 16mm film, filmless projection, and
handmade 35mm film slides.

Musician Matt Wellins joins Halpern on the final piece of the night.

Admission $6**-

 SARAH HALPERN is an artist working with 16mm film, collage on paper, 35mm
slides, music and performance. Her work is largely focused on cinematic
time and the active role of the viewer. Halpern’s work been shown
previously at venues including The Museum of Moving Image, The Kitchen,
Participant Inc, Anthology Film Archives, and Microscope Gallery. Halpern
holds a B.A. in Film and Electronic Arts from Bard College.
*SUN 5.19, 7PM*

DEEP LEAP MICROCINEMA: WAY STATIONS
organized & presented by Jesse Malmed featuring works by Mary Helena
Clark, Clint Enns, Claire L. Evans, Duane LInklater, Christine Negus, Chris
Rice, Fern Silva, and Deborah Stratman
admission $6

For the third time in almost as many years, artist and curator Jesse Malmed
returns (this time from Chicago) to Microscope Gallery to present visionary
cinema. Jesse describes the night as:

 “The space betweens: Tool Time times ten times time, two-tiered
translation, hyperspace hypnospace, hot air balloons, Kurt Kren, the trees,
the audition, the proscenium wings, smoke on the water, the stars singing
back.”

A program for, of and by the pore-explorers seeking what’s between the seen
and what meaning can be gleaned from the synaptic. Sites of transition and
transposition reveal that the heat is often in the imaginative distance
between the nameable. These artists—whose work has shown cumulatively in
contexts like the Whitney Biennial, Documenta, Rotterdam and the Deep Leap
Microcinema—each evince a fascination with these nether spaces that is
distinct in its method and aims, but work together and apart as friendly
bedfellows. The hope is that the spaces between the works—the small ways
large files bristle up against each other in the darkness of the
cinema—open up the meanings and feelings of their borders.
