TONIGHT An Evening with Seth Kelly and Adam Putnam
Wednesday, October 26 7:30 pm

Please join us for an informal gathering in the basement of Fitzroy Gallery on October 26th at 7:30pm. Seth Kelly and Adam Putnam will present a conversation in the form of a demonstration. Through the exchange of audio field recordings, found footage, and live video components the two will describe, in various forms, time shifts, thresholds and other transitional spaces. Not unlike what happens when:
A medium speaks with the voice of unseen dimensions
A vortex forms in the center of a movie screen
A stellar probe passes the rings of Saturn
An obelisk groans imperceptibly
The scale of the room you happen to be in collapses along a horizontal axis
You suddenly look up at the exact moment of a fall
Hans Castorp muses "...space, like time engenders forgetfulness..."

Frank Benson in NY Times/T magazine

For the past two years, the sculptor Frank Benson has poured every fiber of his being into the piece “Human Statue (Jessie),” a life-size — and very lifelike — sculpture executed in bronze and also in a combination of Belgian black marble and bronze.

Frank Benson's exhibition in Art in America

Frank Benson's latest cast-bronze sculpture, Human Statue (Jessie), 2011, currently on view at Taxter and Spengemann, depicts a female figure with the attributes of classical marble statuary. Her arms circle out like an off-duty Atlas, a vessel at her feet. She wears fashion-forward sunglasses, p...
