Art Opening Saturday September 5th at The Groop’s Neighbor Art Space – LM PROJECTS: Cause & Effect
September 2nd, 2009
Featuring Nova Jiang, Len Lye, Robert Rauschengerg, Jacob Tonski, Peter Fischli & David Weiss
LM PROJECTS (Formerly know as Bank) is please to announce its first exhibition, “Cause and Effect,” showcasing a collection of video based performances and kinetic sculpture from the mid 1960’s to the present.
Though the discourse surrounding each of the selected works diverge from one another and their classification as kinetic art, they nonetheless are linked through their mechanical, temporal, and movement based components. Glenn Kaino’s “In Revolution” and Len Lye’s “Trilogy: A Flip and Two Twisters” serve as a point of departure for the rest of the exhibition as performance and theatrics commingle with art and engineering. Rauschenberg’s “Open Score” and emerging artist Jacob Tonski’s “Balance Study, Threshold” are performative works dependant on the action of participants, while Peter Fischli and David Weiss rely on the chain reactions of common place objects and combustibles in “The Way Things Go.”
