SOLOS @ Fridman Gallery – Mendi and Keith Obadike

SO​⅃​OS

a space of limit as possibility

May 14 -July 30, 2020

​

Fridman Gallery and CT::SWaM present SO​⅃​OS, weekly performances inside the empty gallery.
​
Operating within NYC’s shelter-in-place guidelines, only one person – the performer – is present. Equipped with multiple microphones and cameras (mixed remotely), the space itself becomes a generative agent for the performer.
​
As the world moves online, our bodies remain situated within physical boundaries, resulting in a new kind of dissonance. SO​⅃​OS turns this phenomenon inside out, the shuttered confines of the gallery creating a new immediacy.
​
All performances on Thursdays at 8pm,
​​
Tickets: $5 each concert (live viewing and unlimited playback)
