James Nares: In the City

Exhibition Website

Jan 27 2017 - Apr 16 2017

James Nares: In the City features the artist’s mesmerizing 61-minute high-definition video Street and the energy of a wrecking ball in Pendulum

Describing Street as “a love letter to my adopted home,” the London native uses innovative technology to provide unique perspectives on the details of New York City street life. The accompanying musical score was composed and performed by Sonic Youth co-founder and guitarist Thurston Moore. Pendulum captures the long arc of a wrecking ball as it moves through the deserted Tribeca neighborhood in 1976 to explore movement, rhythm and repetition.
