Following
our last
year's very successful presentations featuring performances
and interventions by the New Humans and the Red Shoe
Delivery Service, plus everyone's favorite video by
Gianni Motti featuring George W. Bush at the Armory
Show, this year the S I was thrilled to have had opportunity
to present our program to a wide, international audience
from within the halls of the Armory.
The S I's spirit of innovative contemporary art was
showcased in our booth and with several installations
and interventions within the context of the fair, including
a gothic wall of sound installation by artists Valentin
Carron and Charles-François
Duplain, the make-shift HQ of Filip
Noterdaeme the Director of the Homeless
Museum, squatting at the S I's booth, and a project
that truly subverted the economics of the Armory called
Neutral Capital by artist Peter
Simensky. The newest S I artist editions
was also debuted at the Armory Show, with a work related
to the exhibition NONE OF THE ABOVE by John
Armleder.
We
had many visitors to our exciting S I outpost, and with
lots new fans, members and supporters of our program,
we are happy to say that the S I's participation in
the 2005 Armory Show was a dazzling success, introducing
our cutting-edge program to a massive audience. |
