Re:Group: Beyond Models of Consensus proposes that with participation now a dominant paradigm, structuring social interaction, art, activism, the architecture of the city, the internet, and the economy, we are all integrated into participatory structures whether we want to be or not. The exhibition showcases work that subverts existing systems or envisions new alternatives to the ways in which individuals can take part, or choose not to take part, in social and cultural life.

Eyebeam is pleased to present Weight of Fall (Waltz), a site-specific video installation created by Zerek Kempf for the Eyebeam window gallery. Please join us for an opening reception on Thursday, March 4, 6 – 8PM. The work will be on view March 4 – 27. Installed in a street-level window, Kempf’s Weight of Fall (Waltz) erects obscuring materials that directly abut the glass: plywood, curtains, and styrofoam refuse viewing access to the space beyond the window. Kempf addresses the window’s four panels as individual units, splicing them together with a sculptural syntax that extends the logic, tricks, and techniques of film editing into the physical space of the installation.
