SAT OCT 17 - SAT NOV 14: EXHIBITION: "HR" Gallery Hours: wed-sun, noon-6PM
Human Resources presents HR, an exhibition of new work by Sabrina Chou consisting of backdrops, equipment, furnishings, and clothing. The exhibition proposes an ambiguity around these objects, and how they might oscillate between aesthetic proposition, functional use, and absurd adaptation. Assembled around us, the works outline open-ended sets, figurative utopias, and allegorized landscapes. Somewhere between the field, the court, the lawn, the desert, the discotheque, and the office, our unattributed bodies can find vaguely open seats and space to move.
SUN NOV 8: WORKSHOP + LECTURE: Carlin Wing: Episodes in the Life of Bounce Workshop: 1-4PM Lecture: 5PM, free
Machine Project and Cabinet magazine team up to present two new episodes in the life of bounce from artist (and former professional squash player) Carlin Wing – hosted by Sabrina Chou’s experimental sporting exhibition, HR. From 1pm to 4pm, join us for a Live Ball Orchestra! Artist Carlin Wing, assisted by Luke Fischbeck, will lead a workshop about the sonic and musical properties of bounce. Participants will use balls of all types to sound out the architectural space of Sabrina Chou’s exhibition at HRLA.
