City of Today for Feminine Urbanism Investment Pitch at No Longer Empty

How Much Do I Owe You? 

No Longer Empty is proud to announce our 14th exhibition, "How Much Do I Owe You?", in the Clock Tower in Long Island City, Queens.  The iconic former Bank of Manhattan building will open its doors, vaults and even illuminate The Clock Tower to host an immersive and ambitious site-specific exhibition.

As the title implies, “How Much Do I Owe You?” is a personal and conversational exploration into the new iterations of currency, value and exchange at this time of financial flux, growing debt and job insecurity.

From the virtualization of money to the rise of non-monetary barter networks, recent years have seen a re-thinking of forms and systems of exchange, and thus notions of value, commodity, and debt that surround them.

Inspired by the Bank building and the surrounding neighborhood, 26 artists from 15 countries confront these issues and how they are negotiated in the workforce, housing market, and in the every day. Curated by Chief Curator, Manon Slome, the public will experience a variety of media, from sound installations, projections, and film to participatory projects, immersive installations and large scale sculptures. 

Exhibition hours: Thursday-Monday, 1-7pm

Welcome all to the III Bronx Biennial of Latin American Art. Once again we summon the workers of culture, with the purpose of fostering reflection regarding the dialectical nature of art. We’ve chosen the theme Illusory Correlation” as regular behavior and decodifying agent between two possible variables. Both represent a human operation in the exercise of association, whose linguistic principles bear a content that corresponds to the social identity. From this dilemma, several axioms emerge in which the art is a protagonist in the construction of the worldview (Weltanschauung), which also includes the general perception or cognition and the act of collective conscience.

Do the Rockaway: "Embrasure" Body Negative sculpture performance at Jacob Riis State Park

Along Atlantic shores, there are rubbled embrasures fortifying cities in case of tropical apocalypse.  Bathed in facade-eating salts and sand, these grotesque wall slits minimally frame the horizon line to battle oncoming ships.  Embrasures guard the body during battle, but embrace a visual opening to see what is to come.   
Please help me collapse social space by physically joining the next iteration of the Body Negative performative sculptures.  As part of a series on feminine urbanism, we will cast voids, conversations, relations, public privates, and slit open modern problems in order to embrace future urban visions.
Let down your defenses weekend warriors, and join us at Jacob Riis State Park, Rockaway for a ladies potluck on the beach.  Bring snacks, drinks and your bits to be plastered while we extend our view past our neighbors air conditioner, and into the sea.  If you've ever had an arm or leg cast, its a similar process, only your limbs aren't broken.  Directions below: please rsvp to CoralinaMeyer [at] gmail.com
