1st Floor’s performance room / 5 Years Review Gallery

Ofri Cnaani will use one of her DIY moviemakers to create a live-cinema performance.

“Vanishing Woman” deals with magic, trickery, the dawn of cinema and the archives of the Israeli Kibbutz movement.

In “Turn Table”, the second part of the performance, Cnaani will assemble real time movies using two and three dimensional objects, music boxes and other tiny toys .

In conjunction with the Greater New York, a series of weekend performances will take place throughout the building for the run of the exhibition. Other June 12th performances include: Darren Bader with Brina Thurston, Lucy Raven, and Dave Miko

* The first floor performance room ( 5 year review gallery) is located on the first floor directly across from the cafe.
