Trisha Brown Dance Company's recreates Roof Piece on the 40th anniversary of its creation. In this work, ten dancers stationed on rooftops mimic each other's movements in an improvised and mutable series of movements. The piece will be recreated on roofs surrounding the southern end of the High Line, so that park visitors will be encircled by the performance as it unfolds. These performances are free and open to the public, and do not require any reservations in advance. June 9/10, 7:00 PM; June 11 at 5:00 and 7:00 PM. Each performance lasts 20 - 30 minutes.

Mr Fish's photos from the Bushwick Open Studios 2011 weekend:

brave fffing Mr.Fish to take photos with a cat on guard. Paintings all on the same theme (same theme? exact same paintings) - australopithecus man devoured by leopard - a 1960s book on primordial man (time-life type book) on drawing table as resource. Back part of studio at 114 Forrest St


Ian showed Mr Fish around and said 'ohh, man you are going to be amaaaazed.' and brought him back to see Meg Hitchcock's work. The pic he's holding up one of her talismans or something on her bookcase. She cuts out individual letters from sacred texts (bible, korans, etc) and pastes them together again into words spelling out passages from other sacred texts in these wonderful designs...built up 3d levels. Meg's having a solo show soon in Chelsea.


Michele Abramowitz, showing at Hart Studios 770 hart St.- Napoleon


Cojo (artsucks.com)...he did a drawing a day for a year (b&w drawings in wall and in bins) and they were categorized into four or so areas (sea life, aliens, etc) and now he's combining them into 10 large paintings. That is the first one completed. Palette of 72 acrylic colors (in other room).


Fish found a mermaid ;) Francesca Neiman who does pencil drawings in that apt. plus Julia Colavita's work.
