Paul Chan: 3rd Light by Ami Kealoha

Chan 3Rdlight

His disorienting light installation was the final scene of CH's Whitney Biennial 2006 video and now the New York-based artist Paul Chan's first German exhibition is opening this Friday, 27 October 2006. Part of an ongoing series called The 7 Lights, Paul will show 3rd Light (pictured right and here), which continues his use of shadow-like digital projections of falling common objects, like sunglasses, cards and people, and introduces a 3-dimensional replica of the table in The Last Supper. You can also catch his piece, 1st Light, currently at Philadelphia's Fabric Workshop and Museum through 18 November 2006.

John Arsenault: Filthy Gorgeous

A series of self portraits, the work is unabashedly self-focused showing a range of emotions, scenarios and levels of undress. A playful kind of humor runs throughout, almost as if Arsenault's sharing...
