Now, Bruce is kicking things up a notch with the Brucennial2010, Feb. 25-Apr. 4, 2010, a parody version of the Whitney Biennial -- or maybe it’s more serious than it lets on -- being presented in a 5,000-square-foot space at 350 West Broadway in SoHo donated by the real-estate mogul and megacollector Aby Rosen. Titled "Miseducation," the Brucennial supposedly "brings together 420 artists from 911 countries working in 666 discrete disciplines." In a press release, the globetrotting curator Francesco Bonami is quoted at nonsensical length, presumably a pastiche as well, though the announced participation of the young curator Vito Schnabel seems to be on the level. An email asks prospective participants to "either dredge something up or create something new. . . . As fast and loose as you like." The event also promises performances on Feb. 25, 2010, and a literary supplement launching the same day at www.brucennial.com Intersections curated by Cora Cohen w/ Corey D'Augustine, Gar Wang & Marsha Melnick at Educational Alliance, 197 East Broadway, 6-8 Tang Nannan What I can See From Here at Living with Art Gallery, 153 Lafayette Street, 6-9 Anya Kielar Face at Rachel Uffner Gallery, 47 Orchard Street, 6-8 Panel on the future of literary journalism at Melville House, 145 Plymouth Street at Pearl, Brooklyn, 7 Photog Amy Williams Within You, Without You at 440 Gallery, 440 Sixth Avenue, Brooklyn, 6-9 Friday February 26th A Super Cool Party with Performances by artist's and groups like; Aleksandra Mir, Brahms, Brina Thurston, Charles Stankievech, Class Actress, Lemonade, Shana Moulton, Simone Leigh "A New Breed" curated by Ian Daniel, Mary Mattingly  to benefit Exit Art's SEA program and the Waterpod at Exit Art, 475 Tenth Avenue at 36th Street, $5-$20 Pay-As-You-Wish, 8-1am (this goes late so we'll have time to hit the galleries before you boogie down.) A, C, E or 1, 2, 3, trains to 34th Street/Penn Station, I'll be there! Brina Thurston performance ongoing throughout night. Brina Thurston is a multimedia artist who works with video, sculpture and photography and social practice. "Seeking out the humor, sexuality and absurdity in the everyday while maintaining a critical view of our contemporary social systems, many of these pieces are steeped in institutional critique and become reactions/interventions to the artists immediate surroundings." Thurston has exhibited at Rivington Arms, Dean Projects, Gavin Brown @ Passerby, Location One Videos by Simone Leigh & Charles Stankievich ongoing. Leigh’s work has been exhibited nationally, including solo shows at Rush Arts Gallery Project Space and Momenta Art gallery and in group exhibitions at Exit Art, The Kitchen, The Fine Art Work Center, Rotunda Gallery and more. Leigh uses the "anthropological term skeuomorph as a reoccurring concept in her work, describing a derivative object that retains some sort of physical or metaphorical elements of the original, a substitute used to ease a sense of loss." 8pm DJ Trent of WFMU 8:45pm Brahms, Newly formed in Brooklyn, Brahms is already making big waves with their electro-pop beats and creative performance style. They are quickly taking over the local music scene, as Deli Magazine notes, with a line-up of great shows with well known bands including Telepathe, Boy Crisis, Body Language, Javelin and Lemonade. 9:30pm Shana Moulton performance "Nature Meditation"  Moulton is a video artist listed by Paddy Johnson in Art Fag City and L Magazine's "Art: Best of 2009," who uses video and performance to "create oblique narratives combining unsettling humor with a low-tech, Pop sensibility. Moulton's work frequently involves a character that navigates the enigmatic and magical properties of her home decor while interacting with consumer products toying with an issues about commercialization, subcultures of self-help and low-brow spiritualism." Moulton has performed pieces at Performa '09, the Bellwether Gallery, Art in General, Socrates Sculpture Park, Smack Mellon, and has an upcoming performance at the Kitchen. 10pm Class Actress - Elizabeth Harper, deemed "Brooklyn's very own Madonna" by NY Press, with her new electro-pop trio Class Actress, is using older 80's syth influences to break new ground in music and peformance. Pitchfork.com describes them as "freely appropriating the sullen synthetics of New Order, the Human League, and Depeche Mode [while offering] a playful, breathy coo that hearkens back to hipster queens like Blondie's Debbie Harry and Saint Etienne's Sarah Cracknell." 10:45pm Aleksandra Mir "Gravity" Aleksandra Mir's art focuses on "faith in possibility, and those coincidences that make an expanding world a little smaller. Her work is about social systems, demography, ephemera, distribution, and tourist economies. Mir advocates new ideas of community by forming strong collaborative relationships and encouraging public interaction with her art." This will be the first public screening in New York of her video "Gravity." Charles Stankievech "Ghost Rockets" Video Screenings Charles Stankievech,an artist, writer, educator and curator was an "artist in residence" on the Waterpod. He will screen his film "Ghost Rockets" from his series of rocket launch spectacles occurring at sites around the world tracing the history of ballistics. Adapting the form of a rock’n roll world tour, each site is paired with a pop song, which often becomes the performance’s title and inspires a choreographed spectacle involving amplified sound on location, smoke grenades, lighting effects, and the rocket launch. "Ghost Rocks" will be exhibited at an upcoming exhibit at Palais de Tokyo in Paris 11:15pm Lemonade This popular brooklyn trio are reinventing electro-dance-rock through their big beats and entrancing shows. Lemonade replicate "that first sensation of losing yourself in a peak-hour, strobe-lit reverie where the communal act of dancing teeters between liberation and disorientation," says Pitchfork.com, "imagineMetal Box-era John Lydon bellowing out Sigur Rós' Hopelandic lyric sheet-- but layers it with Arabic-accented melodies, machine-gunned synths and a pounding 4/4 beat." 12-1am DJ Trent of WFMU The Review Panel:  Critic David Cohen and others discuss  discussed the "what's happening shows"  including El Anatsui, Damien Hirst (yawn), Yvonne Jacquette, & Tino Sehgal (Hooray!) at National Academy Musuem & School of Fine Arts, 1083 Fifth Avenue at 89th Street, 6:45pm Robert Morris, Untitled (Scatter Piece) 1968-69 at Leo Castelli Gallery, 18 East 77th Street, probably no opening Whitney Biennial Book launch for David Levi Strauss From Head to Hand at CUE, 511 West 25th Street, 5-8 The Museum of Unnatural History at Clamp Art, 521-531 West 25th Street, 6-8 Eemyun Kang, Dozing River at Tina Kim Gallery, 545 West 25th, 3rd FL, David Smith at Gagosian Gallery, 555 West 24th Street, 6-8pm Talk, Slavs & Tatars 79-89-09 curated by Beatrice Gross at SVA (Eastside Gallery), 209 East 23rd Street, 3rd fl, free, 7-9 Alexander Calder at Gagosian Gallery, 522 West 21st Street, 6-8 Bbbrrriiiaaannn Bbbeeellloootttttt, The Joy of File at ZRCHER studio, 33 Bleecker Street, 6-8 Lucas Ajemian & Julien Bismuth at Invisible Exports, 14A Orchard Street at Canal, 6-8 We're getting married!
