Roulette presents 'Five Beasts' a collaboration between Grammy Award winning performance artist Rinde Eckert and highly acclaimed musician Ned Rothenberg. 'Five Beasts' is a set of human portraits of men and women seen as if by an animal, the language a kind of music or noise, the gestures unaccountable. We are, most of us, lost in a forest of our own design, a welter of unconscious narratives, the pull of our complicated past, an obsessive constructor of futures, howling our troubled allegory of self: this is ourmasquerade-cum-delusion. But the animal informs and teaches us - if we listen. We are absurd and amazed, and sometimes beautiful, in our utter ignorance.
The cornerstone of the 'Ossining in 3D' bicentennial celebration, a large-scale, 25-piece outdoor sculpture exhibit will soon weave through the Village of Ossining's historic buildings and downtown waterfront area. The exhibit will be open to the public from May 5, 2013 through October 26, 2013, with a special meet-the-artist reception today, May 5. The free reception, held from 3:00 - 5:00pm at the Village of Ossining Municipal Building, will include hors d'oeuvres, refreshments and a tour of the sculptures.
