PHOEBE WASHBURN
Nunderwater Nort Lab
in collaboration with Mary Boone Gallery
Zach Feuer Gallery, in collaboration with Mary Boone Gallery, is pleased to present two exhibitions by Phoebe Washburn: Nunderwater Nort Lab, a site-specific installation, at Zach Feuer Gallery and Temperatures in a Lab of Superior Specialness, an exhibition of new sculpture, at Mary Boone Gallery.
Phoebe Washburn's work explores generative systems based on absurd patterns of production often created by inefficiency. The rules that govern Washburn's systems of production inform her sculpture and installation formally as well as conceptually.
Exhibition dates: June 30-August 12, 2011

Closing party for Created in her Own Image.
Friday, August 5 · 5:00pm - 8:30pm
Location Hudson Guild
11 9 9th Avenue b/w 17-18 St.
NYC
From my friend UltraV of the Rockem Sockem party
I have been at the Hudson Guild for 1 year and have had my show up for 2 months. Come check out the work and celebrate with me Friday Aug. 5th from 5-8:30 pm with a closing party. There will be wine and snacks but if you want to bring something to add to the party or friends as well feel free.
Elisa Velazquez. Her work explores the themes of identity and culture both ext...ernal and internal. In the her show titled “Created in her own image” she presents a series of mixed media portrait painting, drawings and crocheted sculptures made during her residency of 2010-11. These works were inspired by traditional portraiture, religious iconography and the interactions and experiences she had with the participants of the Hudson Guild. She plays with the roles and titles that society places on women: saint, sinner, princess, beauty queen, wild woman and makes them in her own image.
Show runs from June 23- August 9th
Viewing Hours / Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays / 3:00 - 6:00 PM / and by appointment

Saturday + Sunday, August 6 + 7, 2011, from 2:00pm-6:00pm
Where: Tompkins Square Park (East Seventh Street + Avenue A) in Manhattan
The SHADOW, New York's only underground newspaper publishing on the Lower East Side since 1989, along with Wombat in Combat, is presenting a free
punk show in Tompkins Square Park, featuring bands and performers that
...have been in our scene from the beginning as well as newer bands. We will
also have tables with political action groups, alternative media, and
more. We'll also have several guest speakers who will entertain and
provide the historic context behind the show.
These shows commemorate the 23rd anniversary of the infamous Tompkins
Square police riot of August 6, 1988, in which hundreds of "New York's
Finest" from all over the city descended on our neighborhood,
indiscriminately clubbing anyone in their sights in furtherance of a
non-existent midnight park curfew.
These shows also celebrate the vitality of the political activist and
counter-cultural scene that has survived on the Lower East Side, despite
the gentrification, soaring rents and lost venues that have contributed to
the cultural genocide now taking place in New York City.
