Emily Nachison | Hylozoic

April 2 – April 23, 2011

Opening Reception: Saturday, April 2, 7 – 10PM
(Viewing Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, 12 – 3PM, and by appointment)

Closing Reception, Light Brunch/Artist Talk: April 23, 12 – 3PM

FalseFront is pleased to present the site-specific installation, Hylozoic, from Emily Nachison. Working from the philosophical theory that all things–living and inanimate hold life, and therefore are universally related, Nachison constructs grand geologic environments from the man-made synthetics.

Hylozoism, (from Greek hyle, “matter”; zoe, “life”), in philosophy, any system that views all matter as alive, either in itself or by logically in the operation of a world soul or some similar principle. Hylozoism is logically distinct both from early forms of animism, which personify nature, and from panpsychism, which attributes some form of consciousness or sensation to all matter.

Artist Talk This Sunday
Vanessa Calvert: Wall Shade
Emily Nachison: Suspension, Stage 1 and Corridor
Dustin Zemel: SHOW SHOW, SHOW tell, SHOW SHOW

PLACE is very pleased to host Artist’s Talks by Vanessa Calvert, Emily Nachison, and Dustin Zemel. They are each raising questions about spatial relationships and how we navigate them.  Nachison is looking at transitional spaces creating environments that are both inviting and displacing. Calvert is exploring very personal discomfort and the space between concealment and exposure. Zemel’s seven panel video installation examines “artificial visual landscapes” and the relationship we have to the information we receive and the possible limitations to our navigation.
