Time is like the East River by William Lamson
Artist William Lamson will open a solo show this Thursday, November 12 from 6-8 p.m. at Connecticut's Artspace. Lamson's exhibition will compliment his installation, Long Shot, which is currently on view in The Lot space outside of the gallery building.
From the press release:
Equal parts director and performer, Lamson explores oppositional forces and ideas through his actions and interventions, which he documents in still photographs and short videos. His performative experiments reveal tensions between success and failure, stability and instability, and strength and weakness, while speaking broadly to notions of temporality and interconnectivity. In his straightforward yet multi-layered works, Lamson marshals the principles of action and reaction to challenge viewers’ perceptions of gravity or basketball, for example, in order to create new moments for discovery.
The show will remain on view through December 19th.
