We're having another Synthetic Zero event on June 3 and 6, and we're

performances, music, etc. The show will again be part of the Bronx
Culture Trolley and is partly sponsored by the Bronx Council on the
Arts. If you'd like to submit visual art or a performance, please
email email suppressed; if it's a video, send it to:
Mitsu Hadeishi / Synthetic Zero

Preferred formats for video are DVD (NTSC or PAL) or Blu-Ray disc.
Also coming up:
May 1st (7pm opening), 2nd (4pm - 6pm), and 6th (6pm)
"Otherworld: Explorations of the Uncanny"
Alison Ward curates a show featuring artwork by Lauriston Avery, Jenny
Doussan, Josh Kil, Wyatt Nash, Clive Murphy, and Alison Ward. It is a
mix of painting, drawing, sculpture, video, and sound work that deals
with the notion of cognitive dissonance - that uncanny feeling that
happens when one holds two contradictory ideas simultaneously. All of
the work that she has chosen for the show has a dialogue with the
other pieces as well, so the whole exhibition should read as a larger
installation piece. The show opens on Friday May 1st with a reception
that evening, and will be open for the 3rd Annual Mott Haven Open
Studio Tour on Saturday the 2nd from 4pm-6pm.
