 Girls Beware, 2005 still from DVD Tamy Ben-Tor Exploration in the Domain of Idiocy Zach Feuer Gallery (LFL) is pleased to present the work of Tamy Ben-Tor. In the main gallery Tamy Ben-Tor will present three new video portraits titled "Artist in Residence", "The Contractor", and "Alejandra". In the second gallery two other videos will be exhibited: "Women Talk about Adolf Hitler" and "Girls Beware". Tamy Ben-Tor will perform live "Exotica, The Rat and The Liberal" inside the gallery every Friday and Saturday at 4pm, excluding the Friday and Saturday immediately following Thanksgiving. Described by Tamy Ben-Tor: "The characters in the performances and the videos are all imitations, but also completely invented. They are all trying to communicate a certain truth, but are isolated in a domain of idiocy. The psychological state of people who try to grasp on to a truth, some sort of identity or ideology, which may be expressed simply in the subtlest form of "being themselves" interests me." This will be Tamy Ben-Tor's first solo exhibition. Born in 1975, she has screened her works and performed at various venues in the US and abroad including Salon 94, New York, PS1 Contemporary Art Center, New York and The ICA, London. Exhibition: November 17, 2005 - January 14, 2006 Gallery hours: Tues-Sat 10 am - 6 pm Zach Feuer Gallery (LFL) 530 West 24th Street USA-New York, NY 10011 Telephone +1 212 989 7700 Fax +1 212 989 7720 Email info@zachfeuer.com www.zachfeuer.com |
