Of Flies and Organs

Date: Friday, March 9th
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Halcyon (57 Pearl St.)
Cost: Free

Of Flies and Organs is the second solo show from Chio Flores. “The exhibition consists of a series of images of flies and human organs, presented as an alternating view of life cycles. Death is a recurrent theme in Flores’ work, often based on wrenching personal experiences. With this show, the artist is facing/accepting her own inevitable death, acknowledging it as a normal part of life and using flies to convey one of the myriad ways we continue to be present in the world after our bodies decay.” Tonight is the reception and the show will run through April 1st.

In the film, Troy has his friends “test” his suit in various violent ways (ramming trucks, flying logs, etc.) and then heads to the heart of Grizzly country for an adventure that ends, unceremoniously, in failure….”

A serious who’s who of 70’s street innovators from Dondi White to Maripol are featured in this decade long retrospective of NYC at the powerHouse Arena. “That 70s Show is an ode to a city long forgotten, a city on the brink of bankruptcy, rife with anarchy, brimming with uninhibited flavor and fearless adventure: New York City in the 70s. The exhibition pays tribute to the people of New York—from the pimps and the pushers to the police and the politicians, the musicians and the artists to everyday citizens—whose perseverance during these years reveals the true spirit of our city.
