April 30 – July 29, 2011
Hiraki Sawa: Other Dwellings presents seminal single-channel works of this young Japanese-born artist whose videos have placed him at the forefront of a new generation of video artists. Sawa’s videos are intimate, sometimes hermetic meditations on place and the wonderfully odd activities that can occur in imaginative dimensions. The fantastical becomes everyday; the supernatural becomes commonplace.
