Thanks be to Zeus for the return of Amalthea’s horn; it seems we have quite the celebration of nondualism on our hands! I’ve never been to Miami for art-weekend but, as a presenter this year I’m hereby required to encourage you to attend. The exact time is TBA, but on Saturday I’ll be giving a 25-ish minute talk entitled Good Morning to Happy Birthday to All, based on my essay of the same name, which is itself based on a more investigative research paper. I’ll also be making little videos of folks singing. 

The rest of the showcase mixes holography, economics, international relations, and online-dating in a way that feels more like a Cabinet / TED mini-event than an art-mall-stall.  On the visuals there’s two “main attractions”: Jeremy Dean’s horse-drawn Humvee (a contemporary Hoover Cart) circling the fairs, and samples from the recently discovered collection of eccentric Chasidic rabbi Aryeh Wuensch which include lithographs by Chagall, tapestries by Dali and Max Ernst, drawings by Keith Haring, photos by Christian Boltanski and Marina Abramovic, metal sculpture by Beverly Pepper – most of which have not been publicly shown since their respective openings, if at all.

“Navigating the borderlands of investigative practice, Spectre”, this is their self description, “long ago abandoned the catalogue notion of genre; as such Spectrevision humbly presents studio art work juxtaposed interchangeably with experiments and efforts that defy current modes of categorization, displayed alongside research materials and other relevant findings.”
