Artists Talk on Art

SoHo 20 Chelsea

547 West 27 Street, Suite 301

New York, NY

Keren Cytter's videos have a distinctly literary flavour. Although her medium is tape and she makes countless references to cinematic and televised forms, her scripts often involve long soliloquies and multiple voice-overs that would seem more comfortable unravelling over the pages of a novel. The subject matter of her work is the stuff of relationships � loss, loving, longing, friendship, betrayal � much of it culled from her own or her friends' lives.' - frieze.com

Keren Cytter has had solo exhibitions at CCA Center for Contemporary Art, Kitakyushu (2009), Witte de With, Rotterdam (2008), and MUMOK, Vienna (2007). Her work was included in the New Museum's landmark exhibition The Generational: Younger Than Jesus, and the 53rd Venice Biennale curated by Daniel Birnbaum.

A conversation will ensue after artist talk with ATOA's Director of Programming, Peter Duhon, followed by questions and answer session with audience.

Doors will open at 6:30PM, and the talk will begin at 7:30PM. For more information, please visit the Artists Talk on Art website.
