FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Saturday December 5th, 7-10 pm
Dan Graham is pleased to announce a night of two exhibitions “1969″ and “The Sharon Show” organized by Vincent Ramos.
“1969” and “The Sharon Show” are two different exhibitions that will share the same space for one night. “1969” is a show of performance-based works that respond to the key events of 1969 and/or uses them as a catalyst for commenting on our current state of affairs in this country and abroad. “The Sharon Show” is an exhibition of object-based works that give an aesthetic nod to that period while still remaining firmly fixed in today’s society. “The Sharon Show” is named after the actress Sharon Tate, who was murdered 40 years ago this past summer in Los Angeles. Both exhibitions are conceived as dual investigations into the role of anniversaries as they pertain to defining moments in American history.
-Vincent Ramos
For “1969″ and “The Sharon Show” Dan Graham’s sign has been changed out with a sign reading The Friends of Distinction stemming from the Los Angeles R&B group who’s debut album was released in 1969. This temporary name change is something very much encouraged at Dan Graham, which is to support any given exhibition’s context through language and signification.
