eyewash@ Parkers Box presents NEW AMERICAN STORY ART eyewash@Parkers Box 193 Grand St. Brooklyn October 15 through November 14 2004 VIDEO & PERFORMANCE NIGHT: Friday, October 29th, 7-10 pm (free) Jim Torok Lust for Life NEW AMERICAN STORY ART is a survey of current 'story art' being created in the United States. Since the early-1970's this genre of narrative art has gone widely unnoticed. This exhibition is a showcase for artists who have developed new ways through expanded formats and new technology to give this direction in visual art new 'looks' and possibilities. Nate Larson, Jim Torok, David Kramer, Carla Gannis, Dotty Attie, Sue Coe, Scott Teplin, Renee French, Larry Krone, Joe Sacco and Mac Adams are featured in an exhibition of multi-media, mixed media and installation art. Renee French Housing On Friday, October 29th eyewash in conjunction with Parkers Box presents an evening of video and performance dealing with story-telling. Performers include lap-top storytelling by Jon Keith Brunelle, kookie country and Western ballads by Larry Krone, and angry artworld rants by David Kramer. Jon Keith Brunelle brings his laptop storytelling: rapid-fire digital slide show comprising hundred's of vintage movie stills, remixed to form satiric new stories that he tells in live voice over. Every hour is 'Happy Hour' for slacker artist David Kramer who shares six stories about the modern world, and his inability to find happiness and success. Larry Krone serenades us with kooky country and western ballads concerning life and love. Just off a hot show at the Fez, Larry sings his heart out. A full video program will be shown twice featuring new works by Suzie Silver, Justin Marshall, William Powhida, Nora Ligorano & Marshall Reese, David Kramer and Carla Gannis.
