Last chance to see Fences-Borders - closes this Friday at 6 PM.
Co-presented with Jack Straw Productions, this sound & video
installation investigates the US/Mexico border as metaphor and harsh
reality. Lerman, a veteran intermedia artist and master of the contact
microphone, made numerous field recordings of the steel fences
separating the two countries. Using home-built transducers and
amplifiers, these sounds are played back through a giant coil of
bougainvillea vine dividing the gallery like razor wire. A laser
intermittently surveils the border on aerial photo maps lining the
walls, while projected video documents the recording sites.
