Postmasters Gallery – Chelsea
459 West 19th Street, 212-727-3323
October 18 – November 15, 2008,
Postmasters Gallery is pleased to announce “summertale” – an exhibition of a new video and a series of photographs by Polish artist Katarzyna Kozyra. The show will open on October 18 and will be on view until November 15, 2008. This will be the artist’s third solo exhibition in New York.
“summertale,” a 20 minutes long vibrant video that veers between bucolic bliss and blood splattered grotesque, is a theatrically staged fairy tale fantasy starring Kozyra, Maestro, Gloria Viagra and five female dwarfs. And, like in fairytales, the characters reenact the struggles of good and evil, right and wrong, us and them, innocence and guilt, stopping just short of “happily ever after” resolution.
