"Weaving Language" Reading, Tuesday Jan. 15th, 7-9

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 16:41:10 -0500

End of Century is pleased to host a reading with artist Francesca Capone on Tuesday, January 15th, from 7-9PM.

Francesca will be reading selections from her book, Weaving Language, which was published on the occasion of her exhibition at End of Century. Regarding the book, Capone describes:

“The dictionary I published in conjunction with WEAVING LANGUAGE is a foundation for the work in the gallery. It explores structural similarities between writing and weaving. In its linking of symbols (such as colors and weaving methods) with semantics, the dictionary
acts as a translation tool between the visual and the textual. Verbs are likened to woven structure, nouns and adjectives to color, prepositions to interlocking threads, and other qualities of language to respective aspects of textiles. Many choices are left open (for instance, the color red could have 84 possible semantic meanings) which provides the opportunity to strengthen the crafts of writing and weaving while investigating their relationship. The dictionary
functions as a prompt and a multitude of variations are possible from resulting translations. The use of these structural principles becomes a mutually informing process for both crafts, inviting new possibilities for poems based on textiles, and vice-versa. Space is created for both forms to exist separately and in relation to each other, thus multiplying the ways in which the viewer experiences the work.” — Francesca Capone

The event also marks the launch of Francesca’s newest limited-edition publication, Weaving at the Moment.

Elise McMahon, a collaborator on the installation of the show, also collaborated on the concept and experience of the reading. http://elisemcmahonmade.com/

Weaving Language the installation is currently showing at End of Century through January 17th http://www.endofcenturynyc.com/exhibitions/

Launched by Rachel Albright in 2010, “Academy Jewelry was founded on a love for visual art, an interest in fashion, and a desire to combine the two. This ever-evolving jewelry line seeks to embolden simplicity and find the delicate balance between the organic and the avant-garde. All pieces are made entirely by hand in Richmond, Virginia and are a one-of-a-kind venture in art meeting accessory.” What more can we say?

Jordan Colon, chef and owner of Greenpoint’s Eat, speaks of his restaurant in the same way one would speak about art making itself. “The business is in the imaginary realm. It’s conceptual, it’s conceptual art. Any movement, any sort of change or revolution – whatever you want to call it, I call it evolution – comes with art. Art comes first and that sets the groundwork for the rest of the people. They have to be able to stomach it. So this is art.” Perhaps it comes as no surprise then that Colon’s talents stretch beyond the confines of the kitchen. His porcelain and clay pottery speaks with the same crisp comfort as the food he puts on his plates. Each are beautiful in their simplicity as they rely on the wonders of their natural essences to transcend tasters and viewers alike. Not only is the food locally sourced, but so are the dishes upon which they are served. At the moment Colon manages to make a majority of the restaurants pottery himself. Within the coming year he aims to raise enough money to purchase a kiln and transform the space into a pottery studio. He believes that “the local movement should not stop at food, but be applied to all objects that are a part of our lives.” Get your potted fix here at End of Century!

Awareness & Consciousness arriving soon at EOC!

Mon, 15 Oct 2012 15:54:26 -0400

Not that we don’t already possess that ourselves here at End of Century… Rather, we’re talking about the mesmerizing AW12/13 line by Vienna designer, A&C.

Launched by Christiane Gruber in 2005, the line features flowing and sensuous creations comprised of high-quality jersey materials. Each piece is individually treated using a hand-formulated bleaching and dying technique, promising that every article is unique in its own, special way. The subtly psychedelic patterns that emerge are reminiscent of the cosmic compositions found in those breathtaking photographs of outer space. Through a balance of sophistication and practicality, the line becomes simultaneously unearthly and down-to-earth.
