IN THE SKY
by Leesa and Nicole Abahuni

Wednesday November 29th, 6-8pm
Reception and special performance

Location One is happy to announce that dancer Glen Rumsey will be joining the special performance by New York-based avant-garde musician Elliott Sharp, and percussionists Danny Tunick and Christine Bard, during the opening of In The Sky (performance at 7pm, free).

The multimedia installation, which marks the first solo show for twin artists Leesa and Nicole Abahuni, is an exploration into the sharing of the senses and the interconnectedness between perception and sensation as experienced through visual, aural, and physical realms.

The exhibition will be on view through January 27^th 2007 (Tue-Sat, 12-6pm).

		American multi-instrumentalist, composer, and performer Elliott Sharp has personified the avant-garde experimental music scene in New York City for over thirty years. Sharp describes himself as a lifelong “science geek,” having modified and created musical instruments from his teen years. (website)Dancer, choreographer Glen Rumsey has worked with Merce Cunningham Dance Company, Mark Morris, Pam Tanowitz, and others. His dance suite ignored in my heaven… was performed at Location One last year to critical acclaim (website)

In The Sky was conceived by Leesa and Nicole Abahuni in their Location One studio while participating in Location One’s International Residency Program with support from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Arts.

This exhibition has received funding from the Peter Norton Family Foundation and assistance from Harvestworks
