'Keren Cytter's videos have a distinctly literary flavour. Although her medium is tape and she makes countless
references to cinematic and televised forms, her scripts often involve long soliloquies and multiple voice-overs
that would seem more comfortable unravelling over the pages of a novel.
The subject matter of her work is the stuff of relationships – loss, loving, longing, friendship, betrayal –
much of it culled from her own or her friends' lives.' - frieze.com
Keren Cytter has had solo exhibitions at CCA Center for Contemporary Art, Kitakyushu (2009), Witte de With, Rotterdam (2008), and MUMOK, Vienna (2007). Her work was included in the New Museum's landmark exhibition The Generational: Younger Than Jesus, and the 53rd Venice Biennale curated by Daniel Birnbaum. Conversation will ensue after artist talk with ATOA's Director of Programming, Peter Duhon, followed by questions and answer session with audience. |

Vernita Nemec, AKA Vernita N'Cognita, hosts an evening honoring & remembering Nancy Spero.
Highlights from Nemec's '96 ATOA interview of Spero will be shown, and special guests and audience members will be invited
to share their stories & memories of Nancy.
"Spero was a pioneer of feminist art. Her work since the 1960s is an unapologetic statement against the pervasive abuse of power, Western privilege, and male dominance. Executed with a raw intensity on paper and in ephemeral installations, her work often draws its imagery and subject matter from current and historical events such as the torture of women in Nicaragua, the extermination of Jews in the Holocaust, and the atrocities of the Vietnam War."

Suddenly, Philippe's steamy romantic affair twists and turns into a dangerous spiral of disturbing obsession. From acclaimed French director and master of mystery Claude Chabrol comes this love story entwined in macabre madness" Netflicks | |

'Valentines from a violent world, John Newsom's paintings and works on paper, which draw on sources such as natural history displays and antique field guides, are laced with dangerous beauty. Meticulously rendered bats and insects materialize amid branches, vines and fleshy blossoms, while myriad birds of prey tear at carrion or snatch up smaller creatures.' - Frieze Born in 1970 in Kansas, Newsom earned his BFA at the Rhode Island School of Design and his MFA at New York University. Since his debut in the early 90s, Newsom's work has been displayed in 15 solo exhibitions, including recent shows in New York and Milan, Italy. His work has been included in over 50 group exhibitions, including shows at the Guggenheim. - Patrick Painter Inc Conversation will ensue after artist talk with ATOA's Director of Programming, Peter Duhon, followed by questions and answer session with audience. |  John Newsom |
