Paper, Paper, Scissors
Thursday, November 13, 2003, 6 pm
Housing Works Bookstore, 126 Crosby Street, (just
south of Houston Street), New York
FREE

On November 13, 2003, Cabinet and SculptureCenter will
present a reading at Housing Works Bookstore in
conjunction with The Paper Sculpture Show. Readers
will include novelist and performer Jonathan Ames,
novelist and literary critic Shelley Jackson, and poet
and Cabinet editor Frances Richard.

Jonathan Ames will offer televisual evidence of his
lack of manual dexterity, thus explaining why his
kindergarten report card, which Jonathan's mom has
kindly sent to the Cabinet offices, shows him failing
"Scissors"; Shelley Jackson will display some of the
paper sculptures from her forthcoming interactive
book; and Frances Richard will reflect on the
relationship between the history of papermaking and
how writers have approached this lowliest of materials
in their daily work.

Thanks to Housing Works for hosting this event.


Up: An Evening of Films and Videos on Flying
Saturday, November 15, 2003, 7 pm
White Box, 525 West 26th St., New York
There will be slightly overpriced snacks and beverages
available for this event.
FREE

In conjunction with its issue on "Flight," Cabinet has
invited artist Luca Buvoli to curate an evening of
films around the theme of flying. Drawing on artist
films, scientific footage, and other sources, the
evening will address some of the uses (and abuses) to
which this paradigmatic technology of the 20th century
has been put.

Come see levitating tomatoes, NASA ink flow tests, and
as a special bonus, the artist video which "inspired"
the flying bag scene in the film American Beauty.

Films and videos by the following artists will be
included (not full list): Doug Aitken, Gino de
Dominicis, Carlo Ferraris, Ted Fisher, Gerard
Holthuis, Manon Labrecque, Beom Kim, Igor & Svetlana
Kopystiansky, Matt Marello, Jonathan Podwil, Jordan
Wolfson, Karen Yasinsky, and more…

Thanks to White Box for hosting this event
