THE ART SHOW March 5–9, 2014 Park Avenue Armory Park Avenue at 67th Street New York City Gala Preview Tuesday, March 4, 2014 Hours Wednesday–Friday: 12 to 8pm Saturday: 12 to 7pm Sunday: 12 to 5pm CARL SOLWAY GALLERY, CINCINNATI BOOTH A23 presents  ANN HAMILTON O N E E V E R Y O N E   Touch is felt more than seen; we feel the glance of cloth’s fall, the weight of a hand, the press of a face against a glass window. Though its qualities are not always visible, to touch is always to be touched in return.     Photographing through a semi-opaque membrane created by Bayer MaterialScience, Hamilton is on site making photographic portraits of Art Show visitors that render in focus only what touches the material. The images record the experience of standing behind the film, where one can hear but cannot see. The resulting shallow focus, a consequence of the membrane’s visual qualities, emphasizes each point of contact and extends Hamilton’s interest in finding visual forms for tactile experience.     All art fair attendees are invited to participate without cost. Small unedited versions, 8 x 5.5 inches, are printed on site and posted for the length of the fair. Everyone photographed will receive by mail an ephemera portrait of someone from the series.      Large-scale portraits, 38 x 25 inches, are available for commission.     Carl Solway Gallery 424 Findlay Street Cincinnati, OH 45214 | Tel 513.621.0069 | solwaygallery.com Gallery Hours: Monday – Friday 9:00-5:00; Saturday noon-5:00pm

Ann Hamilton and Jane Hammond to Speak at the New York Public Library

Ann Hamilton, Jane Hammond and Lisa Pearson in Conversation New York Public Library/Art & Literature Series Event Wednesday, March 5 at 6:30 p.m. (Free) Artists Ann Hamilton and Jane Hammond converse with Siglio publisher Lisa Pearson about the myriad and fascinating ways in which their works and practices engage language and the literary. Both artists contributed works to It Is Almost That: A Collection of Image+Text Work by Women Artists & Writers, and the conversation begins by delving into those works, the shape of the stories they tell, and the process of “translating” them to be read and experienced on the page.
