The CCA Wattis Institute reopens on September 10 with two new exhibitions.
Sam Lewitt: More Heat Than Light is in one gallery. Ten custom made flexible heaters are attached to the gallery’s track lighting. Flipping the gallery’s light switch turns the heaters on, and the institution’s energy consumption is transferred from light to heat.
Taking the concepts of flexibility and enclosure as its departure point, the installation presents a confrontation between the physical properties of heat and light.
Curated by Anthony Huberman and co-organized with Kunsthalle Basel.
In the other gallery Frances Scholz and Mark Von Schlegell present Amboy, a new horror film project that interlaces passages of genuine documentary with carefully scripted and acted sequences. Scholz, a painter and filmmaker, edited, shot and directed the film in a number of semi-improvised sequences cowritten and coproduced with art theorist and science fiction author von Schlegell. Curated by Jamie Stevens.
