May 8 - June 5, 2009
Ping Pong Gallery
San Francisco, CA

Ping Pong Gallery is pleased to present LIVE & DIRECT, a
group exhibition featuring the work of Erin Allen, John Chiara,
Renée
Gertler, Scott Hewicker, Donna Huanca, Bessma Khalaf, Travis Meinolf,
Nyeema Morgan, Erik Scollon and is curated by
Amanda Curreri.



Each artist was asked to contribute an Artwork and (an) Action
to be presented for one month, Live & Direct. For some,
the artwork and action become intertwined, others have chosen to keep
them mutually exclusive. The gallery is full to capacity, and then some. Events are
scheduled throughout the month in satellite locations and at the gallery.
You’ll find a Goon Squad boutique, a shameless shrine, and a pile
of cast assholes. One artist invites you to join him in crafting one
of his large scale photographs. Another will perform a song he wrote
for a painting he made, both for the occasion.



As a test of what can be expected from a gallery experience, LIVE
& DIRECT
challenges the artists, the visitors, and the
gallery space to up the ante. What do we desire from art exhibitions?
What do we need? From each other, and from ourselves? LIVE & DIRECT presents and promotes
the work of the artists involved but also implores all involved to consider
an expanded relationship of artwork and the world around us. See Calendar
of Events for ongoing events throughout the month.
