Axiom presents "Riders on the Train"

I have a little web-based animation (if you go to the animation, make sure your speakers are on) that's included in the Riders on the Train show curated by Nance Davies.

The opening reception is tonight (Friday November 13th, 2009) at 6:00 pm. I'm not able to make it to the openings, but if you're in Boston you might want to drop by.

From the press release:

'RIDERS on the TRAIN' is an interdisciplinary art exhibition exploring new relationships between artist, audience, site, and context. Drawn from an international call for submissions, these artists and writers explore 'the private within the public' experience of mass-transit in Sweden, Australia, South Africa, India, Switzerland, NYC, London, Madrid, Paris, Berlin, Mexico City, Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, LA, DC, Portland, and Boston. The poetics of acceleration, compression, fragmentation and sensory immersion are explored as the artists record, collaborate, and devise small scale tactical interventions - juxtaposing high with low technology. 'Riding Artists' sample their 'ride' and generate an aggregate description of the mass-transit experience through a diversity of lenses and media including video, sound art, photography, web-based interactivity, performance, installation and writing.

Artists in the show include Manuel Vazquez, Sarah Rushford, Stephen Cady, Jeff Morris, Jesse Malmed, Nance Davies, Andrew Sempere, Denise Marika and Dana Moser, Henry Gwiazda, Francois de Costere, Ethan Ham, Colleen Alborough and Joao Orecchia, Scott Hall, Marc McNulty, Dylan Mortimer, Zehra Kahn, Erick Conrad, Ben Chaffee, Jason Nelson, Nita Sturiale, Ximena Alarcon, Sherry Karver, Marianne Fourie, Lia Chavez, Yuri Stone, Helene Zuckerbrod, Marian Berelowitz, Lisa McCarty, Katherin McInnis, Jamie Waelchli, Guy Telemaque, Gary Duehr, Susan Bregman, Carolyn Lewenberg, Yetti Frenkel, Harvey Loves Harvey, Alexia Mellor and Sarah Banasiak, Fred Wolflink, Jerel Dye, Jake Lee-High, Sean O’Brien and writer/poets Jeremy Hight, Kamarie Chapman Leora Silverman Fridman, Sarah Goodman, Gordon Fearey, Colette A.
