Bridget Baker
"But we look so good in our uniforms..."
June 14th - August 2nd, 2008
Opening Reception June 14th 7 - 10 PM
Bridget Baker is from South Africa, but her work is produced all over the world. Baker's practice diversely spans participatory performance, the making of intricate objects, and directing and producing extensive stills and moving photography projects. Baker is concerned with observing public and private methods of surviving the mundanity of adult responsibility, particularly tedious and difficult hourly labor. Her inconspicuous heroines (eg. The Pilot, Cindy in "Extra Soles", The Sunday Morning Wonder Woman in "Return of the SMWW") are iconic and work to prove their invicibility. With one foot set in the fiction of popular iconic figures like The Invisible Woman and Wonder Woman, the other is set in the economy of the everyday.

Perpetual Art Machine presents
The Future Was Then [PART2] Regurgitating Histories
Please join us in the SCOPE BASEL VIP Lounge to celebrate
Perpetual Art Machine's first show in the elite fine art landscape of Basel Switzerland and to commemorate the video
art legend Nam June Paik. Paik was credited over thirty years ago with
coining the phrase “The future is now”. [PAM] asks what that means
today in our rapidly changing world by re-presenting an ambitious program
of five specially curated video projects originally organized for Scope New York 2008 by Jarrett Gregory,
Robert Adanto, Yiannis Colakides and Helene Black, Andrew Erdos in addition to the newest incarnation of the [PAM] installation and a specially curated section by [PAM] founders Chris Borkowski, Raphaele Shirley and Lee Wells.
Special thanks to Scope Art Fairs, NeME.org, and IFAC.

Meat Market Gallery is pleased to present TIME MACHINE, a selection of trans-media works from the online international video collective Perpetual Art Machine [PAM], curated by PAM 'Artist at Large' Amelia Winger-Bearskin. Winger-Bearskin's careful selection of video works, time-based objects and sound pieces transform the gallery space into a time machine ready to steal moments of your time and store them for future generations. Access the future, see the recorded past and donate your time. Every moment that is consumed during the course of this show will be given to the international consortium for the preservation of time well spent.
The front gallery features a video portal, a time capsule and other objects from past and future. In the rear gallery, viewers will find a compaction of three years of performance art, archived through a residue of sound.
An interactive performance at the exhibition's opening on June 6 will utilize the manufactured darkness of the gallery space to ease the audience into what can only be described as a contraction of time and space. Spelunk around the gallery and find the hidden gems. Be prepared, these works will make time travelers of us all.
Viewers beware - this is an out of control time machine. Who knows where you might end up.
