This week marks Katy Grannan's East Coast debut of her first foray into the moving image: The Believers, a three-channel video installation that stars three performers who Grannan has been working with over time. A twin show around the corner will feature a series of color photographs, Boulevard, made with a medium-format digital camera often in the harsh hot light of the California sun. The subjects are characters she meets on the street, those fated to the mostly untrafficked sidewalk in a land full of dreams and dreamers otherwise safely tucked away in their cars. The shows open later this week at 6 p.m. on April 1st , and are on view through the 30th at Salon 94 Freeman's and Salon 94 Bowery, both on the Lower East Side of Manhattan at One Freeman's Alley and 243 Bowery, respectively. The galleries are open Tuesday afternoons, and Wednesdays through Saturdays, regular gallery hours. http://www.salon94.com/exhibitions/81/index.htm#current Stay tuned, as there is much more to report once this writer has seen the shows in a few weeks...
