"As the "Art" World Turns" -- as we knew it for the past 15 years --
unravels in the midst of world-wide recessions and economic crises, the
question of who/what will survive and how have become prevalent in
discussions amongst art critics, art fair attendees, dealers, art students,
museum goers, gallery visitors, collectors, curators, and, of course,
artists themselves. However, it is also a chance (especially) for the latter
to imagine, implement and defend new parameters for art production and circulation. The question is what should these models look like, what direction should they take, and how would they fit into the world at large?
The artist group ArtistsMeeting (AM) plans to publish an edited sampling of theories, proposals and opinions, as well as diagrams, graphics and images in hope to jumpstart a fresh critical debate. Therefore, we call for image and text contributions from across the
current "art world".

Artists Meeting and Postmasters Gallery Present:
Triptych Party in collaboration with You3b.com
January 10th 7-9pmPostmasters Gallery459 W. 19th St. NYC
The art collective Artists Meeting presents an evening of video curiosities: found, outsider and accidental video art, culled from youtube, and spun into triptychs using You3b.com.
Video triptychs involve three simultaneous video loops projected side by side on the gallery wall.While formally simple, the effect of the looping sequences, overlapping sounds and awkward juxtapositions is uncanny and unsettling. This is due to the slippery dis-harmonization of clip lengths, and the conceptual layering of the elements within the videos.
For this 2nd youtube video show at Postmasters Gallery, the curators Thomas Hutchison, Maria Joao Salema and James Andrews have selected dozens of examples of original U3B triptychs created bymembers of Artists Meeting.
Artists Meeting is a New York City based art collective. Since it's official start in 2006, they have had public art projects in Conflux 2008 and the Dumbo Arts Festival 2007. http://www.artistsmeeting.org
You3b is a tool that allows users to make triptychs out of YouTube videos. An Eyebeam projectconceived by Jeff Crouse, produced by Jeff Crouse and Andrew Mahon and designed and coded byAndrew Mahon. http://www.you3b.com.
Complimentary drinks will be served.
NOTE: Some of the works presented in this show are graphic and potentially inappropriate for children, the squeamish, and the easily offended.
