I’ll be at the opening of Goldsmiths: MFA 2007 Survey   and will report on it after I attend:

“Goldsmiths has one of the most competitive Visual Arts programs in the world; numerous past graduates have won the illustrious Turner Prize. The artists in the show include Jeanine Woollard, winner of the Beck’s Futures 2006 Student Bursary award, Ryan O’Connor, co-founder of the artist collective Madagascar Institute, and Gudni Gunnarsson, who exhibited at the Pompidou Centre in Paris as a member of the artist collective Poni. Additional participants include: Emanuel Almborg, Richard Clements, Erin Crowe, Sarah Gilder, Robb Jamieson, Yuko Kamei, Maria-Brigita Karantzi, Sonia Morange, Christopher Paquet and Raymond Taudin-Chabot.

The show is being curated by Jennifer Thatcher, a London-based independent curator and critic, and will include works by 13 artists from the first year class working in painting, sculpture, photography, installation, and video. An essay by Jennifer Thatcher will accompany the exhibition, exploring some of the themes of the show that range from the myth of British chivalry to existentialist studies of businessmen and why rock music might be better than contemporary art.”

Also covering the next meeting of the NYC Podcasting Association Meetup on Wednesday, at the Skylight Diner on W34th Street, after I go to the Goldsmith’s opening at White Box.

Amy Crehore also told me about one more show to cover about Josephine Baker at the Lincoln Center Library - if I don’t make it over on Wednesday - I’ll cover it later this week.

“This exhibit of images documents Josephine Baker’s great Paris triumph, ‘Le Revue Negre,’ the show that established her international reputation as a performer. The exhibit, developed by Jean-Claude Baker, has been augmented by reproductions of rarely seen White Studio photographs from her earlier 1920s appearances in Broadway revues. “

There should be a lot of good news about all three; tune in later!
