If you find yourself in Beacon, New York, check out the new @analog__diary and the debut group show “What A Long Strange Trip” Work: “Utica,” 2018. .... Derek Eller, Abby Messitte, Katharine Overgaard, and Franklin Parrasch are thrilled to announce the opening of a new collaborative gallery, @analog__diary in Beacon, NY. Analog Diary opens its inaugural exhibition What a Long Strange Trip on May 28, 2022. This show is an introduction to the work of artists who excite and engage us, and to the guiding principles of Analog Diary. Included in this exhibition are works by Jose Alvarez (D.O.P.A.), Radcliffe Bailey, Brian Belott, Stan Brakhage, Zach Bruder, Robin Cameron, Nicole Cherubini, Zoë Charlton, Al Freeman, Halsey Hathaway, George Herms, Miles Huston, JJ Manford, Lee Quiñones, Hannah Lupton Reinhard, Julia Rommel, Peter Saul, Elisa Soliven, and Dorothea Tanning. Our focus is to reimagine what focusing is: to focus on the senses, and the experience of engagement with art; to collapse boundaries and arbitrarily assigned categories; to rethink what a gallery can show – and to realize that it can be almost anything, from well-known, historically-documented movements to private histories being made in the moment. Analog Diary is a space where thinking about art without the mind clutter of an Instagrammable frame of reference is possible. What is off the table is the notion of ‘off the table’ – concepts of exclusion and a restricted mindset are not a thing here. What a Long Strange Trip is on view May 28—July 24, 2022. Analog Diary is open Saturdays and Sundays from 12—6pm, and by appointment. The gallery will screen Stan Brakhage's seminal 16mm film "Mothlight" (1963) on May 28 at 5:30pm. Dan Colen will present his performance The Executioner live on July 23 promptly at 2pm. These are both indoor events; masks are required and limited standing room is available, so please arrive early.
