A Gallery for Fine Photography Artist


Artist Reception
Saturday, December 9, 5-8pm
on view through February 25, 2018
IN CONJUNCTION with PhotoNOLA and Prospect.4

Below Sea Level, the latest body of work from New Orleans artist Michel Varisco, imagines a metaphorical future for citizens after global sea levels have risen to overtake the land. In these magical realist photographs and assemblages, Varisco explores the intimate and complex experience of life in an endangered community, where citizens feel such a powerful connection to their home that they would rather reinvent themselves than abandon it. Unconventionally shot while submerged underwater, Below Sea Level also functions as a performative collaboration; Varisco gets in the water with a diverse group of residents who have been gently coached to surrender to their subaqueous state, with no air tanks or breathing masks to support them. These photographs establish a profound connection between the viewer, the subject, and the artist herself – all of whom float silently together in this strange oceanic world. Below Sea Level embodies a poetic response to the predicted fate of rising waters, as we struggle, adapt, float, and endure to create a new world beneath the water’s surface. 

Below Sea Level is in conjunction with PhotoNOLA and Michel Varisco’s Prospect.4 installationTurning (Prayer Wheels for the Mississippi River)a permanent public sculptural installation on the Lafitte Greenway in New Orleans.

SATELLITE ART SHOW 2017 will be held at the Ocean Terrace Hotel Dec. 7-10

SATELLITE ART SHOW


ANNOUNCING OUR MIAMI PROGRAM

***

SATELLITE ART SHOW 2017 will be held at the Ocean Terrace Hotel, an abandoned beachfront hotel that provides us with complete creative control. Our alternative venue coupled with our focus on experiential installations, makes SATELLITE the antithesis to the standard art fair. We look forward to welcoming you! #satelliteartshow #notbasel

NOVEMBER 16, 2017

40 rooms of an abandoned hotel repurposed into immersive, experiential, and often participatory exhibitions. SATELLITE, now in its third year is an artist-run and concept-driven alternative art fair that positions itself at the convergence of art, performance, new media, and technology. “The return to our dystopian hotel is a natural move for us. South Beach was great last year, but we were restricted by the regulations of the space. This year we will provide a truly visionary experience for our guests, restriction free” said SATELLITE creative director Brian Whiteley of the fair’s experiential emphasis.
SATELLITE’s repurposed hotel spaces will house a dynamic array of art presentations. Some notable projects include acclaimed collective Meow Wolfcreating a brand new environment specially for SATELLITE. Returning for the third year in a row is New Orleans own Dangerous Rose. This year Rose will present her newest project “Clown-Cockateur”, a provocative and sensual “clown-meets-pole-dancer” experience. Performance is Alive’s nonstop performance art lounge returns for the second year and will feature over 20 pieces with interactive performances, durational works on the beach and video screenings. Some highlights of the program will be a politically focused panel discussion/slumber party hosted by Operation Catsuit, Ayana Evans and PINK PRIVACY, and an intimate performance by acclaimed poet/artist Jessica Yatrofsky. Miami’s Borscht Corp (a popular biennial in film, tech and performance) is set to debut a special installation of works just for SATELLITE and is a great opportunity to discover local talent during an arts week typically focused on international players. Bushwick’s Famous On Mars returns for the second year and has partnered with Susie Magazine to produce a rotating array of wearable art objects, live tattooing (2 days), a zine nook with feminist publications available to peruse and purchase, and fine art objects with a strong participatory component. Miami’s Nice’N Easy will be transforming the main lobby of SATELLITE into a hazy, beach-dazed “guest check-in” installation. If you’re looking to check out some cutting edge works of art and get a free hair cut/dye job, head to the TANGA collective’s booth. The School of Visual Arts NY will present two installations, one of which includes a lie detector test inside of a defunct bathroom. Keeping fun and interactivity at the forefront, SATELLITE has two “Dance Hall” installations for you to experience. Haute to Death, a popular nightclub from Detroit will be producing a micro nightclub and sculpture installation, and The HAUNT (in partnership with GIPHY), has created a virtual reality dance hall, so pop on the oculus goggles and dance with the “ghosts of Miami’s past”, all on a light up dance stage. Renowned performance artist Kalup Linzy will be debuting his “Tangled Up” music video series at SATELLITE – so we can also expect live performances from this world-class artist! If you want to play some beer pong, head to the LOG/Camayhus booth where art collective Girl Don’t Be Dumb will challenge you to an epic Beer Pong game. CHASM.NYC is presenting the work of visual artist Julia Sinelnikova, a veteran of the Brooklyn art scene who was recently awarded a large-scale public art commission for the parks department in NYC. While you traverse the halls of SATELLITE please pay attention to all the nooks, crannies and closets as NY Collective Lounge Corp has taken over these locations for some “Fish Bowl Art Exhibitions”.
Aside from a stellar array of fine art presentations, SATELLITE has partnered with NY’s Le Poisson Rouge to produce several after parties. More on that SOON!
Through a regard for collectability but an emphasis on interactivity and unfiltered creative expression, SATELLITE Art Show aims not to compete with its sister satellite fairs but to differentiate itself as the most memorable art-viewing experience visitors will have all week. Expect the unexpected and stay for all the experiences, as no two moments will be the same at SATELLITE. We look forward to welcoming you to our abandoned hotel on the beach. #satelliteartshow #notbasel
