Garage Biennale: The Wunderkammer.

Artists: Sorry-- couldn't find a list.

Comment: Variety-pak of a show based, according to the spec sheet, on the concept of the "wunderkammer" or room where wonders unfold. Tonight's wonders include a video of a parakeet reacting to car sounds, a Volvo station wagon that's been converted into a motorhome (complete with sink, oven, grill, bed, power supply, and solar panels), artist Alexandria Pembleton conducting live rooftop mini-dates in her quest for a meaningful relationship (the performance art version of reality TV, I suppose), a pink wardrobe trunk with wardrobe, a subterranean mini-diaorama of a World War II dogfight, and more. Welcome to episode one of season 2 of the Garage Biennale-- five shows to go-- last Saturday of the month through October.
