In The Near Future

Sharon Hayes
Curated by Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy

002ncg605_4_lg_144_144In The Near Future is a series of actions of ten simulated protests by Sharon Hayes in New York City, taking place from November 1-9, 2005. The attending audience documented the events in a variety of media, and their images—in slide format-–are exhibited at Art in General on November 9, 2005.

002ncg605_3_lg_144_144In The Near Future is the second of two art projects by Hayes commissioned by Art in General. This performance was co-presented by Art in General and PERFORMA 05, the first biennial of new visual art performance at venues across New York City, from November 3-21, 2005. A catalogue published by PERFORMA with an essay about this project written by Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy is published in 2007.
