There was a very cool video exhibit by artist Nari Ward titled 'Sweater' + 'Jaunt' which was located in the back room. In a wide room the projectors showed an image of the artists pores sweating furiously while asleep. Juxtaposed on the opposite wall were images of a boat at sea in Jamaica and then it cuts to a man washing an invisible car in North Adams, MA. This piece got the most attention, visitors sat down in the dark room and gazed while slowly turning their heads trying to understand the piece. My companion thought that the images of Jamaica and the washing of the invisible car were a dream the artist was having, sweating profusely while dreaming. It was definitely an interesting piece.
