Sadie Benning Showing in New York
Laimah
I had the fortune to watch Sadie Benning’s Play Pause this weekend at the Dia in Chelsea. It was amazingly simple and powerful at the same time. It was a loose animation, or a compilation of her drawings moving to a beautiful electric ambient soundtrack that she produced. The drawing are mostly of city life, and people interacting. Sadie said during her interview at the Dia that post 9/11 she wanted to be outside a lot. She wanted to make more human connections as well as to document it, in her city of Chicago. Unfortunately, Play Pause only played this weekend at the Dia. But Sadie is showing a series of abstract drawings Form of a waterfall at Orchard gallery until October 7th.
