Pharmakon Library by Christina McPhee
Pharmakon Library is an ongoing series of graphic folios created and curated by Christina McPhee. The folios comprise a series of open works by artists who address, through image and/or text, the principle of critical reversibility, or proximity of poison and cure. "Pharmakon" in Greek may mean antidote, recipe, poison, drug, spell, remedy, drug, talisman, gift and paint. Each folio consists of a series of between 8 and 12 digital pigment jet archival prints by a single artist or a small group / collective of up to 3 artists. Each folio is produced as an edition of three. The scale of each folio images is 13 x 19 inches each (Super B). Print stock is Epson exhibition photographic paper and/or Hahnemule German Etching archival paper; archival inks, with, in some instances, hand drawings.
A list of initially participating artists is TBA soon in connection with the project debut at the New York Art Book Fair in late October 2008 http://www.nyartbookfair.com/about.php (A related speculative architectural installation brief for a possible library with a new media component, involving transcoding of Twitter messages into a sound space at the center of a temporary structure, is explored in a text online here, together with pharmakon images: http://christinamcphee.net/pharmakon_library/index.html )
The project is produced in association with Silverman Gallery, San Francisco.

Joy and Misery, curated by Ben Shaffer
Joy and Misery
Christopher Badger, Jackson Fledermaus, Sarah Lowing, Center for
Tactical Magic, Anna Mayer, Deirdre McConnell, Karthik Pandian, Devon
Tsuno, and Conrail Twitty
October 25 to November 22, 2008
Opening Saturday October 25 from 7-10pm
Five Thirty Three is proud to announce Joy and Misery, curated by Ben Shaffer, as a continuation of their exhibitions focusing on contemporary art crafted by young and emerging artists.
Joy and Misery are emotions that exist together, both in contradiction
and collaboration. The work in this exhibition creates a space in
which these dualities simultaneously emerge. It poses questions,
raises possibilities, and meditates on the current state of
contemporary events and individual views.
The exhibition subconsciously addresses the human ability to manifest
and regard how opposites create a contradictory understanding of the
center of existence, and questions what that center is.
"Whenever one moves out of the transcendent one comes into a field of
opposites. One of the problems of life is to live with the realization
of both terms, that is to say, I know the center and I know that good
and evil are simply temporal aberrations, and that in God's view,
there is no difference."-Joseph Campbell
Artists presenting work in the show are Christopher Badger, Jackson
Fledermaus, Sarah Lowing, Center for Tactical Magic, Anna Mayer,
Deirdre McConnell, Karthik Pandian, Devon Tsuno, and Conrail Twitty.
Five Thirty Three is located at 533 Los Angeles St., 2nd Floor in
downtown Los Angeles between 5th and 6th Streets. The exhibition
opens on Saturday October 25 and runs until November 22. An opening
reception for the artists will be held on Saturday October 25 from
7-10pm. The Gallery is open from Monday to Friday from 7-10pm and
Saturdays from 11am-5pm. Phone: (213) 627-1541.

The opening will also feature live performances by Fresher Flesh,
