September’s Late Edition, by Julieta Aranda	LentSpace – Late Edition #3 featuring Common Room (Lars Fischer, Maria Ibanez & Todd Rouhe) Punning “late editions,” when newspapers once released an evening edition of breaking news with a “late addition,” as in an afterthought or correction, this print-based series aims to put the current exhibition and overall space up for review by artists and architects. Instead of following the conventions of newspaper publishing, these responses take the form of a new artwork “edition” that will serve as a compliment, retort, or simply a non-sequitur. By appropriating each newspaper distribution box in LentSpace as a gallery-in-itself, each edition will become both part of the larger exhibition and the site as a whole, yet will also serve as a take-home gift — often found by surprise —for any visitor. Drop Date Monday, November 16 Location LentSpace distribution boxes; City block at Canal, Varick, Grand, and Sullivan Streets Subway Directions 1 and A/C/E to Canal Street
	Swing Space Presents Works-in-Progress from our Performing Artists-in-Residence Our rehearsal space at 14 Wall Street continues to be busy with activity as recent grantees in the performing arts develop new works in various genres. Join us again in November for three exciting presentations from choreographer Catherine Galasso, and composer/musicians Eleonor Sandresky and Geoff Gersh. Space at 14 Wall Street is generously donated by Capstone Equities.
	Swing Space Resident Choreographer Catherine Galasso presents Show Me The Money Show Me The Money is an evening of dance theater vignettes created specifically for the former bank vault at 14 Wall Street. The vignettes examine how the economy affects the public psyche, how fear of the future affects our capacity for intimacy, and how anxiety manifests in human cruelty and hopelessness. The dismal nature of these topics is transformed through satire, as the situations that the characters embody are exaggerated to the point of absurdity. Each performance will be followed by a dance party (!) with beer and wine. Follow the development of Show Me the Money online Catherine's dance, video, and performance art works can be seen at her website Dates & Times Thursday–Saturday, November 5-7, 8PM Location LMCC Swing Space, 14 Wall Street, Level B Tickets $10 in advance, $15 at the door (suggested) Purchase tickets here.
	Swing Space Resident Composer Eleonor Sandresky Presents a Work-in-Progress Performance of Walk in My Shoes Walk In My Shoes is a sonic autobiography and photo essay for solo piano that traces Eleonor Sandresky‘s southern family roots through North Carolina, Charleston, SC, and Savannah and Macon, GA. In this piece, she uses field recordings made on a sojourn through the South with photographer, Roseann Rush, whose images enhance the soundscapes. Their voices appear and disappear, as do their footsteps. The sounds are processed and interleaved, and then triggered through a computer and live sensor system that Sandresky will wear and manipulate live while she plays the piano. Dates & Times Sunday, November 8, 2PM & 8PM Location LMCC Swing Space, 14 Wall Street, Level B This event is FREE! RSVP is required: varsa@sandresky.com
