ART WORTH (LISTENING) TO: Audio Visual Arts AVA
AVA (Audio Visual Arts) is a gem of a space. Stumbling inside is like taking a moment away from the world, like popping a magic pill, or entering an area of your psyche you save for special occasions. AVA is a white room located at 34 east 1st street. It is a quiet storefront on a quiet block. The current installation is a sparse collection of wire structures which sing and hum together in a hypnotic symphony. One of the only spaces focusing on audio work, AVA also features a site specific speaker box outside which is available at all hours for "unique public audio encounters". If the average gallery going experience exhausts you, AVA may be exactly the place to tune in.
