TICKETS + INFORMATION
Laurie Berg stumbled upon the odd fact that a chameleon’s two eyes operate independently of each other, both physically and perceptually — so that even when they focus on the same thing, they create diptychs (like the two pictures of the same thing in one of those old steoreopticons). Out of that came this new piece exploring multiple perception of the same thing. Audience members are invited to observe the proceedings from two different perspectives set up in the Chocolate Factory space: a white-box gallery (featuring sparking wine and canapes) and a divey sports bar (featuring cheap beer).
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: You’ve GOT to go to Sinaloan sensation Cielito and have a Chilorio taco, one of the best things you can eat in New York right now (other stuff is pretty great, too).
