Welcome back to SAM!

Starting August 24, 2020, la Salle A Manger moves into the Garden of the Invisible Dog.

The garden of the Invisible Dog is about 2,000 square feet, with trees, plants, flowers, a little fountain. A secret oasis in the center of Brooklyn.

With this outdoor space to guarantee your safety, Lucien Chef Ambition offers luncheons or dinners on socially-distanced tables around the garden, with the same quality and creativity as usual.

Earth needs healing. We need healing. Our connection to the earth needs healing. Anne Mourier is proposing to wash and massage your feet in warm water (another symbol associated with the Feminine) and Marseille soap in a compassionate gesture. She would like to discuss your feminine side, taking care and our relation to Earth with you.

CLOSET WORKS is a monthly Theater in Quarantine (TiQ) performance lab of short dance-based work featuring choreographer Katie Rose McLaughlin and special guest artists. Presented by the Invisible Dog Art Center with additional support from Mamie Kanfer and Justin Stewart, CLOSET WORKS is dedicated to creating work that embraces the architecturally imposed constraints that have defined this current moment of unprecedented isolation and unrest.

One audience member, surrounded by a tunnel of blue light, descends towards a single performer behind a wall of glass. In a 9 minute and 2 second performance–the female record for static apnea–this performative installation explores how far one might be willing to go to save a life.

Brothers Steven and William Ladd have been working with inmates in the NYC Department of Corrections for the past nine years as part of their art practice. Their experiences have been humbling, emotional and an incredible way to connect with inmates. “No one’s ever cared about me enough to have a conversation like this,” said one inmate during an interaction. The Other Side is an exhibition of artworks inspired by moments like this.

DONATE HERE! Thank you for your support!

All June long.

Over the course of 2018, Sumi Clements and Taryn Vander Hoop travelled intermittently by Camper Van around the country researching ideas of how geography shapes ideology, in conjunction with the social theories of habitus and performativity.

Odalisque is a performance by Peter Clough in which he reimagines the classical reclining nude as a gender non-conforming queer bondage submissive. Sculpture, projection, text, live performance, and music come together in an immersive environment that complicates power relations between sub and Dom, viewer and performer, subject and object.

Conceptual artist Anne Mourier strongly believes that “Taking Care” is important and maypossibly be the only way to mend our broken society: “Taking Care” of our planet, “Taking Care” of things instead of replacing them, “Taking Care” of each other.
