WHEN    Thursday September 25th, 2008 from 6:00 - 9:00 PM - Completed Project
and Opening reception


Anonymous Gallery is extremely pleased to present its inaugural exhibition: an
ambitious collaborative project and exhibition created by Eltono and MOMO - entitled
PLAF – Autonomous Mechanisms. Plaf is a word for splash in both Spanish and
French and relates to the on-going project that features kinetic sculptures that have
been placed and fastened in several locations in the New York Waterways.
Constructed from used materials, the work will be left to the elements as a way to
explore the force and power of water that goes unused and unnoticed in New York
City. Using the rivers water, wind, tides, and currents, the sculptures will shift and
decay, leaving the work just as it is without comment on form or representation. Early
in September Anonymous Gallery will be providing an information booth and map
created by the artists. The public can then go search and find the on-going outdoor
artwork and share in the environment in which it is presented. This information will
be available during business hours and online at
www.anonymousgallery.com

Throughout the month of September, Eltono and MOMO will also be constructing an
indoor exhibition that reflects the work and progress outdoors. While their project is
primarily ephemeral, the indoor exhibition will serve to document and preserve their
research, ideas, model making and related art. Every three to five days Eltono and
MOMO will install new work that includes silkscreen prints, video, collage, painting,
and sculpture. The on-going exhibition, along with the map and information will be
available to the public from September 8th until October 10th and will be celebrated
with a public exhibition opening on September 25th from 6 - 9 pm.
