Hobza/Rockhill Performative Lectures

Please join us for a pair of artist lectures on Friday, May 30th, 7pm
at Fivemyles Gallery in Brooklyn.

Artists Klara Hobza and Zach Rockhill will be presenting new
performative lectures.


Hobza's "Nay, I'll Have A Starling" induces the epic return of the
European Starling to its motherland. Hobza will defend her grand
quest, sharing documentation material from her personal experiences
during the project, as well as borrowed sources from her research.
Hobza invites you to discuss the related topics of art, science,
politics, and other fields of humankind's passionate involvement.

Zach Rockhill's "Mysterious case/Adventures in. . . ." is an ongoing
project that places two coincidental narratives about adventures of
dislocation on the North American continent alongside one another, and
presumes their contemporaneous import.

Fivemyles gallery is located at 558 St. Johns Place between Classon
and Franklin in Crown Heights Brooklyn. Directions by SUBWAY: 2,3,4,or
5 train to Franklin Ave. Walk 2 blocks against traffic on Franklin to
St. Johns Place. Turn left, walk half block to Fivemyles. Located on

Klara Hobza and Zach Rockhill are both recipients of the New York
Foundation for the Arts' (NYFA's) 2007 Artist Fellowship. This
presentation is co-sponsored by the artists and by Audience Exchange,
a NYFA public program.
