Micro Museum 123 Smith Street (b/w Pacific/Dean -- F & G to Bergen St)

Micro Museum is hosting dozens of national artists in a new presentation series called SPECTRUM: THE CHAKRA. This monthly color fest will feature predominant colors in a chakra series on the following dates in 2007: Rainbow NOVEMBER 3 – DECEMBER 15.

Each month will feature a work of the Laziza Electrique Dance Company in “The Colorama Series” designed and directed by Kathleen Laziza, founding artist of Micro Museum (MM®). Plus monthly guest musician, John LaMachia, collaborating with notable video maker and MM® co-founder William Laziza in a fresh new “Videoscopo” act at 8 PM, including dancers Samantha MacIvor, Jessica Desmond, and Jen Torriero.

Always innovative, Micro Museum is a thriving 20 year old living art center on Smith Street that was founded by William and Kathleen Laziza in 1986 as an incubator to prepare and present their formidable art production and repertory AKA “The Laziza Electrique Dance Company. They represent a pioneering interdisciplinary force collaborating with media and performance that launched public access TV nationwide circa 1970. To this day MM® operates a monthly public access TV program in Brooklyn on the local channels called SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION. Home to hundreds of working artists and students - MM® has achieved iconic status with journalist Trudy Whitman of Brooklyn Heights Press remarking “before Smith Street was Smith Street there was Micro Museum”. Open for professional use weekdays by appointment or to the general public on Saturdays from 12 – 7 PM. $2 per person. Plus special opening parties every month.

Festively, those who come dressed in the color of the monthly theme will receive a free gift! In addition there will be a popular vote throughout the entire series where a single artist from each color category will be invited back in Nov/Dec with a special rainbow celebration on November 3. On that occasion William and Kathleen Laziza will perform one of their signature performance works “MIXOLOGY”. They will continue to present MIXOLOGY on opening Saturdays at 7 PM until December 15.
