In the eye of Fouhse: “Be careful of what you say when visiting the new exhibition, Without a Passport, at Karsh-Masson Gallery. Kenneth Emig has placed hidden microphones around the two floors of the Byward Market gallery. On the first floor, there is a large satellite dish suspended from one wall. Place your ear close to the dish and you can hear the conversations of people in faraway corners of the gallery.Emig’s work is called Listening. It is frighteningly Orwellian and quite suitable for an exhibition about all the Big Brothers at airports, immigration offices and other venues designed to inhibit the flow of people around the globe in this terrorized, post 9/11 world.”

Ken’s a buddy of 30 years, and a collaborator on various stuff.
