24 hrs
BRUNSWICK WINDOW
presents “Katherine Behar: High Hopes.” Behar’s work explores excessive and gendered forms of productivity and work in gadget-saturated contemporary life. In High Hopes, an unattended Roomba fastidiously cleans a carpet while balancing a rubber tree plant strapped to its back. It tries against all odds to “move that rubber tree plant,” all while pulling at a speckless rug.

24 hrs
BRUNSWICK WALL 
presents “Connor Stankard: They Tell You It’s Something You’ll Miss.” This work shows haunting images of men who have harassed Stankard and her peers over the last year. The menacing size of the images and resulting blur implore the viewer to step away from the looming face (not unlike a natural response to harassment) while preserving some anonymity.
159 Brunswick St (at 4th St), 201-978-8939.
