Armory Show 2005: Max Henry with Malachi Farrell
Host Max allows the talented and perpetually sparking Mr. Farrell free range of the coffee bar, MP3 player and assorted props and documents resulting in a centrifugal and vertiginous discussion/oration.

Malachi Farrell is an installation artist who lives and works in Paris and New York. His work often incorporates mechanical and computer-assisted devices in tandem with strong political or social imagery and objects. Comparisons with Tingueley are common. He was born in 1970 in Ireland and raised in Paris. His most recent installation tableau - an automated and astoundingly cluttered sweatshop inhabited by spirits - appears in a racy exhibit of "l'art trash" called Dyonisiac at the Centre Pompidou in Paris (through 9 May 05).

Max Henry is an independent curator and art critic. He writes for Time Out New York, Modern Painters, Art in America, and Artnet. He is currently working on a November show for Apex Art in New York. He is art editor of The Paris Review.
