IfNF presents: Felt Book

January 30 - March 27, 2015

The Institute for New Feeling (IfNf) is an art collective dedicated to the development of new ways of feeling, and ways of feeling new. IfNf creates artwork in the form of treatments, therapies, retreats, research studies and products that play with the corporate manipulation of human desire. 

Through the SPACES R&D program, IfNf will curate an exhibition of works from their upcoming online collaboration, Felt Book. This publication is a collection of home remedies inspired by the structure of Fluxus scores, YouTube tutorials and eHow articles. Felt Book spans 40+ artists and encompasses works that are as minimal as one sentence, in addition to video, interactive, and sculptural formats.

IfNf will also create a private meditation room, allowing participants to select an audio-visual treatment to experience alone. During the opening reception at SPACES, IfNf will host a performative launch party, including a reading of treatments from their online publication, a video screening, and performances by Felt Book artists.

Visitors are invited to sign up for the free eFelt subscription service to receive product samples in the gallery, as well as a weekly remedy by email. Sign up for the email here.
