Saul Melman's GATHERINGS (Performed at 4:00 PM EST) is a performance that explores the substance of time and how it reveals itself within our frame of perception. Through a sequence of repeated actions that expand inside the chronological container of five minutes, GATHERINGS reshapes measured time by the force of intervention.

Saul received an Emerging Artist Fellowship from Socrates Sculpture Park and will exhibit a new installation at the park in 2011-2012.
