The Wheel (2010)

A portion of Greber's multi-channel installation The Fool, The Hierophant, The Devil and the Wheel, shown at Madame John's Legacy as part of Prospect 1.5 New Orleans. Four fever-dream-colored channels conflate two systems concerned with the unspooling of destiny: tarot and the game show "Deal or No Deal." The Devil appears as a flame-eyed cat whose purr is picked up by a clutch of telephones; the mystery suitcase opens to reveal not treasure but glowing, toxic-looking fruit.
