Soundies & Glitter Gulch
August 14, 2014 @ 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Soundies is based on a quintessential and universally recognized summer vibe–being young, out of school, bored, hot, and passing the time by zoning out in front of the TV. The exhibit features a living room-style installation facing a large projection that will run 8 music videos and a series of animated shorts on a continuous loop for the course of the 10-day exhibit. It’s a sweet, nostalgic homage to late 80s/90s MTV (an era in which the network help shape and define many cultural and musical tastes, memories, and teenage lives), as well as both a celebration and showcase of the music video as art.
Soundies includes:
Elephant Rifle – by Jeff Rogers
Spitting Image – by Omar Pierce
Alcest – by Tosha Palani
Inhibitor – by Kelci McIntosh / James Rogers
PWRHAUS – by Sean Pecknold
Cathedral Ghost – by Kyle Akins
Tea Haze – by Todd Hayes
My Flag is on Fire – by Charlie Hayes
Memory Motel – by Reno Sessions
+ animation interludes by Josh Freydkis
Glitter Gulch is an exhibition of photography from Kelci McIntosh. McIntosh celebrates a specific side of our fair city–often shot in casinos, on the street, local hole-in-the-walls, and at various events– and features them warmly in all their underground glitz and glory. This is also McInstosh’s farewell, as she moves to New Orleans post-exhibit.
Both exhibits run from August 12-22, with an Opening Reception on Thursday, August 14, 2014 from 6pm-8pm.
