Tonight: Dynamo + Johnny Burgess-Towards a New Rubicon

Redia Soltis — Thu, 16 May 2013 23:26:56 +0000

New work by artist Johnny Burgess opens at Dynamo tonight.

Dynamo Arts Association is pleased to present ‘Towards a New Rubicon’, an exhibition of new works by John Burgess. ‘Towards a New Rubicon’ is a body of work that examines a collision between material scarcity and overabundance in the construction of objects. Burgess’ self-reflexive vision of patterns falling apart in contemporary building practices and production creates space for a new way of understanding architecture and urban development. John Burgess has been shown in Australia, the United States, and Canada since graduating from Emily Carr University of Art and Design in 2009.

Tonight at Monte Clark: Roy Arden- Modern Times

Redia Soltis — Thu, 09 May 2013 16:17:41 +0000

New work by Vancouver based artist Roy Arden opens tonight at Monte Clark Gallery... (Roy Arden, Still From Jalopy, 2011 Courtesy of Monte Clark Gallery) MODERN TIMES MAY 9 - JUNE 8, 2013 Monte Clark Gallery is pleased to present Modern Times, an exhibition of recent works by Roy Arden. An ensemble of paintings, video and assemblage, the works all reference the material aspects of modernity. Arden uses found objects and images as his starting point for depictions of the arrival of steam power and the internal combustion engine, plumbing, and a multitude of new conveyances: trains, cars, planes, motorised ships, and more. Together these works echo the cataclysmic changes of early modernity and the traumas they induced, traumas that we are still working to understand in life and art. Roy Arden's work can be found in numerous public collections in North America and Europe, including The National Gallery of Canada, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, New York, The Centre Pompidou, Paris, The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, and the Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart. He has exhibited in dozens of international exhibitions from New York to Sharjah, and Berlin to Sydney. In 2007 the Vancouver Art Gallery mounted a survey show of his work covering the period 1981-2007. In 2013, Arden will exhibit in Damage Control: Art and Destruction Since 1950 at the Hirschhorn Museum in Washington D.C.

RIP Jeff Hanneman

Caine Heintzman — Fri, 03 May 2013 04:06:41 +0000

Yesterday, thrash metal gods Slayer posted an open letter to fans regarding the ill health of guitarist Jeff Hanneman, who suffered a spider bite last year that eventually left him in a medically induced coma, from which he was slowly recovering. Sadly, today, Hanneman passed away at age 49 of liver failure. The band’s publicist issued the following statement: Slayer is devastated to inform that their bandmate and brother, Jeff Hanneman, passed away at about 11AM this morning near his Southern California home. He was 49. Hanneman was in an area hospital when he suffered liver failure. He is survived by his wife Kathy, his sister Kathy and his brothers Michael and Larry, and will be sorely missed. It’s no exaggeration to say that Slayer are one of the most important bands in the history of metal if not American rock music, period. They were also one of the few metal bands to remain vital well into middle age. The loss of Hanneman is a significant one. Just terrible, sad news. RIP.

Video: The Karen Carpenter Story(1987)

Redia Soltis — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 16:57:37 +0000

Experimental filmmaker Todd Haynes burst upon the scene two years after his graduation from Brown University with his now-infamous 43-minute cult treasure "Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story" (1987). Seizing upon the inspired gimmick of using Barbie and Ken dolls to sympathetically recount the story of the pop star's death from anorexia, he spent months making miniature dishes, chairs, costumes, Kleenex and Ex-Lax boxes, and Carpenters' records to create the film's intricate, doll-size mise-en-scene. The result was both audacious and accomplished as the dolls seemingly ceased to be dolls leaving the audience weeping for the tragic singer.
