L.A. Machine Happens in St. Louis: The Contemporary Art Museum
Posted by admin on October 1, 2009 · Leave a Comment
The Contemporary kicks off April with a group of artists for the Machine Project. We can expect performance/installation art, a potpourri of happenings and probably big crowds.
Los Angeles-based artist Emily Lacy will be working with ideas of physical auditory signal and temporal delay and will create a wellspring of musical environments. Drawing on folk and electric influences, Lacy produces soundscapes that engage the image of “the musician” as it occurs and recurs throughout mythological history and folklore.
Some may go to the museum looking for some art, but expect the unexpected, there’s something for everybody–technology, natural history, and literature. Add in music and food–and whoopee, these events will likely be gate-crashing blockbusters.
Saturday, April 3 features sauerkraut and kimchi. Throw in some folk-singing, banjo-playing and a raffle to win a Musical Trip to the Dentist.
After posting those taxes on April 15th go have hot dogs, sausages, and beer at the museum. Yes, art museums are no longer stuffy places just for looking at things.
Jot down on a calendar the dates March 31 – April 18 and go get smash-up details here.
