This week’s picks on what to see this weekend. As always, for more listings see here and here.
Ashley Hunt @ threewalls
Ashley Hunt is a researcher and artist whose practice has included documentary projects on the human elements within large government institutions, social movements, and political activity, particularly in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Her project, Note on The Emptying of a City is a multi-media deconstructed doc on New Orleans’ government’s refusal to empty the Parish Prison during the storm, and is happening this Friday, March 3rd at 7:00PM @ threewalls, 119 N Peoria St, 2C.
David Cordero and Elliot Layda @ DOVA Temporary
Artists David Cordero and Elliot Layda take on the transfixing intimacy problem known as the Hedgehog’s Dilemma, which describes life as a constant conflict between the human need to drawing others close to us and the human desire to impale them on our spines. Compare strategies this Friday, March 4th from 6-9PM @ DOVA Temporary, 5228 S Harper Ave.
Matt Austin @ Johalla Projects
Photographer Matt Austin debuts new road trip documentary photos which play off of the tropes and traditions of tourism photography. Stop by this Friday, March 4th from 7-10PM @ Johalla Projects, 1561 N Milwaukee Ave.
Chris Bradley @ Shane Campbell
Sculpture maker Chris Bradley is known for his static and kinetic sculptures built from materials I might have in my garage (including, now that I think of it, a functional garage door once installed at MVSEVM) if I had a garage. Check out the solo show Quiet Company this Saturday, March 5th from 6-8PM @ Shane Campbell Gallery‘s city location, 673 N Milwaukee Ave.
Just letting you know. No cover. I was sceptical. It is legit.
