Invoking LA, curated by Ben Maltz Gallery Curatorial Fellow Paige Tighe

Opening Reception: Saturday, June 30, 4-6pm
Gallery Talk with Curator and Artists: Tuesday, August 28, 12 pm

Invoking LA, curated by artist Paige Tighe, (‘10 Otis MFA Public Practice) presents the work of seven artists who use the fast-cut editing techniques and formats of reality TV shows, commercials, and music videos in an effort to summon the divine. The editing techniques aid in creating a sort of trance-like space, in which sound, color, and action become shamanistic acts, such as: chanting prayers, priestess dances, and rituals of undetermined origin.

Artists: Raul Paulino Baltazar (’09 OTIS Fine Arts, ’13 MFA Public Practice), Michael-Vincent Garcia (’10 OTIS Fine Arts), Mark X Farina, Bridget Kane (’12 OTIS MFA Fine Arts), Elena Rosa (’12 OTIS MFA Fine Arts), Signify, Sanctify, Believe: Claire Cronin, Adam Overton, and Tanya Rubbak, and Niko Solorio
