Irvine Contemporary and Project 4 Gallery have opening receptions this Saturday night. Challenge reality — and the realm of possibility — with a visit to each.
“Dataklysmos,” opening this Saturday at Irvine Contemporary, is an exhibition of new multimedia sculptures that show the world of data and the materiality of digital technology in new ways. The implication of the Brooklyn artist’s name [dNASAb] — “Disney-NASA-Borg” — is only the tip of the ice berg.
“Liminal Light” at Project 4 features artists who “explore various means of representing reality and the boundaries beyond, bringing the viewer to the visual realm of the sublime. Using graphite, India ink, smoke, and photo collage the artists exploit the duality between black and white to reveal the spectrum of infinite shades of gray.”
Also, it’s closing weekend for exhibitions at three local galleries:
- “Nicholas & Sheila Pye: Amend” closes Saturday, April 30, at the Curator’s Office on 14th Street NW.
- “The Polaroid Retrospective II” closes Saturday, April 30, at Lamont Bishop Gallery on 9th Street NW.
- “REVIVE” closes Sunday, May 1, at Long View Gallery on 9th Street NW.
