[Nettime-bold] Search Engine: Greg Sholette |
On Sunday, June 11 Greg Sholette of REPOhistory will kick-off SEARCH ENGINE, a new series of occasional artist talks and demos hosted by NOMADS <http://www.nomadnet.org>. Sholette's presentation entitled "REPOhistory: Anatomy of an Urban Art Project" will take place at 7:00 pm at the District of Columbia Art Center (DCAC), 2438 18th Street, NW in the Adams-Morgan neighborhood of Washington, DC. He will discuss CIRCULATION, REPOhistoryıs current public art and web-based project, as well as aspects of the collectiveıs past work. REPOhistory <http://www.repohistory.org> is a decade old interdisciplinary art collective based in NYC which develops public art projects with strong, alternative social commentary. The collective has launched projects in NYC, Atlanta and Houston which retrieve and relocate absent historical narratives through counter-monuments, signage, actions, and events. CIRCULATION, REPOhistoryıs most recent project, involves over 30 artists creating public art objects -post cards, magnets, stickers, zines -that "circulate" throughout the city, and a series of web-based projects that flow through cyberspace, all exploring the social, aesthetic and economic history of human blood. DCAC is accessible via the number 42 Bus and the Woodley Park/Zoo-Adams Morgan metro station. A commercial parking lot is available at 18th Street and Belmont Road. A $2.00 donation is requested at the door. The event is free for DCAC members. For more information contact <nomads@nomadnet.org>. NOMADS thanks the District of Columbia Arts Center <http://www.dcartscenter.org> for their generous support of this event. -- Laura McGough Co-Director, NOMADS www.nomadnet.org _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list Nettime-bold@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
