Event: The Infinity Lab presents "Nine Transient Things"

Place: Voz Alta Project, 1754 National Avenue, Barrio Logan, CA 92113
THE INFINITY LAB GOES CRAYO-LOCO©
The Infinity Lab gets extravagant in their new exhibit, "Nine Transient Things." After reflecting upon the recent avant-garde art terms "un-monumental" and "Altermodernism," the infinitists take low-tech to the next level by creating nine 3' square drawings of their performance gear using only Crayola® crayons as materials. In the tradition of the late 10th-century Byzantine religious works, the subject matter could be considered The Infinity Icons or The Infinity Relics, but instead the doctors irreverently add whimsical intonations to the latest contemporary art aesthetics by calling them: "Nine Transient Things".
During the opening and closing receptions, DJ Dan Camacho will mix soundscapes on three turntables. Also on display is a top-secret installation of a new "Blue Chip [artist] Special."
Closing Reception: Saturday, May 16, 2009 from 7pm -11pm
Exhibit dates: May 2-May 16th.
