DRIFTING WITH MACAU BEER...after just blogging about the Suicide Girls trendy Video iPod downloads, my client Ted O'Connor president, Brooklyn, NY based Aladdin Beverage, importers of Macau Beer tells me about another trendy event Macau Beer is sponsoring at Gigantic Artspace in New York city. http://www.giganticartspace.com/current.html
DRIFT, a collaboration between musician/poet Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth and visual artist Leah Singer. This exhibition features a one-hour installation version of DRIFT, an immersive sonic/visual environment consisting of music, sounds, and texts by Ranaldo in response to Singer’s dual projection 16mm analytical film system. The exhibition also includes collaborative and individual works on paper, films, and sound works. DRIFT has been performed live in museums, galleries, concert halls and performing arts centers worldwide since 1991, most recently at the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art as part of the Robert Smithson retrospective. A DVD and 112-page, full-color book, published by Gigantic ArtSpace [GAS], will be released by Plexifilm in November 2005. Lee Ranaldo is an original member of the group Sonic Youth, formed in 1981 in New York City. Recent solo recordings include Music for Stage and Screen. and Text of Light. His books include Lengths & Breaths, Jrnls80s, and Road Movies. Visual works from the HWY SONG series, made from deconstructed acoustic guitars, have been shown at the Hayward Gallery, London, The Sydney Musuem of Contemporary Art, and the Vienna Kunsthalle.
