This Wednesday, November 3, instead of screening a film we will be meeting downstairs in Gallery 400 for the opening reception for their most recent show- Steve Reinke : The Tiny Ventriloquist. The show features video and sculpture work by former UIC professor Steve Reinke and his frequent collaborators.
Info from Gallery 400—-
With endearing wit, Chicago-based, Canadian-born Steve Reinke makes work in a mock confessional mode about sex, death, and whatever comes between sex and death. This exhibition premieres a new suite of videos, The Tiny Ventriloquist, commissioned by Gallery 400, as well as works in various other media: drawing, needlepoint, etc. New and recent collaborative videos are also featured alongside solo works by the collaborators: Dani Leventhal, John Marriott, Jessie Mott, and James Richards. The exhibition is accompanied by the upcoming publication of Reinke’s book The Shimmering Beast.
The reception is happening from 5pm to 8pm on the first floor of The Art and Design Hall. If you like the video work check out Steve’s lecture Thursday, Nov 18th! Everything is free and open to the public.
See ya there!
