SUMMARY:Telémachos Alexiou: The Culture of Refusal
DESCRIPTION:EXHIBITION HOURS\nThursday\, April 14\,  6-9pm\nFriday\, April 15\,  12-6pm and 8-11pm\nSaturday\, April 16\, 12-6pm \nSCREENING: Queen Antigone followed by conversation between Alexiou and Zackary Drucker\nFriday\, April 15\, 8-11pm \nTelémachos Alexiou is an artist whose medium is pictures. They can move as videos\, they might flicker as movies or just attempt to freeze a moment for a posterity they will never know – but they all share a power whose intentions aim straight for the heart and mind.\nIn his films – most notably “Queen Antigone” (Germany\, 2014)\, a road movie about contemporary Greece that is as political as it is personal in the way that only tragedies can be – a world of symbols and allusions clash with reality. Hostile to the lyricism of truth\, preferring to remain addicted to its own legends\, life becoming a teetering diva whose self-inflicted demise becomes a final act as necessary as it is unavoidable.\nThis need to reach catharsis\, to find closure\, to achieve conclusion is a constant theme in the work of Alexiou – no statements are left half-said\, everything and everyone has a defiant stance in the play of life and death: sex\, relationships\, emotions\, thought\, wants\, needs\, frustrations and happiness are all equal on a stage that dares you to ignore the spectacle.\nFull of bodies bearing witness\, his work is fiercely confrontational\, in both format and content – brutally direct video installations document the exuberant uniqueness of icons such as Vaginal Crème Davis or the artist and curator Dimitris Antonitsis; experimental in subject but crystal-clear in form photographs associate random visions that lurk between fetish and lyricism; texts violate the reader with ancient rage and contemporary seduction; everything about his visuals is meticulously meant to explode in the retina like a burst of a strong yet sophisticated mind-altering substance\, subtle in effect yet effective in distortion of consciousness.\nTelémachos Alexiou is a next generation artist\, discussing his temptation to exist beyond the sarcasm and idolatry that has been dominating the main discourses in the contemporary art world – he arrives with a declaration of belief whose self-definition is as defiant as the ancient culture his work is a part of.\nThe culture of refusal to compromise one’s freedom.  \nPanagiotis aka Otis Chatzistefanou (Mr.)\nEditorial Director for www.nakedbutsafe.com \n———————————————————– \nQueen Antigone\nTelémachos Alexiou’s second feature length film “Queen Antigone” is a sumptuously visualized allegory of the current\, dismal\, geopolitical situation of his fatherland. Framed in exquisitely aestheticized vignettes and fusing allusions that refract references from Sophocles to Gregory J. Markopoulos and from Michelangelo Antonioni to Jack Smith\, the scenario of this intense and stylish movie follows a disenfranchised young woman and her teenage brother as they desperately attempt to escape the double burden of historical inheritance and contemporary bankruptcy. An elegy about the spiritual breakdown of a nation\, the narrative resonates with barely contained rage\, unfolds at a meditative pace and ultimately ignites the screen with a volatile combination of existential emergency\, languid lyricism and spectacularly modern photography. \nABOUT THE ARTIST\nTelémachos Alexiou is a twenty-something filmmaker and artist who\, during his childhood and teens\, received formal ballroom dance training and won several national titles. At the age of 17\, he moved to London to study Communications and Visual Culture at the London Metropolitan University and three years later to Berlin\, where he studied Film Theory at the Freie Universität and started working as a filmmaker and artist. His diverse body of work includes narrative feature films\, media installations\, performance art and photography. Among other places\, his work has been hosted by the Berlin IFF\, the Thessaloniki IFF\, the Arsenal Institute for Film and Video Art in a mini-retrospective of his films\, the Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin\, the HAU Berlin\, the Los Angeles Outfest\, Queer Lisboa 16\, etc. \nApart from his own films\, Alexiou has worked with other filmmakers and artists\, including Bruce LaBruce\, Zackary Drucker and Vaginal Davis. \nQueen Antigone (2014)\nDirected by Telémachos Alexiou\nProduced by Jürgen Brüning & Telémachos Alexiou\n93 min. \nWith:\nAthena Mathiou\nKristof Lamp\nAlexandros Vardaxoglou\nGiorgos Makris\nAristotelis Varytimidis\nPanayotis Evangelidis\nKostas Alexiou\nPepi Tinoglou \nMusic: Sergei Rachmaninoff\nFILM TRAILER

SUMMARY:Chantal Akerman: Contre L'Oubli/Against Oblivion
DESCRIPTION:An evening of rare filmic treats\, a bar\, an accordionist\, a Yididish interlude\, and a reception to follow. Presented as part of Chantal Akerman: Contre L’Oubli/Against Oblivion\n– with a lecturette by film maker and programmer Courtney Stephens \nLE 15/08 (1973)\nSet in the wet heat and suspended time of a 15th of August (France’s main religious holiday in the summer\, literally everything stops)\, Chris\, a young woman from Finland has just arrived in Paris. Staying with a friend of Chantal Akerman\, she utters a long\, intimate monologue. She is filmed in static shots which monitor her unspoken anguish and idleness\, moving from one room to the next. The young woman\, through the repetition of empty and haunting daily gestures\, becomes a pure “existential” figure. \n42 mins \nBRUSSELS TRANSIT (1982\, Dir: Samy Szlingerbaum)\n“Brussels-Transit\,” which was produced by Chantal Akerman\, was the first Yiddish-language film made in Europe in 30 years. Written and directed by Samy Szlingerbaum (who co-directed 15/08)\, it is about his parents’ search for a home in the wake of World War II. It is an austere\, death-haunted work\, \, made all the more so by the knowledge that it would be Szlingerbaum’s only feature; he died of AIDS in 1986. (adapted from The Jewish Week)\nShort clip \nAGAINST OBLIVION (1991\, Dir: Chantal Akerman)\nA short piece commissioned by Amnesty International\, Against Oblivion (Contre l’oubli) is about the murder of Salvadorean union activist Febe Elisabeth Velásquez.\n3 mins \nPresented as part of: Chantal Akerman: Contre L’Oubli/Against Oblivion\, the retrospective organized throughout Los Angeles in collaboration with Los Angeles Filmforum\, Cinefamily\, Veggie Cloud\, Fahrenheit and Human Resources. Program organized in collaboration with Paradise Films and Cinémathèque royale de Belgique and presented with the support of the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and Institut Français\, and with the support of the Consulate General of the Kingdom of Belgium. \nAccordion accompaniment provided by Andy Favre!\nSpecial thanks to Kalyane aka La Collectionneuse!

SUMMARY:Everything Will Be: Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join Chinatown community members\, community stakeholders\, and Chinatown Community for Equitable Development (CCED) members for a movie screening of a film called “Everything Will Be”\, a film that presents stories of different community members in Vancouver Chinatown. After we watch the movie together\, we will have a discussion about similarities and differences between the stories shared in the movie to what we are seeing in Los Angeles Chinatown. We will continue a conversation about changes in Chinatowns across the country and specific changes we are seeing in Los Angeles Chinatown. Attendees will also have the opportunity to become more involved with CCED and get to know Chinatown better. We look forward to an engaging and fruitful conversation with people who care about Chinatowns across the U.S. and Canada. \n**Film will have Chinese and English subtitles when needed and the discussion will have Cantonese\, Mandarin\, Spanish interpretation**  \nAccessibility info: Human Resources’ front entrance has one step\, we have a folding wheelchair ramp. The side entrance is wheelchair accessible. There is not a wheelchair accessible restroom. Bathroom is gender neutral and has 2 stalls adjacent to each other. Non-scented soaps will be available.  \n**In order to help keep other attendees healthy\, and to avoid reactions to chemicals\, please refrain from wearing scented oils\, perfumes\, colognes\, scented soaps\, and scented clothes.***  \nThis feature documentary by Sundance award-winning director Julia Kwan captures the subtle nuances of a culturally diverse neighbourhood—Vancouver’s once-thriving Chinatown—in the midst of a transformation that plays out across many ethnic enclaves in North America. The community’s oldest and newest members offer their intimate perspectives on the shifting landscape as they reflect on change\, memory and legacy. Night and day\, a neon sign that reads “EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT” looms over Chinatown. Everything is going to be alright. The big question is—for whom?

SUMMARY:KCHUNG Presents: BRUJAJA
DESCRIPTION:KCHUNG presents BRUJAJA\, A Gathering of Witches \n“First\, there has been the desire to rethink the development of capitalism from a feminist viewpoim\, while\, at the same time\, avoiding the limits of a “women’s history” separated from that of the male part of the working class. The title\, Caliban and the Witch\, inspired by Shakespeare’s The Tempest\, reflects this effort. In my interpretation\, however\, Caliban represents not only the anti-colonial rebel whose struggle still resonates in contemporary Caribbean literature\, but is a symbol for the world proletariat and\, more specifically\, for the proletarian body as a terrain and instrument of resistance to the logic of capitalism. Most important\, the figure of the witch\, who in The Tempest is confined to a remote background\, in this volume is placed at the center-stage\, as the embodiment of a world of female subjects that capitalism had to destroy: the heretic\, the healer\, the disobedient wife\, the woman who dared to live alone\, the obeha woman who poisoned the master’s food and inspired the slaves to revolt.” – Silvia Federici\, Caliban and the Witch\, 2004  \nBRUJAJA celebrates the witch as a site for resistance and magick\, rebellion and healing.  \nWith performances by: Sarah Gail Armstrong\, Electric Sound Bath\, Rafa Esparza\, Glitzer\, MRK\, The Oracle of Los Angeles\, and vōx\, with KCHUNG DJS  \n*BRUJAJA is a part of KCHUNG Lounge artist in residence\, Christy Roberts Berkowitz’s: The Center for Strategic Magick and Healing Sh*t. March 18th – April 30th. Email ChristyRoberts.Art@gmail.com for a complete schedule of events. \nCapitalism Exorcism ritual performance. Photo by Nikki Darling.

SUMMARY:Ruth Angel Edwards "Derivatives and Futures"
DESCRIPTION:New AV works and a live performance in collaboration with Jos McKain \nOPENING RECEPTION + PERFORMANCE: March 17\, 8-10PM performance begins at 8:30PM \nGALLERY HOURS: March 17-21\, noon-6PM \n“I’d just like to point out that if anybody cares to look at the video evidence\, at no point was my bare backside revealed. So therefore the fact he says he’s seen it totally negates the credence of what he said in the previous part of the answer….I’m glad I’ve got that off my chest – it’s been bothering me\, that.” \nThe work simultaneously inhabits multiple time frames in dance music’s cultural past and present\, re-contextualising them as a way of exposing their failures and flaws as well as any latent positive potential\, exploring hedonism and spectacle in popular culture\, and the role it plays within capitalism. \nABOUT THE ARTIST\nRuth Angel Edwards is a multimedia artist currently living and working in the UK. She originates from Nottingham\, England\, and studied Fine Art at Central Saint Martins in London. Her work draws from pop culture – looking at mainstream and subcultural youth movements both past and present\, and within these\, the ways audio and visual content are used to manipulate an audience and to disseminate information.  \nMost recently her work has concentrated on dance subcultures from the late 1980s into the 90s and early 2000s\, and mainstream genres popular today such as EDM\, Dubstep and House. She examines lyrical and sonic qualities\, alongside the visual content\, including graphic design\, fashion and music videos\, reflecting on the trajectory of dance and rave music as an illustration of the changing politics of music subcultures\, both overt and concealed. Working between music\, sound\, moving image\, sculpture\, printed collage and online work\, subcultural and mainstream youth cultures are referenced\, appropriated and subverted\, creating sensual and disorientating environments. ‘Female’ physicality (body and voice) appear as a motif within the practice. Used to imply pleasure\, sensuality\, freedom\, spirituality\, love\, excess\, the mass produced sexualised female body has become a visual code for hedonism. Alongside this\, the work draws on and openly references ‘Techno Shamanism’\, a theory pioneered by new age philosophers such as Terrence McKenna in the late 80s\, most popular in the UK and Californian rave scenes. Techno Shamanism incorporated aspects of New Age and Environmentalist thinking\, and predicted that electronic music\, psychedelic drugs and new technologies such as the internet would be instrumental in bringing about radical changes in society\, entering a new era around the dawn of the millennium in 2000. ​

SUMMARY:CoH / Pinkcourtesyphone / Brandon Nickell / Cameron Shafii
DESCRIPTION:CoH (Sweden) (Ge-stell)\nhttp://www.post-pop.org/ \nCoH (Cyrillic) is a Russian sound artist\, based in Sweden\, who has been active since 1998. He has released numerous works on esteemed experimental labels like raster-noton\, Editions Mego\, Coil’s Eskaton\, and more. He is well-known for his collaborations with Cosey Fanni Tutti\, Coil\, among others. His works explore texture\, atmosphere\, and tone\, and his body of work is one of the strongest in the realm of experimental electronic music. On this tour\, he will be presenting works from his forthcoming EP ‘Return to Mechanics’ on Ge-stell. \n• Pinkcourtesyphone (Los Angeles) (LINE)\nhttp://www.pinkcourtesyphone.com/ \nRichard Chartier is considered one of the key figures in the current of reductionist sound art which has been termed both “microsound” and Neo-Modernist. Chartier’s minimalist digital work explores the inter-relationships between the spatial nature of sound\, silence\, focus\, perception and the act of listening itself. \nBut his Pinkcourtesyphone project is a more emotional\, dare one say musical side of his work. Pinkcourtesyphone is dark but not arch\, with a slight hint of humor. Pinkcourtesyphone is amorphous\, changing\, and slipping in and out of consciousness. Pinkcourtesyphone operates like a syrup-y dream and strives to be both elegant and detached. Pinkcourtesyphone has collaborated with Cosey Fanni Tutti\, Kid Congo Powers\, AGF\, Evelina Domnitch\, and Gwyneth Wentink. CoH even remixed his cover of ‘I am a photograph’ (by Amanda Lear) with Kid Congo Powers on vocals. Pinkcourtesyphone has released work on labels including LINE\, Important Records\, Room40\, and Dragon’s Eye Recordings. \n• Brandon Nickell (San Francisco) (Ge-stell)\nhttp://ge-stell.net/ \nBrandon Nickell hardly makes room for spaces between the threads\, for lines trickling towards gaps and fissures\, for non-hierarchical entry and exit. His Ge-stell debut ‘Skyline’ is marked by generative and hyper-concatenated rhythms\, placing angular\, yet ambient-tipped synthetic textures against deft beat programming. His productions oscillate between propulsive and percussive arrangements\, through events that do not link conclusively. He runs the Isounderscore label. \n• Cameron Shafii (San Francisco) (Ge-stell)\nhttp://ge-stell.net/ \nCameron Shafii is a San Francisco-based composer and computational linguist\, practicing generative and systems music. His compositions are inflected by software processing based on recombination\, autonomous file handling\, and approximate string matching algorithms. He runs the Ge-stell label.

SUMMARY:This Unwieldy Object: A Modern Research Drama by Anna Zett
DESCRIPTION:The screening of the 47 minute film will be followed by a Q&A with the director and the curator. \n5:30pm doors open\n6pm film starts  \nOrganized by Clara López Menéndez with HRLA \nTHIS UNWIELDY OBJECT\nA MODERN RESEARCH DRAMA BY ANNA ZETT 2014\, 47 min \nIn the trans-genre film “This Unwieldy Object” the animated dinosaurs of Hollywood cinema meet the petrified ghosts of colonial science. You follow the protagonist on a road trip into the dusty heart of the USA\, where fossil traders\, sculptors and scientists are trying to reconstruct the plot of natural history\, the plot of progress. But the more experts she encounters\, the more unwieldy their objects of research appear. Dig sites become crime scenes\, and fossils turn into characters\, determined to play a main part in the violent history of the American Frontier. The story ends in the middle. \nAbout the filmmaker:\nAnna Zett is an artist with a background in theory\, now working across the disciplines of video\, radio\, drama and dance. Playfully engaged with the tragedy of science & technology\, her practice tries to rely on physical vulnerability as much as it relies on historical inquiry and an experimental setup. Recent screenings and exhibtions at Serpentine Cinema London\, National Gallery Prague\, Transmission Gallery Glasgow\, Sorbus Gallery Helsinki\, Banner Repeater London\, TENT Rotterdam. Beyond the visual arts Anna Zett has written and co-directed a radio play for the public radio in Germany last year\, published essays online and offline\, and is co-hosting a dance show called Copy&Dance\, based at HAU2 Berlin.

SUMMARY:Postcommodity / White Boy Scream / Carmina Escobar
DESCRIPTION:Postcommodity\nhttp://postcommodity.com/\nhttps://postcommodity.bandcamp.com/ \nPostcommodity is an interdisciplinary arts collective comprised of Raven Chacon\, Cristóbal Martínez\, and Kade L. Twist. Postcommodity’s art functions as a shared Indigenous lens and voice to engage the assaultive manifestations of the global market and its supporting institutions\, public perceptions\, beliefs\, and individual actions that comprise the ever-expanding\, multinational\, multiracial and multiethnic colonizing force that is defining the 21st Century through ever increasing velocities and complex forms of violence. Postcommodity works to forge new metaphors capable of rationalizing our shared experiences within this increasingly challenging contemporary environment; promote a constructive discourse that challenges the social\, political and economic processes that are destabilizing communities and geographies; and connect Indigenous narratives of cultural self-determination with the broader public sphere. \nWhite Boy Scream\nhttp://www.micaelatobin.com/wbs \nWhite Boy Scream is a solo experimental-music project that dissects the operatic qualities of the voice through a series of electronic effects pedals and looping stations. Micaela Tobin aims to dismantle and ultimately\, reconcile\, the construct of the classically-trained soprano within the genres of noise and drone. \nCarmina Escobar\nhttp://carminaescobar.com/ \n“I am an experimental vocalist\, performer\, improviser\, sound and intermedia artist from Mexico City. My work focuses primarily on the voice\, the body and their interrelations to physical\, social and memory spaces. At the moment I live and breath in Los Angeles\, CA.”

SUMMARY:QUEER POP
DESCRIPTION:Sophia Cleary + Bradford Nordeen assemble a coterie of luminary queers for this one-off night of dance\, drama and dissonance. Rending pop from its staid axis with underground sounds and outré styles\, Queer Pop brings together an international roster of musicians and performers: \nMacy Rodman (NYC) \nXina Xurner (LA) \nPRICE (Switzerland) \nTMO (LA) \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nMacy Rodman is a NYC based recording artist and producer whose debut EP “HELP” was released in February 2016.  Macy’s work contains elements of Pop\, Punk\, and Dance/Electronic music and deals with such topics as nightlife\, misandry\, and her trans experience.  In 2015\, Macy released “Lazy Girl” as the first single from “HELP” along with a video directed by Josef Kraska featuring an all trans and gender non-conforming cast.  Lazy Girl has been featured in Vice\, Original Plumbing and Bullet Media and was featured in a spread for ArtForum Magazine in which avant garde pop producer Sophie named Macy as one of his favorites acts of 2015.  Rodman got her start as producer and curator of the notorious queer performance party “BathSalts”\, and frequently collaborates with performance artists and musicians like QT\, Colin Self\, Jake Dibeler\, JX Cannon\, and Cecilia Corrigan.  \nXina Xurner is a music and performance collaboration between LA-based artists Marvin Astorga and Young Joon Kwak. Xina Xurner melds together a variety of musical genres (including industrial\, happy hardcore\, punk\, house\, noise)\, to create sadical and exuberant diva-dance anthems driven by sweat\, sex\, death\, and transformation. Their performances seek to embody a unique form of drag terrorism that brings together Queer People of Color communities\, while expanding the limits of understanding queer bodies beyond the fixed terms of gender and sexuality. Xina Xurner regularly performs at a wide variety of spaces throughout LA\, including live music venues such as The Smell and Pehrspace\, Queer parties such as Coolworld and Mustache Mondays\, and art spaces and museums such as the Hammer Museum\, Night Gallery\, and LACE. Xina Xurner will make you sweat. \nxinaxurner.com \nxinaxurner.bandcamp.com \nMathias Ringgenberg (born 1986 in Zurich) finished 2015 the master theater & performing arts at the College of the arts Bern in Switzerland. In his current performative works called\, “Can not say much about anything that’s new” and the associated debut album “Greatest Hits” or its video performances “A: I am impressed B: Well – I am in love” or “Home is a place we all have to find”\, Mathias developed the fictional character PRICE. In this project\, he investigated mechanisms of mainstream pop while attempting the potential of musical and performative formats to explore. The forms of his work are mutating through their showrooms or clubs and can be experienced always differently. His works are musical and performative situations which deal with the topics of ‘love’\, ‘faith’\, ‘desire’ and ‘sex’. He uses the language of pop culture\, which embodies the language of folk culture\, the masses\, society and globalisation. This aesthetic he brings in connection with sociological issues such as the issue of transparency society of self-expression urge\, the language as the house of being and how PRICE would say his homeless Generation Y. \nCalled an “interdisciplinary gospel immortalist” by Kembra Pfahler of the Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black\, Tyler Matthew Oyer is an artist\, writer\, and organizer based in Los Angeles. He has presented work at MoMA PS1\, REDCAT\, dOCUMENTA (13)\, Hammer Museum\, Kunstnernes Hus Oslo\, Art Basel Miami Beach\, Bergen Kunstall\, Rogaland Kunstsenter\, The Royal Vauxhall Tavern\, High Desert Test Sites\, Highways Performance Space\, Human Resources LA and the Orange County Museum of Art. He has written works of performance including GONE FOR GOLD\, Shimmy Shake Earthquake\, and 100 Years of Noise: Beyoncé is ready to receive you now. Oyer is represented by Cirrus Gallery and his work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (NY). Oyer is the founder of tir journal\, an online platform for queer\, feminist\, and underrepresented voices. He received an MFA from the California Institute of the Arts in 2012. He is currently working on his first movie\, Conquest of the Universe or When Queens Collide. TMOSTUDIO.COM

SUMMARY:(Same) / Folklords / Lone Wolf
DESCRIPTION:A very rare chance to see some very deep and free musicians together under one roof. \nJason Ajemian’s Folk-Lords is the sound of an outstanding group of New York improvisors performing six conceptual\, visual & sonic landscapes. Meditative Mingus ballads\, imaginary conversations between Sun Ra & Thelonious Monk\, poetic takes on pop culture\, and an elegy for Malachi Rischter are transmitted via Ajemian’s unique notational methodology. Folk-Lords defies genre with an adhesiveness that expands on the creative music tradition through a social/cultural lens of now. \nRyan Sawyer (Lone Wolf) plays drum kit and sings. He is probably best known for his collaborations with other high profile improvisational performers (Trio with Nate Wooley / C. Spencer Yeh\, Trio with Thurston Moore / Daniel Carter\, Trio with Colin Steston / Shahzad Ismaily\, Duo with Tunde Adebimpe\, Duo with Matana Roberts\, Duo with Darius Jones\, and so forth)\, or as a key member to various groups he has played with throughout his prolific and fruitful career (At The Drive-In\, Boredoms\, Stars Like Fleas\, Tall Firs\, Glass Rock\, Family Dynamics\, Eye Contact). However\, his live set simply has to be witnessed to be really understood. \n(Same) is a site-specific\, performance based duo comprised of Butchy Fuego and Jeremiah Chiu. Both have backgrounds as musicians and artists. The collaboration is equal parts visual art and experimental live band. (Same) began through a series of performances by the Seeing Trails Hike Gang\, Division of Fine Art (DFA) in October\, 2015 at High Desert Test Sites: Epicenter. The performance\, Doppler at High Noon\, took place on the tarmac of Green River Municipal Airport. The performers accelerated up to 50mph\, strapped to the back of two pickup trucks\, crossing past the audience. Their second performance\, at The Getty Center\, was a visual music work\, synthesizing instruments and improvisation as an abstract digital painting. (Same) continues to collect their multi-faceted interests into hybrid works of art\, presenting audiences with new expressions of contemporary art and music.

SUMMARY:Martine Syms "Black Box"
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception Saturday February 6\, 7-10pm \nOn View February 6 – 27\, Wednesday thru Sunday 12-6pm or by appointment \nBlack Box is an exhibition of sixty new and recent videos by Martine Syms. These works are part of a long\, incomplete poem in 180 sections titled Lessons. Each lesson is exactly thirty seconds in duration. \n“Syms simulates flipping through television channels\, repurposing advertisements and listings culled from TV Guide. The flickering\, repetitive sensation of moving from one neatly contained narrative to the next creates a glut of signifiers through which to wade. The edges of visual memory become less resolute and are subject to confusion and total collapse. The televisual presents a multiplicity of entries and departures\, which Syms puts in the service of defining possibilities for a culturally specific aesthetic tradition. That definition\, however\, remains assertively porous.” — Ayesha B. Jones \nMartine Syms is an artist based in Los Angeles\, born 1988. She is the founder of Dominica\, a publishing imprint dedicated to exploring blackness in visual culture. Her artwork has been exhibited and screened extensively\, including presentations at the New Museum\, The Studio Museum in Harlem\, Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles\, MCA Chicago\, Green Gallery\, Gene Siskel Film Centre\, and White Flag Projects. She has lectured at Yale University\, SXSW\, California Institute of the Arts\, University of Chicago\, Johns Hopkins University\, and MoMA PS1\, among other venues. Syms’ recently presented the exhibition Vertical Elevated Oblique at Bridget Donahue Gallery\, New York. Forthcoming exhibitions include Electronic Superhighway 2016-1966\, Whitechapel Gallery\, London and COM PORT MENT at Karma International\, Los Angeles.
