Saturday November 4, 2006:
I’m sure the night will be full of all kinds of funs and joys and sorrows all over the world.
Personally I’m looking forward to these 2:
Aya Kakeda was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan and now works and lives in Brooklyn, NY. Aya has been creating whimsical narratives in her dreamy style since 2001 and has worked in almost every medium under the sun including illustration, screenprinting, painting and digital media. Her work has been spotted in print media such as Bust, Chicago Magazine, The New Yorker Magazine and The New York Times and has been used by Nickelodeon/Noggin TV. For “Go Go Monster” Aya brings her lightheartedly cute yet twisted characters out for a fun romp with the monsters.
Tyson Bodnarchuk hails from the blustery prairie city of Winnipeg, MB, having repositioned homebase to Montreal, QC in 2003. Tyson has been showing his paintings of creatures, robots, strange humans and the worlds they inhabit since 2000. For “Go Go Monster” Tyson has put aside his recognizable acrylic/resin medium and moves into an ethereal and strange take on watercolour. Tysons work can be found in Montreal at Headquarters Galerie & Boutique (www.HQgalerieboutique.com), L’Autre Galerie (www.lautregalerie.com) and SubV Galerie
Almost completely irrelevant fun fact: i wrote my masters thesis on some of the lesser known works of Innis as applied to open source software! So that’s me on the geek scale, I guess. How about you- where do you think you might be tommorrow night? Somewhere awesome? What do you recommend?
Tonight is cheapskate drinks and even cheaper snacks at cine-express across from the croissanterie on ste. catherine.
tomorrow is hot chip at sala rossa!! this show is gonna rule. i hope it hasn’t sold out…
