Banquet of the Black Jackal

If you're in LA, check this show out.  Haven't seen yet, but some of my writing is in the catalogue, the group of artists is terrific, and the title is pretty sharp.  (Will be contributing to another thing Adam is doing soon as well.)

BANQUET OF THE BLACK JACKAL

What happens when mankind ends? How will history, cultural objects, and relationships between the elements be remembered or reinterpreted? The artists in this exhibition tackle the notion of history—be it personal, cultural or philosophic—in their multimedia installations. The questions at play in this exhibition are informed by the writings of Hegelian philosopher Alexandre Kojève and contemporary science fiction.

Participating artists: Eduardo Consuegra, Adam D. Miller, Ruby Neri, Devon Oder, Amanda Ross-Ho, Liz Craft, Shio Kusaka, and Matthew Greene

The opening reception for Banquet of the Black Jackal will be from 6-8pm on Saturday, January 22.
