Opening Reception
Friday, November 15, 5-8 pm
Harbor Art Gallery
If you can't make it to the reception, the show runs from November 15 - December 13. You can drop by anytime during gallery hours, which are Mon-Thurs, 1-7 PM.
Color Theory is the only video piece in the show, so we're very excited to see all the other works in all different media. Here is a list of the artists in the show: Genesis Báez, Molly Blumberg, Lindsay Chapin, Charles Crowell, Leeann Davignon, Corey Dunlap, Jillian Germaine Freyer, Nate Grossman, Suzi Grossman, Shana Harden, Lauren Hayes, Duy Hoang, Daniel Roth, Eileen Ryan, Minhae Shim, Olivia Stanislas, Jessica Tawczynski, and Caterina Urrata.
Danny and I recently screened our film at the Boston Asian American Film Festival, so we've been moving between several types of exhibition spaces recently. This is Color Theory's second gallery exhibition. We were also in the 10,001 hrs gallery exhibition in May 2013. I love producing work that can fit into both art contexts and film contexts. The film world and the art world are very different -- there are quite different values, etiquette and audiences for each. Interestingly, both worlds curate the moving image, but each treats film/video (especially genre-bending types of works) with a different tongue and demeanor. The language of critique is different, the attitude about the works is different.
For those who have not seen Color Theory at all, or have already seen the piece in a theater, feel free to visit the Harbor Art Gallery to see the film in a different venue. I'm personally going to compare and contrast my experience. How is showing a short film in a gallery different from showing it in a theatrical/festival setting?
And come see the show to support the arts in Boston! For more information, please contact the Harbor Art Gallery.
