S.A.C. artist talk, featuring kanarinka and Dirk Adams
The Center for Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA | Get Directions »
$5.00
The Somerville Arts Council presents our new series, Somerville Salon, in which SAC board members curate presentations and lead discussions around various themes. The October salon was a great success and we're now looking ahead to the Nov. 16th salon.
Our next salon discussion will showcase the conceptual art of Boston's kanarinka (a.k.a. Catherine D'Ignazio) and Somerville's Dirk Adams. For the past ten years, kanarinka has created multimedia art works that examine how people use and understand public space. These works involve audience participation, and often take place outside. Public space and participation figures into much of Adams' work, as well. Participants in his sound walks listen to audio narratives and instructions while exploring public space.
Join kanarinka and Adams as they talk about their past projects--and what led them to use the streets as their canvases.
Wed., Nov. 16th, 7:30 pm; Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave.; suggested $5 donation.
Organized by Tim Devin

More About The Center for Arts at the Armory
In 2009, this nonprofit arts organization moved into the freshly renovated Armory Building on Highland Ave. Conceived as space that would "galvanize the creative spirit," they set up studio and live/work space for artists, as well as two galleries and two performance areas: a more intimate café and a larger hall. Concerts, film screenings and happenings like their fall Harvest Fest fill most of the performance calendar. Spoken word, theater and comedy can also be seen here.
