While Stan Brakhage opted against the use of sound in his films, tonight at Cinefamily LA, Lee Ranaldo will provide a live musical performance to their screening of the beautiful Text of Light—not as a score, but as a foregrounding for a “further element for improvisation”.

Joining him will be saxophonist Ulrich Krieger and guitarist Alan Licht, collaborating in a kind of “mixed-media collage”. You can see a recording of a past performance they’ve done here.

We can’t tell you how excited we are for the 01 Magazine group show happening at 107 Shaw this week. We’re big fans of 01, and have long wanted to attend their impressive group photography shows.

The huge roster of artists involved includes Peter Sutherland, Bree Apperley, Jessica Eaton, Leo Fitzpatrick, Niall McLelland, Nicholas Gottland, Coley Brown, Mel Paget—it’s crazy. The opening is March 11th, starting at 7pm.

Looking forward to a Ryan Trecartin screening of his 2009 Trill-ogy Comp series, Sibling Topics, K-Corea INC.K and P.opular S.ky, tomorrow, Tuesday March 9th, at Double Double Land. It’s $5 and starts at 8pm.

Opening tonight at Clint Roenisch is emerging artist Hugh Scott Douglas’ thesis exhibit An Invitation to Lubberland. The show, which runs only till Saturday, is an ode to boredom and laziness and revolves around craft techniques like potato-stamping (shown above).
