I AM Logan Square’s December Gallery Opening: Memento by dropshift
I AM Logan
Square is hitting off the month of December in partnership with dropshift dance
for their exhibit, Memento. Visual
artist Ashley Sullivan and dance film artist Nadia Oussenko worked together
with dropshift dance to do an exhibit that “explores themes of memory
distortion, perception, and recall, translated through the mediums of movement,
short film vignettes, and graphic screen print design as well as painting on
paper and canvas” as artistic director Andrea Cerniglia describes. Hence, this
collaboration gave birth to the name of the exhibit, Memento.
The opening
night of the exhibit is on Thursday, December 6th from 6pm to 9pm.
Performances will take place and consist of solo and couples dances. Our
gallery sponsors D’Noche and Beck’s will provide food and beer. If you haven’t
tried D’Noche’s scrumptious croquetas
and empanandas, this is your
opportunity all while experiencing a dance performance and great ambience with
fellow art lovers alike.
Pop-up
performances will take place throughout the month. Please check out the calendar
below and mark your calendar to come check us out!
You can also
come get a sneak peak this Saturday, Dec. 1st for Holiday on the
Square as the gallery will be open from 10:30am to 6:30pm for you to view the
visual art. A dance performance will take place from 1pm to 2pm.
About dropshift dance
dropshift
is an emerging
modern dance company led by artistic director Andrea Cerniglia, a member of the
Chicago dance scene since 2002. The group works through a rigorous process of
studio investigation to make work that energizes the space and creates an
environment for the performer and viewer. Using specific directives of quality,
imagery, and trajectory, dropshift creates movement environments that
allow the viewer an opportunity to connect with what is abstract by layering
the physical experience with one that is human and authentic.
