Illiterate Opening This Friday: Down With The Sickness Too
Down With The Sickness Too infects Illiterate with a group of Denver's leading up-and-coming art misfits. Curated in conjunction with Travis Egedy, one of the founders and residents of Rhinoceropolis, a DIY breeding ground for radical young artists, this exhibit captures a unique segment of Denver's progressive cultural landscape.
Including works in various media, the exhibition explores cohesion in chaos. The follow up exhibit to the Down With The Sickness show over a year ago, artists associated in various ways with a creative epicenter on the edge, express their transgressive reactions to the current order seen as contaminated and polluting, while simultaneously sharing in a collective vision of a mystical future of their own creation.
As Travis Egedy puts it,
"the 'sickness' has multiple dimensions. could the sickness be a viral spreading of new awareness and higher vibrational consciousness? if so, we are 'down' with it. or could the 'sickness' be the very sickness that is plaguing and polluting our minds and our earth? the very sickness that forces you to go to work in the morning, blackens our oceans, the very sickness that cloaks itself as the real? if so, down with the sickness!"
Are you part of the cure or the disease? Find out on August 6, 2010 when the Down With The Sickness exhibit opens at Illiterate.
