PsycheDADA

///September 16th - October 21, 2011 Opening Reception: September 16 at 8 PM

Psychedada brings together artists whose practices contend with the anomalies and oddities of chance at play in creative consciousness. Arthur Desmarteaux & Allison Moore (Montréal, QC), Larry Carlson (New York, NY) Arthur Desmarteaux and Allison Moore present brilliantly coloured and image dense serigraphs, prints, collages and puppet shows, creating a heady mix of Rabelaisian excess and underground comic trippyness. Carlson's videos are a high speed jump cut leap into a vertiginous Technicolour information overload, animated realizations of the mind bending juxtapositions of his collage work. Larry Carlson's website is here.

Psychedada is a collaborative curatorial project by Tod Emel (AKA) and David LaRivierre (PAVED Arts).
