False Histories
Friday January 15th, 2016
7pm Doors, 7:30 show [real time not punk time]
Pay What You Can [$8 suggested donation]
Buntport Theater [717 N Lipan Street, Denver]
In a time when information about the past is (for most of us) easily accessible, there is also at the same time an overwhelming sense of misconception and half truths about how things once were. False Histories investigates ways media artists investigate the history of lands (borders, wars), consciously manufactured narratives, memory lapses, and folklore. Through these ideas the pliability of the past comes to the forefront and we can begin to address how one might see multiple iterations of the past. Constructed truths and accepted fallacies build on top of one another becoming part of our culture and propagating our legacy.
With works by: Felix Kalmenson (Canada), Karl Lind (America), Nahed Mansour (Canada), Nik Nerburn (America), Anri Sala (France), and Stina Wirfelt (Scotland).
