HAPPY
DOG GALLERY-- 1542 N. MILWAUKEE, 2ND FLOOR
ONE NIGHT
ONLY-- 04/11/09, 6:00PM - 11:00PM
Celebrating
their two-year anniversary, Chicago-based art collective Deadline
Projects presents Absolute Zero, a one-night exhibition of
multi-disciplinary art at Happy Dog Gallery in Wicker Park. In their
2009 opening show, local artists display new work inspired by
scientific theories of unattainable purity and undefinable states of
being. Absolute Zero is a free event and opens to the public on
Saturday, April 11th, from 6pm to 11pm. Live music will be performed by
Moment Sound.
By definition, 'absolute zero' is the coldest temperature theoretically
possible, which is theoretically impossible to achieve. In other words,
it's cold. Colder than a Chicago winter-- an unattainable, absolute
zero. In temperatures close to absolute zero, matter takes on unusual
properties and state changes. What would actually happen to matter at
absolute zero can only be hypothesized. As is often unavoidable,
scientists find they reach a human limit to their research. As artists,
we translate and illustrate our human limitations.
Participating artists in this show include: Jeremy Bolen,
carlsweets, Miguel Guzman, nikki hollander, Damien James, Rob Jeffries,
Jason Judd, Blake Parish Lewis, Sarah Perez, Holly Sabin, Stephen
Shapiro, David Soukup, and Shawn Stucky.
