STERLING RUBY // Studio visits on WEDNESDAY 06 MARCH

STERLING RUBY

ARTIST

"Sterling Ruby works prolifically in a wide range of mediums, from glazed biomorphic ceramics and poured urethane sculptures, to large-scale spray-painted canvases, nail polish drawings, collages and videos. Through his varied practice he conducts an assault on materials and social structures, referencing subjects that include marginalised societies, maximum-security prisons, modernist architecture, artefacts and antiquities, graffiti, bodybuilders, the mechanisms of warfare, cults and urban gangs.... His works are unique hybrids of sources, media, glosses on tradition and autobiographical notation." 

(As profiled by Saatchi Gallery at saatchi-gallery.co.uk) 

Sterling Ruby (American, born Germany, 1972) holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an MFA from the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, California. Upcoming solo exhibitions include EXHM at Hauser & Wirth London, SOFT WORK at Museo d’Arte Contemporanea, Rome, and an exhibition at Kukje Gallery, Seoul.

WINTER 2013 VISITING ARTISTS AND LECTURES POSTER

WU TSANG/ WEDNESDAY 20 FEBRUARY / SCREENING W Q&A

WU TSANG

ID/NEW GENRES 

WILDNESS 

SCREENING+Q&A WITH DIRECTOR

7PM WEDNESDAY 20 FEBRUARY

.:.:POPCORN WILL BE SERVED.::.

Super special screening with UCLA MFA ID alumn Wu Tsang!  This widely acclaimed documentary has only screened a couple times in LA and is not in distribution!  HERE + NOW, PEOPLE! And it will be cool to watch it at Warner because Wu worked on this project while in our program.  

Rooted in the tropical underground of Los Angeles nightlife, WILDNESS is a documentary portrait of the Silver Platter, a historic bar in the MacArthur Park area that has been home for Latin/LBGT immigrant communities since 1963. With a magical-realist flourish, the bar itself becomes a character, narrating what happens when a group of young artists create a weekly performance art/dance party (organized by director Wu Tsang and DJs NGUZUNGUZU & Total Freedom) called Wildness, which explodes into creativity and conflict. What does “safe space” mean, and who needs it? And how does it differ among us? At the Silver Platter, the search for answers to these questions creates coalitions across generations.  Check the website below to watch the trailer and the blog for a great account of questions and struggles and triumphs that were wrestled with during the making and release of the video.

WU TSANG is a Los Angeles based artist and filmmaker. His artworks and performances have been presented at the 2012 Whitney Biennial and New Museum Triennial in New York, the ICA Philadelphia, MOCA Los Angeles, the Gwangju Biennial (South Korea) and upcoming at the Liverpool Biennial (UK). Tsang was named one of Filmmaker Magazine's “25 New Faces of Independent Film" in 2012. His first feature WILDNESS won the Grand Jury Award for Outstanding Documentary at Outfest 2012 [World Premiere: MoMA Documentary Fortnight (New York, NY), SXSW (Austin, TX), Hot Docs (Toronto, Canada), SANFIC8 (Santiago, Chile)]. He has received grants from Good Works, Frameline, Wexner Center for the Arts, IFP Labs, Art Matters, Tiffany Foundation, Frieze Foundation, and the Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
