Movie Time With Beautiful/Decay

I'll be honest, I'm not really a huge fan of Beautiful Decay but I'm kind of feelin' these movie themed events. Check em out!





Beginning May 6th, we will screen a new art-based movie each Wednesday during the month of May at Space 15Twenty. This selection of films showcases a stunning array of creative concepts and ideas hand picked by us here at Beautiful/Decay!

We kick off with Loic Prigent’s behind-the-scenes documentary, “Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton” delving into Marc Jacobs’ busy creative life, and featuring appearances by Victoria Beckham, Uma Thurman and other fashion-forward Hollywood starlets.

This is a one of a kind opportunity to watch these movies outdoors and on the big screen! Popcorn and drinks will be available.


Watch a clip of the Marc Jacobs + Louis Vuitton documentary here.

LA - Art Exhibit "Cannibal Carnival" Opening Reception

NECKFACE
"CANNIBAL CARNIVAL"
NEW IMAGE ART GALLERY
7908 Santa Monica Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90046
www.newimageartgallery.com

Opening Reception Aug.16th, 7-10pm
Show runs Aug. 16th – Sept. 20, 2008

Neckface is back in L.A. to stir up some trouble. This time, his third
solo show at New Image Art, "Cannibal Carnival," is all
about taking things out of context to create some chaos. The
watercolors featured in the show explore good things gone bad,
subjects that become frightening when taken away from familiar
settings. "When you see a clown at a circus its funny," says the
artist, "but if you saw the same clown from the circus in an alleyway
at midnight it wouldn't be funny at all." The original integrity of
the medium is also twisted; a method which the artist normally
associates with wholesome and effeminate images, Neckface uses
watercolors and gouache to depict morbid and jarring scenes.

Also featured in the show is a set-up familiar to Neckface but
certainly not for an intimate gallery space. At the opening, friends
of the artist and professional skaters Sammy Baca and Lizard King will
be skating in a caged off mini-ramp filled with objects they encounter
every day: knives, spray paint, and booze of course. "They are both
satanic," Neckface says. "Sammy once carved Satan into Lizard King's
chest with a knife.

With "Cannibal Carnival,"Neckface offers the public a rare glimpse of
his curious existence--parts of his life and mind that cannot be
merely spray painted on the streets of New York. "I'm more of a
trouble maker skateboarder who makes stuff."

Anthem Magazine Presents Whistling Past the Graveyard Hosted By Jason Lee

Join Anthem Magazine and WESC as we present Whistling Past the Graveyard featuring new works by Mercedes Helnwein and hosted by Jason Lee at the Merry Karnowski Gallery.
Helnwein's drawings have been described as "photo-realistic," "lucid fairy-tales," "strikingly bizarre," "haunting," "southern Gothic," "evocative" and "unexpected." Her self-portraits have been compared to Cindy Sherman and her sense of quiet drama to Alfred Hitchcock and Edgar Allen Poe.
Also included in the exhibition is a video projection, in which the formerly frozen characters jerk to life for the first time in thick saturated colors.
