First Amendment presents DOOM IS THE NEW HOPE
First Amendment Arts is proud to present Dale Flattum, AKA Tooth, and his new series of prints, DOOM IS THE NEW HOPE, published by the Portland-based Diesel Fuel Prints. Musing on the new series, Flattum says, "I've been accused of being delusionally optimistic, so I decided to let my pessimism out of the basement and see what happened." The resulting apocalyptic series, along with other recent works, will be on display at First Amendment Arts, with an artist's reception on Saturday, December 9th, from 7-10pm. Immediately following, First Amendment is proud to have local yokels Chooglin', Birthday Suits, and Strait A's perform. Their combined heavy weight sound is sure to shake the typically rock free North East corner of Stinson and Broadway. Finally, treat yourself to the musical stylings of DJ E-Dawg and cameo sets by the First Amendment resident DJs Mike the 2600 King and The Wezz Nile Virus.
Flattum, a Bozeman native, took to the road in 1982, touring the US, Europe and Japan for over 9 years with San Francisco noise bands Steel Pole Bath Tub and Milk Cult, and has recorded over a dozen albums, collaborating with musical luminaries including Jello Biafra, Mike Patton, and Carla Bozulich.
In 1983, he received an artist-in-residence grant from the French Government and spent 4 weeks working in Marseilles as a guest of the La Friche art collective. There he recorded with over 20 musicians, eventually producing the critically acclaimed Milk Cult record Project M-13.
After being kicked off the major label London Records for recording an "unlistenable record," Flattum relocated to Raleigh, North Carolina, rededicating himself to making art. Working with Lump Gallery as a Team Lump member, he exhibited in numerous solo and group shows throughout the US, and has most recently come to combine his love of music and art, producing over 100 concert posters. As a founding member of the American Poster Institute, he has peddled his work at several Flatstock poster conventions in Seattle and Austin, and is now residing in Minneapolis and continuing his pursuit of rock art perfection.
Please join us at First Amendment Arts, 1101 Stinson Blvd NE, for Flattum's opening reception for his show: DOOM IS THE NEW HOPE, Dec. 9th, 7-10pm with DJ E-Dawg. After party with live music by Chooglin', Birthday Suits, and Strait A's. No cover charge, after party 21+.
DOOM IS THE NEW HOPE will be on display through Dec. 25th, with Too Much Posse, a multimedia group show curated by Mike Davis of Burlesque of North America, opening on Dec. 27th.
ALSO:
The current show SHROUDING, original art and prints by Aaron Horkey
(BRLSQ, Black Osprey Dead Arts Society) Seldon Hunt (NÆVIL,art for Hydra Head, Southern Lord, seldonhunt.com) and Stephen O'Malley (NÆVIL, sunn0))), ideologic.org, Southern Lord) will be closing this Thursday, December 7th. Please come down and see the finished 15 part printed mural by Hunt and O'Malley as well as Horkey's original pen and ink drawings to many of his best known works. The gallery will be staying open late until 11pm. From 6-11, we'll have a soundtrack for the show with the playlist made up entirely of projects the artists have been involved in, both visually and sonically. Food and beverages will be available.
