NEW OPENING AUGUST FRIDAY THE 13TH

DISCIPLINE BY DESIRE
FEATURING NEW WORK BY BRYN CUIZON AND TOMMY MISHIMA

FOR RELEASE:

A certain sort of diligence often springs from deep fixation in order to fulfill passions that cannot be sated by any direct request. Some may successfully contain or even entirely extinguish such inconvenient longing, but others are left only to be prostrate subjects to the wild and lunging flames of their most essential whim -- the beacon of necessity in their very conception.

This event makes a show of two fellows burning and are burnt as such. Come see how they have petitioned the cosmos, by hand, in pronounced and obscure detail. You will find no slick affectation, thin ruse, or callous gimmick in this body. These drawings are not presented as a selection created by groomed two-dimensional selves; they are the hemorrhaging visceral ambitions of two humble servants captured by fixed surfaces.

Try to enjoy this broad platter of intrigue, but none will be promised that they will not leave without a few new disquieting feelings or disruptive fascinations

MAY 21ST 2010

IN MY PARENTS’ BASEMENT, at Hiding Gallery,invites you to harken back to the liberation and impulse to create in the show's namesake. Like a sort of adolescent shaman practice, youth of recent generations have been known to retreat to the insulated confines of their subterranean free-for-alls, often establishing a
certain primal communion with the seeds of expressive ambition, while also finding a cerebral distance from the all too familiar domestic reality. These tendencies blossom in play, so often sprung from boredom and pubescent discontent, producing works of all mediums(perhaps most iconically in the formation of "the basement band").

This type of wild/wide-eyed and unfettered creative release is the
inspiration for the latest installation of Hiding Gallery's events.
Surrounded by wood paneled walls, the show collects an array of artists who continued to follow through
with the instinctive drive to produce works in any number of forms.
The spread of formats will include a Brion Gysin inspired Dream Machine installation by James Baljo and an animation premier by Joe Jagos featuring the music of Gardens, amidst other surprises.

-B Cuizon

Granted decent conditions, you'll also be welcomed to enjoy the
rooftop and perhaps even the perils of the sky-high trampoline!

Farced movie nights at HIDING GALLERY

aFTER HOURS mock
Originally uploaded by HIDING GALLERY

FARCED presents movie nights at HIDING GALLERY.

For our first night we will be showing Martin Scorcese's 1985 classic black comedy/thriller film AFTER HOURS.

AFTER HOURS depicts a New Yorker, white collar worker Paul Hackett (Griffin Dunne), who experiences a hellish and seemingly endless night on the seedy streets of New York's SoHo village. Broke, frenzied and at his rope's end he is thrust into the increasingly upsetting and often outlandish lives of a variety of ensemble characters. A sequence of misfortunes, coupled with misunderstandings and tragedies threaten Paul's safety and sanity while he attempts to get back to his apartment, uptown.

Veggie sloppy joes. home made french fries and other surprise snacks will be served from 8-9 to accompany the reoccurring diner scenes in the film.

Movie starts at 9.
