Preview: {Prologue} Release Party

In continuation of our Dec/Jan issue’s coverage of contemporary artist, Damon Davis, we bring you news of Davis‘s latest project, FarFetched. An independent music and art imprint, Farfetched is Davis’s brainchild comprising of forward thinking musicians, artists, and imaginative video artwork. Farfetched is celebrating its first record release, {Prologue}. A music mix comprising of the who’s who of upcoming local acts, {Prologue} is a preview of things to come. Gathering sounds from a breadth of genres, {Prologue} promises a preview that will highlight the strengths of its forward-thinking musicians whose work will be featured by Farfetched.

The acts featured will be: 18 and Counting, Adult Fur, Standing Sleep, Scriptz n Screwz, Thelonius Kryptonite, Helen Marie, Scrub, Whiteout, and Blank Generation.

FarFetched also incorporates other forms of art, such as the tactile. An example would be the installation from Matt Strom and Davis which will also be in attendance at the party.

You can catch the show, for free, January 20th. Festivities will commence within the space of 2720 (2720 Cherokee) with doors opening at 9 PM and music starting at 10 PM.

In addition to {Prologue}, FarFetched has begun a monthly musical podcast, BadTaste. Curated by a different musical mind each month, BadTaste will undoubtedly provide a curiously different aesthetic upon every listen. You can check out BadTaste‘s premier podcast by clicking on the graphic below:

What’s Going On: 1/5 – 1/8

Now that it’s officially the weekend, I can’t help but wonder, What Going On?

Thursday, January 5th

//1//

Esoteric impressions of sunrises, noon skies, sunsets, haystacks, and landscapes are all bound permanently to his canvases. Even within the walls clothed with ivy, he found inspiration inside of his garden at Giverny. Now, for the first time in 30 years, Claude Monet’s monumental Lilies exhibition has found its way back to St. Louis. Present until the 22nd of this month. Almost a century after his death, Monet remains one of the most prolific painters, not only of the Impressionist epoch, but of all time. Presented by SLAM against gray walls, his paintings vibrate with an intensity only true passion and genius can create.

Friday, January 6th

Every Friday Cafe Sebastienne posts a new menu for The Kemper Musuem’s patrons to feast on. This Friday prepare to mange on starters like Moroccan-spiced carrots and beets, gorge on an entree like the lamb and duck sausage cassoulet. Prior to eating to quell your tummy’s desire, stroll through the Kemper’s Companion Pieces exhibition. You’ll see the likes of platonic and romantic couples whose art inspired one another. Willem De Kooning and his wife, Elaine, are presented in addition to artwork by Neil Welliver and Alex Katz, and colleagues Jules Olitski, David Smith, and Kenneth Noland.

The Bad Plus have been combining uncompromisingly pretty piano strings, harmonious upright bass, and energetic drums for a decade. Catch them at Jazz at the Bistro around 7:30 PM.

Saturday, January 7th

Works on Paper, Andy Leicht

Andy Leicht is a St. Louis based painter whose artwork will be ending its exhibition tonight at Fort Gondo. The series, Recent Paintings, is comprised of oil on canvas work mostly incorporating abstract and figurative subjects.

Eleven brought you news this month’s issue about PLUSH, the next big venue in STL. Get a feel for the place by checking out Bay’s Bash. Celebrating the end to his corporate matters, Bay is focusing on what he loves (KDHX) and inviting you all to come kick it for free. From 8 PM until whenever, expect music from Beth Bombara and Karl Eggers, beer at half price, and party hats.

Sunday, January 8th

Featured artist Buzz Spector

Kick back and listen to Bad at Sports. BaS is a weekly contemporary art talk podcast. Featuring national and local artists, BaS is an approachable glimpse to the art world. This week’s guest is local writer, artist, and the founder of San Francisco’s WhiteWalls urban gallery, Buzz Spector.

Spector’s work is currently on exhibition at The Bruno David Gallery.

I never could quite comprehend the fascinating nature of Jack White until I saw The Raconteurs at Bonnaroo a few wet and HOT summers ago. Even when he appeared on stage, and my eyes appeared to cloud over in awe (was it really ‘awe’? The world may never know), I still pondered the irreverent position he took on stage. Maybe if I had watched Under Great White Northern Lights, the White Stripes documentary following them during one of their final tours, I would understand. Well, now I have the chance to comprehend, as do you. Schlafly Bottleworks is hosting the film at 8 PM tonight. Be aware, you might be tempted to dress like a peppermint.

Video: Bo and the Locomotive “On My Way”

Photo by Johnny Andrews | jandrews@post-dispatch.com

Clever title, right?

Since they’re known for the absurd amount of musical prowess displayed during their live shows, it’s no surprise Bo and the Locomotive would eventually shoot a live video. Carved out by STL Today‘s LISTEN division, the video shows some familiar faces around Cherokee being galvanized into a food fight by Bo’s enthusiastic performance.

Let’s get real here: St. Louis is a sometimes a seriously pretty city. Part of her beauty is the brick architecture that studs homes throughout the city. Unfortunately, she’s just encrusted with the vandalism of apathetic denizens and burdened by a reputation that is in dire need of rehabilitating. Support STL by attending a screening of “Brick by Chance and Fortune“. The film centers around the history of brick-theft, neglect, and urban renewal, and the promise of a brighter future.

Karma is all parts-bookstore, gallery, publisher. They specialize in books about artists. Part of Karma’s charm is their special brand of sales. Installing pop-up stores to-and-fro, they effectively cast a capricious air to publication.

They also are shipping an enormous installation to White Flag. Multimedia neo-pop artist, Dan Colen is exhibiting his artwork in the White Flag Gallery this weekend.

Hailing from New York, this will be Colen’s first appearance in St. Louis.Part of Colen’s “Trash” series, the installation, consisting of materials varying from glass bottles to discarded posters, will hang from Thursday to Sunday.

Colen is part of an artist collective that calls, among others, photographer Ryan McGinley a member. Having been featured in a Karma pop-show himself, McGinley is most known for his voyeuristic aesthetic which utilizes stunned and stark composition of Larry Clark‘s Tulsa, to capture the naivety of his subjects who embody youthful splendor.

 

Colen’s work will be featured in the gallery Friday within the hours of  7-9, Saturday and Sunday from noon-5.

Where: White Flag Project, 4568 Manchester.

I want this poster in my bedroom. Um, what?

Plainly speaking, you’re an idiot if you haven’t listened to Harry Nilsson…ever. “Early in the Morning” is a gem, man. Nilsson is one of the best singers of all time. I know that, other people know that, and whether you do or you don’t know that, you need to hit up the What is the Point? A Tribute to Harry Nilsson this weekend. To elaborate on the event’s apathetic-sounding title, The Point! was Nilsson’s fable-tastic concept album revolving around Oblio and his intrepid dog, Arrow. Without points adorning their foreheads, the pair are ostricized for being different. Yeah, this is an acid-induced morality tale about acceptance, but all you need to know is that it’s brilliant. Also, it will be one of the definitive albums I’ll play my children over and over. But lest I digress, there will be a screening of The Point!‘s film, and bands like Theodore and Ransom Note will be covering some of Nilsson’s jams. Joining them will be Rats and People’s Motion Picture Orchestra, Old Lights and many more.

Times: Door 8PM/Show 9PM

Tickets: $10 if you’re 21. $13 if you’re a damn dirty minor.

Where: Off Broadway

She so darn cute! Look at that dang tiara! Oh, golly!

A little bird, not our night hawk we keep stationed at 11 Headquarters, told me “never sleep on VH1′.  While this little bird might have been an acid flashback, she certainly had great advice when Ximena Sarinana‘s colorful music video for “Different“ popped up one Saturday morning. A voice so sweet, it mimes the peculiar lightness of honey dew, Sarinana packs both earnesty and fun into her lyrics for an all-around pleasent experience.

Times: 9 PM

Tickets: $10 – $12

Don't you just wanna PLAY WITH IT?!

Well, I love the Ninja Turtles.  Okay, no…but really it’s my eternally six sister who loves cartoons and pizza eating reptiles.  And while I’ll pause for some Samuri Champloo and Domino’s, it’s really just the men the Ninja Turtles are named after that I love.  Speaking of those cats, I’d really like it if someone took me to go see the Leonardo DaVinci Machines Exhibit. It’s the first (and probably only) time these primitive versions of hang gliders (above), cars and bicycles will be in St. Louis.

Times: 10 AM – 6 PM daily

Tickets: $9 – $14

Where: 800 Market Street

Artwork from the album "Returning and Leaving".

I’ve officially began the Radiohead fandom part of my life’s journey. Kid A has secured its place in my Top 5 Albums and I stand by the fact that under its hypnosis, I can write a badass paper on Manifest Destiny. Lest I digress, it’s easy to see how my aural aesthetics may have changed course these past month’s. Already a fan of the experimental jams of Adult Fur, Eleven urges you to consider Ra Cailum. Their seriously beautiful ambiance is perfect for an afternoon slow dance. Thank goodness they’re in town today.

Times: 7:30 PM

Tickets: $7

Where: Cicero’s

Opening Acts: Corpse Pose, US English and Bloody Knives

Rally to Save Pevely Dairy: 11/19/11!

The Pevely Dairy has been in our midst since the 1880s. It’s earned its place as a St. Louis landmark and an example of the Neoclassical architecture of that period in time. Now, with the threat of demolition looming, The Pevely Preservation Coalition is asking for your support in keeping Pevely in tact.

 

Who: The Pevely Preservation Coalition

What: …invite you to demonstrate your disapproval of the demolition of the Pevely Dairy

Where: The corner of Grand & Chouteau

When: Saturday, November 19th. 3PM.

Why: …because urban sprawl and demolition are disgusting, and urban renewal is ingenious. (Fun fact: There’s a regional band called The New Urban Sprawl!)

Immediately prior to the rally, there will be a design charrette at 10am-2pm at 911 Washington Ave., Suite 170 (further details in the flier image above), sponsored by the Landmarks Association of St. LouisnextSTL, and the Preservation Research Office.

 

A press release from The Pevely Preservation Coalition (and local urbanist and STL STyLehouse owner Randy Vines) said:

On October 26th, Saint Louis University applied for a demolition permit for the historic Pevely Dairy complex at Grand Boulevard and Chouteau Avenue. A week later, SLU announced plans to build new SLUCare facilities on the site, but tentatively stated that it would consider preserving the 1943 Pevely smokestack and the façade of the 1915 Pevely Dairy building on the corner.

SLU is a major employer and healthcare provider in the St. Louis region, and we support its need to expand. Yet the university could preserve both of these structures and still have enough land area on the Pevely site to double the size of its current facilities (using the existing structure or in a separate new structure) and provide surface parking for almost 500 cars. That gives SLUCare ample room to grow, even by suburban standards.

The Pevely Dairy complex is on the National Register of Historic Places. Under our city’s preservation ordinance, such buildings should not be demolished if they are structurally stable and have rehabilitation potential. The Pevely buildings are both, as evidenced by the numerous plans to rehab them using historic tax credits prior to SLU’s purchasing the site in August 2011.

The city’s Preservation Board will review the demolition permit for the Pevely complex on Monday, November 28th. Though these buildings should be protected by law, this citizen board is often swayed by the powers that be to approve plans for large institutions such as SLU. That’s why we MUST speak out against these plans, and ask local officials to do the same.

Off Broadway is playing host to a bizarre collective of musicians. Bobby Conn, Skarekrauradio and M.S.I.F tonight at 9PM. Look for his experimental jams to cost about 7 bucks to listen to. This Bobby Conn cat is a trip, check out the video below.

Heralded as the best “indie dance party” (…whatever the fuck that means. Literal is the interpretation.) in STL, London Calling is lookin’ to erupt at The Gramophone around 10:30PM. Hopefully they’ll have the photo booth again…heh heh heh.
