<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 24px;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">is based on a performance in Paris now redesigned for Atlanta's Underground and ELEVATE art installations.</span></span><br />
</div><span style="font-size: 24px;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Experience performance artists from French theatre collective <strong>Dérézo </strong>in town to collaborate with Atlanta's <strong>Théâtre du Rêve </strong>for EIGHT site-specific performances culminating in a live jazz concert with local and French musicians. </span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 24px;">Meet at the Fountain Plaza in Underground.</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: 24px;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Visitors will tour each performance in small groups led by a docent from <a _cke_saved_href="http://www.theatredureve.com/" href="http://www.theatredureve.com/">Théâtre du Rêve</a>. Tours begin and end at the Fountain Plaza where the entire crowd will be treated to a brilliant live concert by Electro Jazz Collaboration with Arnaud Hugonie of Atlanta and Yann Gueguen of Brest, France. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 24px;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">You'll never see your city the same way again, as hidden corners and balconies are redefined and reactivated.</span></span><br />
<br />
The<em> </em>Microfiction performance project is based on a novel by French writer Régis Jauffret called Microfictions, winner of the 2007 France Culture/Telerama Literary Prize. Microfictions features 500 short stories, each just one and a half pages long celebrating the diversity, fragility, and above all the commonality of the human condition. <strong>Microfictions was performed in Paris in 2008 during a nine-hour event at the Theatre du Rond-Point on the Champs Elysées. </strong><br />
<br />
<strong> Now, Théâtre du Rêve brings Microfictions to The ATL </strong>as a remarkable urban experience that breathes life into unexpected places through storytelling, highlighting subtleties in the familiar that often go unnoticed. Eight site-specific performances will be performed in different styles including puppetry. The production molds itself to Atlanta’s urban landscape for the first time bringing together artists from France and Atlanta to create an interactive art experience that travels from place to place.<br />

<em>Hidden Perception </em>is a series of pieces using messages that the viewer can only read with a mobile phone or digital camera. The messages will be produced by infrared LEDs and placed on boxes hung in store fronts throughout Underground Atlanta. The viewer will only know to use their mobile device by reading the signage indicating where a message is located. This experience encourages the participant to think about how the tactile world can have multiple layers of perspective. The use of a mobile phone or digital camera carries meaning as well; using technology to alter reality makes a statement about the future of the human experience.<br />

It will shine in a manner that lies midway between memorial and celebration. The light beam will be neither stationary like a memorial nor in the wide-sweeping motion of an event promotion. Instead, the beam projects upward and moves uncertainly- just enough to step away from “memorial” and hint that something <em>just might </em>be happening. The ambiguity of the motion when compared to two commonly recognized uses of light beams reflects the ambiguity of Underground Atlanta and suggests that although the area may be clinging to life, there remains hope for resurrection.</div>ELEVATEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13554486524902631675noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2014883914620035936.post-80128023104169578882011-08-04T07:37:00.000-07:002011-08-04T07:37:47.278-07:00Artist Spotlight:<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span><strong>SIGNS FOR DIMES</strong></span></span></div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

Well, add Underground Atlanta to the list because Signs For Dimes is installing a transformative display for Elevate//Art Above Underground! <em>Window Shopping</em> will transform vacant storefronts to display an alternate shopping experience: “Love Shop”, “Friend Emporium”, “Respect Store” and other items money cannot buy. The faux storefronts are a nostalgic reference to the way Atlanta’s shopping districts would have appeared in the early 20<sup>th</sup> century. The project will be bright, colorful, compelling and humorous, and the viewer will be left reminded that the things we love the most can’t be bought in stores.</span></div>ELEVATEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13554486524902631675noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2014883914620035936.post-41291284427606526042011-08-04T05:43:00.000-07:002011-08-04T07:40:21.115-07:00Artist Spotlight:<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>TWO KIDS & A DREAM</b></span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><i>Wha Cha Don’t Wanna Tap Into</i></div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

The Doodlers will be meeting in Union Square, next to the Washington Statue, and riding the train all the way to Coney Island. Participants are asked to bring drawing utensils, paper, and tape — D. Drag encourages the riders to post their work up on the subway walls, as well as distribute their art to “jaded New Yorkers.” To that I say, <i>we’ll show you jaded!</i><br />
