We’re All Pretty Bizarre
An art show inspired by the films of John Hughes
OPENING RECEPTION JUNE 5 from 7pm
June 4-27, 2015
at HOT ART Wet City
FREE ADMISSION!
In 1985, John Hughes directed Weird Science and The Breakfast Club. Considering he only directed 8 films, that made 1985 is pretty important year for him. He also wrote National Lampoon’s European Vacation that year! Thirty years later, his films are still an important part of western pop culture. Though not the first art show tribute of his work (and likely not the last), we’re pretty excited about this one! Expect portraits of his actors, references to narrative elements, mash-ups and other weird and exciting interpretations from films like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Planes, Trains & Automobiles, Uncle Buck, Home Alone, Christmas Vacation, Pretty in Pink, and more!
Featuring MW Bowen and Sherri Rogers, with Chris Bentzen, ARGH!!, Kay Slater, Jack Morris, Bruce Wilson, Jacqueline Simpson, Mandy Lau, Dusan Postolovic, David Vegt, Jay Cabalu, Kate Murray, Jean Paul Langlois, Chris Tait, Becca Williams, Josh Farnworth, Fred Chevalier, and more TBA!
