Temple of Booom
March 19 - April 17, 2010
Opening Reception: Saturday, March 20, 7-10pm
Okay Mountain proudly presents "Temple of Booom," a collaborative installation by the artist-run alternative space, Cinders Gallery from Brooklyn, NY. Artists Kelie Bowman, Kyle Ranson and STO will create a site-specific installation that combines paintings, prints, drawings, murals and sculpture. Exploring places of worship, rituals, shrines, music, and congregation, Cinders will build their own place of spiritual assembly based not on any one religious faith but on the faith of a loose-knit community of artists, performers, experimenters, and musicians.
Happening concurrently with the SXSW music festival, Temple of Booom will feature a specially curated series of performances inside the installation that will act as a welcome alternative to the usual bar and club venues during the festival and will connect the often disparate crowds of music and art under one beautiful makeshift roof.
Featuring artwork by Molly Colleen O Connell, Edie Fake, Noel Friebert, Maya Hayuk, Isaac Lin, Sam, Mcpheeters, Allyson Mellberg, Shawn Reed, Jeremy Taylor, Jessie Rose Vala, Erin Womack, and Andrew Jeffrey Wright
