Devil's
Night - October 30
On
Devil's Night (October 30) 2008 at the Tangent Gallery/Hastings
St Ballroom in Detroit, there will be a congregation of over
40 of the most malevolent fine art artists from across the
nation and overseas to display their darkest of creations
at DAMNED: A Macabre Fine Art Exhibition (www.thatdamnedshow.com).
From HR Giger (www.hrgiger.com) to the freshest of talent,
this sinister assembly will exhibit a diversity of artistries
from the deeply depraved to the intensely introspective guaranteed
to intrigue, disturb, captivate or repulse. This is not Halloween-themed
art but a submergence within the shadowed realms of consciousness
within an intimate ambiance of haunting ethereal soundscapes,
refined freakshow vignettes and cirque-inspired stage performances.
DAMNED
is hosted, with special performances, by the tantalizing circus
hellion Miss Pussykatt (www.sideshowkitty.com) fresh from
her "grinder girl"
act on NBC's America's Got Talent with Sharon Osbourne, Piers
Morgan and
David Hasselhoff. Other devilish treats include the femme
fatale
performance troupe Devil Dolls (www.myspace.com/thedevildolls),
new
dementias from Satori Circus (www.myspace.com/satoricircus1988),
Devil Girl
hostesses, VIP area with an on-site chef, a gallery store
to purchase art
and much more yet to be announced!
However,
DAMNED is truly about the exhibition of fine macabre art with
100+
original works from dark artists across this earth. A complete
artist
roster with celebrity guest features will be released October
1st. Aurally,
the exhibition will be laced with original compositions by
Life Toward
Twilight and the haunting solo strings of Dixon accompanying
the gallery
vignettes.
The DAMNED
festivities begin at 7pm with a VIP Preview and Artist Reception
with the general public opening at 9pm until 2am. General
admission is
$6.66 or $5 with a donation of a canned good for the Detroit
Capuchin Soup
Kitchen or canned/dry pet food for the Michigan Humane Society.
No
Halloween costumes are necessary but red dressy/sexy Devil-wear
is greatly
encouraged.
Also,
visit the DAMNED MySpace page at "www.myspace.com/thatdamnedshow"
for
our Call For Art, VIP pass contest, Devil Girl casting call
and more!
We hope
you join us in celebration as we bring the infamous Detroit
institution of Devil's Night back to our city...without the
arson, of
course.
