Stray Dog @ wakanegra, Palma, Mallorca, 08.11
Waka tiene el placer de invitarlos a la exposición de STRAY DOG.
STRAY DOG es un colectivo creativo con base en Escocia conformado por Craig Barrowman, David Downie y Jim Ewen que lleva desde el 2004 produciendo y comisariando exposiciones y proyectos de artes visuales.
En su primera visita a Mallorca el trio estará mostrando dibujos, pinturas y video, asi como un performance de "site specific" en nuestro barrio, La Caltrava del que ya os indicaremos con mayor detalle lugar, fecha y hora del acontecimiento.
En palabras del propio Craig : " Estamos maquinando; basandonos de alguna manera en el mito de Sísifo para el performance y la expo en general. Nos interesan las realidades o las "conciencias" colectivas . Miramos todo lo que nos indique la lucha diaria y absurda, los comportamientos de cada dia como algo digno de ser representado: el hombre contra la naturaleza o mas bien dicotomia entre unidad y separacion."

Vida perruna...
Arrived in Mallorca last night, ready to start making the exhibition for wakanegra, which opens on 5 Aug. Staying at Gudrun and Dan's (they're 2 of the gang that run wakanegra), in an amazing house with studios, a big workshop, and a wee pool. Today I'll be heading into Palma to explore and scout locations for a performance I hope to do this weekend. Here's some pics of the house/workshop...

Callum Kellie 'Top 20 Arms' @ PROJECT SLOGAN
Callum Kellie presents his project 'Top 20 Arms' at the always excellent Project Slogan tonight, in collaboration with Sarah J Stanley. Go and check it out! There's some free whisky if you get there before it runs out, not to mention some great painting, sculpture and an interactive arcade game installation.
The show runs till 19 June, and I can heartily recommend Pro Slo when in its daytime coffeeshop mode: handmade sandwiches and cakes, and the best coffee in town...
Beauty and the Beast of Burden @ limousine bull
Beauty and the Beast of Burden, curated by Dane Sutherland, is currently on show at the excellent limousine bull gallery/project space in Aberdeen.
Stray Dog went along to the opening last weekend, check out the pics after the jump. The show runs till Sun 5 June, you should really go and see it!
Big Sculpture for UTG Big Picnic
Stray Dog will be showing a big interactive sculpture for 1 day only at the upcoming Union Terrace Gardens Big Picnic on Sat 11 June, 1-5pm (facebook event page here).
The Big Picnic is an annual event to encourage use of this brilliant civic space in the heart of Aberdeen, and to demonstrate to those fat cats and politicians downtown that this place belongs to the PEOPLE, not to the highest bidder.
If you're interested in saving UTG from the short-sighted idiocy of those who would see this place obliterated and replaced by another shopping centre/car-park, come along and get involved!
