Prometheus Exposed
Curated by Fernando Maneca
Featuring Karen Bernard, Julie Fotheringham & Jarryd Lowder, and Joshua Fried
Friday & Saturday, December 17-18, 2010 @ 8:00 pm
For BAX’s 20th Birthday Season, alumni, faculty, current and former resident artists provide a striking curatorial dynamism. They have pulled from their experiences and interests at and beyond BAX. As a group they represent BAX’s past, present and future.
Curated by former Artist In Residence (2004-06), Fernando Maneca, PROMETHEUS EXPOSED is the kick-off event for BAX’s 2010/11 PERFORMANCE & DISCUSSION SERIES. A long-time fan of technology in the arts, Mr. Maneca brought together three very different artists who manipulate technology on stage, reinterpreting the present while quoting pop and underground sub-cultures. The work will serve as a point of departure for the post performance discussion. By curating work that features technology rather than hiding it, Mr. Maneca hopes that the discussion will revolve around how the various forms of visible and invisible technology have influenced the performing arts throughout history and its rocky relationship with patrons, critics and other artists.
