March 3, 2012, Saturday - Art(ists) On the Verge Opening Reception at The Soap Factory

Time:  7:00pm - 11:00pm

Location:  The Soap Factory, 514 2nd St. SE

Opening March 3 through April 15, Northern Lights presents the third edition of Art(ists) On the Verge at The Soap Factory. AOV is an intensive, year-long, mentor-based fellowship program for emerging artists working experimentally at the intersection of art, technology, and digital culture with a focus on network-based practices that are interactive and/or participatory.

Feel your heart race as you pull the trigger of Drew Anderson’s "shotgun projector" illuminating the point of view of an animatronic hunter in the north woods of Minnesota. Zero in on Mike Hoyt’s video paintings of the Powderhorn neighborhood and join the online civic dialog. Get on the horn and leave a status update for Caly McMorrow’s sound and light installation. See yourself and the world around you differently in Anthony Tran’s hertzian funhouse mirror. Make your mark on the environment with Aaron Westre’s urban planning video game.

Artist talks March 23 and 30, 8 pm at The Soap Factory.

Art(ists) On the Verge is generously supported by the Jerome Foundation.
