“iCU2” New for Countdown to Yuri’s Night: Year of the Robot

If you’re in DC this weekend – April 13 – you need to be at “Countdown to Yuri’s Night: Year of the Robot.” My work will be featured both as part of “Voltron’s Corpse,” and I’ll also have several items available for “cash and carry,” which will be going on during the show.

The sixth annual Countdown to Yuri’s Night (C2YN) — featuring an exhibition of interchangeable robot paintings; burlesque show with Trixie Little and The Evil Hate Monkey, Mr. Gorgeous, Candy Del Rio, The Reverend Valentine, Fannie Spankings, and Kittie Glitter; Swami YoMahmi as your favorite Doctor; music from the bands Dance for the Dying and Atomic Mosquitos; and much more — will celebrate the anniversary of the Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin’s space flight with robot flare.

“Artpocalypse” is the brain-child of Washington, DC professional visual artist Dana Ellyn. With the impending ‘end of the world’ foretold by the Mayan civilization, set to happen on December 21, 2012, Ellyn wanted to create something special to celebrate the end of humanity.

Dana Ellyn has called together 20+ of DC’s established and undiscovered artists to create works of art that predict and parody what might happen to us all on the night of December 21, 2012. Beginning at 7pm on the 21st of December, the general public is invited to come to The Dunes gallery in Columbia Heights to help celebrate and party away our final moments on Earth. Come sample the unique paintings and sculpture while enjoying inspired music and drink as we all wait for ‘the end’ together. Because, if the end of the world is coming, we might as well enjoy it and be with friends.
