The sky is falling! The sky is falling! These familiar words acknowledge the current sense of alarmism while evoking the potential for real danger. Based on real or perceived fears, the Apocalypse takes form as a shared social psychosis.  The work in Apocalypse WOW! —which includes painting, drawing, photography, video, printmaking, and mixed media installation—reconsiders this phenomenon by questioning the role of dominant structures and irreverently injecting humor into the veins of a serious subject. Working with issues as diverse as environmental vulnerability, the digitization of everything, future dystopia, and the complexity of connectedness, the young artists of Apocalypse WOW! are examining a more nuanced set of possibilities for their existence in a time of great uncertainty…while you run for the hills!

The gallery is located in room B239 and is open Monday through Friday from noon to 5 pm.

Monte Vista is proud to present Hey Man, You’re Saved, a group exhibition of new work by nine insightful and diverse artists from the USC Roski School of Fine Arts: Meredith Bayse, Senna Chen, Lucas Clauser, Caitlin Disney, Daniel Doperalski, Hannah Huang, Sydney Mills, Michelle San Agustin, and Kendall Sinclair. Operating between the ideal world of the concept and the structured site of the gallery, the work of these artists manifests through different media to explore appropriated sound and imagery, photographic process, fantastical and constructed landscapes, and the flux of identity. Hey Man, You’re Saved. So come in and be rescued from the monotony of visual consumption. Lets get saved!

]]> Master of Fine Arts Lecture Series presents: Yvonne Rainer http://web-app.usc.edu/ws/eo2/calendar/172/event/869884 http://web-app.usc.edu/ws/eo2/xml/172/event/869884

Artist, dancer, choreographer, filmmaker, and writer Yvonne Rainer has been called "an avant-garde giant" by the New York Times. Born in San Francisco in 1934, she was one of the founders of the Judson Dance Theater in 1962, the genesis of a movement that proved to be a vital force in modern dance in the following decades. Between 1962 and 1975 she presented her choreography throughout the United States and Europe. Since 1972 Rainer has completed seven feature-length films, beginning with Lives of Performers and, more recently, Privilege (1990, winner of the Filmmakers Trophy at the 1991 Sundance Film Festival and the Geyer Werke Prize at the 1991 International Documentary Film Festival in Munich), and MURDER and murder (1996, winner of the Teddy Award at the 1997 Berlin Film Festival and Special Jury Award at the 1999 Miami Lesbian and Gay Film Festival). She is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, notably two Guggenheim Fellowships, a MacArthur Fellowship, a Wexner Prize, seven NEA awards, three Rockefeller Fellowships, and four honorary doctor of fine arts degrees.

Yvonne Rainer, Trio A, 1978. 16mm film produced by Sally Banes.
