Saturday, August 10, Artist Talk at 5:00pm following by Opening Reception from 6:00-9:00

About the show

According to figures from the United Nations, “the world’s population is expected to increase by two billion persons in the next 30 years…and could peak at nearly 11 billion around 2100.” As the human footprint expands across the planet, what will happen to the world that supports us? How will cities develop to cope with a growing population? Can we stay connected to the environment around us without destroying it?

In this exhibition, Johab Silva examines the role of political powers, communities and individuals in balancing the needs of people and nature. His viewpoint is clear: we will be judged on
the outcome. As artists, we need to ask how our personal responsibility manifests itself in our creative vision.

About the artist

Johab Silva is a native Brazilian who has lived and worked in Washington, DC since 2008. Over the past three years, Silva’s work has explored extended themes of appropriation, materiality, space and environmental issues. His research into these concepts includes a visit to the Brazilian rainforest, where he observed the direct confrontation between rapid human development and the environment.

Silva’s most recent work includes video, sculpture, installation, painting and drawing. He has been exhibited nationally and internationally including at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Transformer Gallery, Cody Gallery, Miami Art Palace and the Santo Andre Museum of Art. His work has been published in The Washington Post, Art in America and Sculpture Magazine, and he has recently self-published a book of his work.

Description

Step inside Infinite Space, the first major retrospective of the work of award-winning, artist Refik Anadol, and open your senses to the endless transformation and infinite possibilities at the intersection of man and machine.

How to perceive or imagine infinity has always been one of the central questions of representation in art. ARTECHOUSE’s Summer exhibition attempts to answer it through data sets from memories, culture and space.

The exhibition explores memories and dreams through the mind of a machine by using the tools available to twenty-first-century artists – datasets ranging from human memories, photographs of Mars, cultural archives and sea surface activity as data sculptures and paintings. As part of the exhibition visitors will get to experience Anadol’s world traveled immersive installation titled “Infinity Room” seen by more than a million people around the world, including a half million during a tour in China alone last year, three infinity boxes and a selection of multimedia works spanning his celebrated career.

After nearly two wonderful months exploring punk music of the last 20 years, Lost Origins is starting it’s fall programming with exciting local artist Tom Kim. He presents to us the narrative series: Milk Relics.

Milk Relics tells the post-apocalyptic story of our society at the precipice of environmental collapse.

The works in this solo exhibition reflect Tom’s experience both working professionally, in illustration and animation, and exhibiting as a Korean American painter. The style and composition are inspired by classical Western oil painting, traditional Eastern imagery, and contemporary illustration.

“This warning series is meant to inspire action through a profoundly playful appreciation of our surroundings and each other. The apocalypse is best served with cookies.” – Tom Kim

In the spirit of a DC local arts and music alliance, over 20 local DC musicians, poets, and writers will be performing live in conjunction with the exhibition throughout the entire month of September. Musical genres span classical, folk, indie pop, electronic, and acoustic hip hop.
