The Velaslavasay Panorama at the Union Theatre presents
 
“CONCRETE DAISIES”
a multi-media installation/performance by CAROLE KIM
Two performances only! January 19, 20, 2008, Sat/Sun @ 7:30 pm
 
Los Angeles, CA—The Velaslavasay Panorama at the Union Theatre presents “Concrete Daisies,” a full-length site-specific performance/installation by artist CAROLE KIM, Saturday, January 19 and Sunday, January 20 @ 7:30 pm. For tickets please contact 213-746-2166 or www.panoramaonview.org ($15, $10 members/students).
 
CONCRETE DAISIES is a site-specific performance/installation of dance, sound, and live-feed video projection.  A stellar ensemble of dancers, musicians, and video artists will explore the interior and exterior spaces of the Velaslavasay Panorama at the Union Theater, an historic exhibition hall, theatre and garden dedicated to the production and presentation of unusual visual experiences.  The garden of concrete daisies will play foil to the theater’s own “garden of carnivorous plants and sinister foliage”.  Opportunity for a bird’s eye view pointed to an investigation of that which can only be understood from above, thus introducing the concept of the labyrinth.
 
This performance assumes a hybrid form that collapses the boundaries between installation / live-feed video shoot / live dance / live music / and live video projection. The viewer is invited to roam through this immersive environment and grapple with the simultaneity of the live performers and how they are mediated into the visual and audio spatial mix. It is ultimately a structured improvisation where the viewer witnesses the instantaneous, responsive dialogue between dancer, cameraperson, video artist and musician.
