Scion Presents: Installation 6 - Video - Minneapolis

Scion launched the sixth edition of its successful art tour, "Installation 6: Video" in January at its own 4,200 square foot Installation L.A. Space gallery in Culver City. Having visited Austin, TX, and Wichita, KS, the tour now moves on to Minneapolis, MN. The show opens at Pink Hobo, 507 East Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55414 on May 7th with a reception from 7 p.m. – 11 p.m. The exhibit will run until May 21st. The annual tour, designed to expose established and emerging artists and their work to audiences across the country, features a distinctive selection of international talent and will wrap up in Brooklyn, New York. For 2010, the tour focuses on the video medium, which emerged in the 1960s and has since expanded galleries into more experimental, kinetic, and interactive spaces. "Installation 6: Video" challenged 10 artists to create non-narrative video installations that will transform five unique exhibitions. Artists include: Dust La Rock (Brooklyn, NY), Eric Nakamura (Los Angeles, CA), Saelee Oh (Los Angeles, CA), Funeral Fog (French + Alan Glass) (London, England), Ill-Studio (Paris, France), Josh Graham (New York, NY), Monihan Monihan (New York, NY), Mark Mothersbaugh (Los Angeles, CA), PMKFA (Tokyo, Japan) and Sage Vaughn (Los Angeles, CA). "For ‘Installation 6,' we unveil a full exhibition of video installations that illustrate how 10 emerging artists and creative icons see the world through vivid movement and color," says Jeri Yoshizu, Scion manager, sales promotions. "In our continued support of independent artistic expression, we are eager to introduce audiences across the country to inventive works by leading talent in art, music and design who push the boundaries of creativity with every medium they explore." http://www.scion.com/installation http://vimeo.com/10238943
