OPENING JESSICA BRADLEY ART + PROJECTS

CONCRETE ISLAND
May 16 - June 16, 2012

“It is interesting, if not useful, to consider where one would go in Los Angeles to have an effective revolution of the Latin American sort. Presumably, that place would be in the heart of the city. If one took over some public square, some urban open space in Los Angeles, who would know? A march on City Hall would be inconclusive. The heart of the city would have to be sought elsewhere… The only hope would seem to be to take over the freeways.”

The Big Four Lecture

Michael Decker, Liz Glynn, Jed Lind and Jacob Yanes speak about their practices in relation to time, duration and scale.

The Single Manned Voyage

Tonight is the opening of the Bas Jan Ader retrospective at Scripps College. Above are images of other heretics that have attempted single man voyages in similarly small vessels. Bas Jan Ader at the time of his 1975 ill fated trans Atlantic crossing would have been the smallest craft to have completed a solo crossing.
