Peter McCaughey is a social practice artist in Glasgow, organizing teams to make interdisciplinary work on site-specific themes. His current interest is the intersection of memory and landscape, including the urban landscape. For example, he worked with the community to design a park, and much of the sculpture was fabricated by the community members. McCaughey presents his work by teleconference tonight as part of the PSU MFA Lecture Series pdx.edu/art/mfa-lecture-series. In the Shattuck Hall Annex, 1914 SW Park Avenue, at the corner of SW Broadway and Hall on the PSU campus. 7:30PM Free
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a rich source for surreal filmmaking. One of the best examples is Czech filmmaker Jan Švankmajer's Alice. It is his first feature length film, made in 1988. Švankmajer is famous for his stop action animations combined with live actors, as is the case in this Alice. The film is presented as part of the Fin de Cinema series in which local musicians provide the sound track. Tonight that is Wampire, Litanic Mask and Bruxa. Dancing later.
