Picks of the Week 3
Art That Will Haunt You Showcase at Paia Tattoo Parlor
Spook Occurrence: Saturday (October 9), 7-10pm, Paia Tattoo Parlor, Paia, Free
|
October 06, 2010 | 05:23 PM If the pressure of the global economic crunch has you feeling like the need for fine art is akin to the need for a hole in the head, perhaps you should start thinking of it more like the ancient civilizations that practiced trephination—the burring of pukas into the skull as primitive brain surgery or as means to achieve enlightenment. After all, art is enlightening, spiritual and healing. Following up on the celebrated show "Cabinets of Curiosities" by Ghalib El-Khalidi (stay tuned for more on this artist in next week's issue), the parlor's new exhibit is "lighthearted fun with symbolism and pop culture [bringing] a whole new appreciation to Halloween, and the freedom to flaunt hellishness"—with a double feature consisting of artist Aimee M. Watters's series "Not So Pretty Pictures," and illustrator Isaac Keith Martinez's "Spook 'Ems" collection. (Runs through October 31, closing with a costume party.) 579-8515, paiatattooparlor.com If that doesn't strike your fancy, here's another hoopla to stick your head into, this Saturday: San Francisco-based performance artist Shakti Sunfire continues her workshop tour with a hula hooping how-to on Maui. (October 9, 7-9pm, Makawao Union Church, $35). 281-3394, shaktisunfire.moonfruit.com
