| 7:00 pm |
In a hybrid performance of art and magic, Los Angeles-based artist Glenn Kaino collaborates with renowned magician Ryan Majestic in an awe-inspiring interrogation of what is and isn’t believable: a question at the heart of both age-old traditions.
Glenn Kaino, a Japanese American artist born, raised, and currently working in Los Angeles, has versatile skills as an art maker and director of large media projects. Weaving in and out of fine and commercial art realms Kaino has worked as a co-founder of Deep River Gallery in LA and as chief creative officer of Napster. He has also taught at UCLA and University of Southern California. Kaino’s work has been shown at the Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, The Studio Museum in New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh.
Whether on stage in a crowded Hollywood nightclub, among farmers in a remote West African village, or as a special guest at an intimate dinner party, Ryan Majestic uses a lifetime of training to create extraordinary moments of suspense, mystery, and laughter for everyone around. Over the last 13 years, Ryan has taken his act across the US and the world, entertaining audiences in 45 states, 16 countries, and 5 continents.
Two performances: 7 and 9pm.
