Join
us for the opening exhibition presenting new sculptural and
installation work by artist Caleb Nussear, the "Landsat Seven"
Satellite.
A live "cold" synth, and exotic instrument score by Ian M Colletti will accompany the reception.  
All of the work presented is based upon consideration of the physical forms and materials of earth-mapping satellites.  The
total room installation will be centered around one large 80-inch high
satellite sculpture, that takes the existent Landsat satellites as a
point of departure, and in addition feature wall-mounted 2-dimensional
works and slide and video projection of abstracted landscapes in
reflective faceted mirror screens.
Materials
used in the construction and ornamentation of the sculpture will
include yet are not limited to: electrical circuitry, 24-carat gold
leaf, mirror, recycled plastics, re-purposed found objects, and
miscellaneous junk.
This
installation will function seamlessly and add to the musical /
extra-curricular ongoing programs Vaudeville Park, ending in a special 4
day Music and Art CMJ Music Marathon showcase.
