collaborating with the studio at Outside the Lines to present
a super subjective portrait show that draws on conceptions of identity, memories, and emotional experience. The show includes highly expressionistic self-portraits, icons, and human and animal allegories in electrically charged landscapes. Faces and Places' eclectic nature is a reflection of the individuality of the artists that I have been working with - some of the most honest and fascinating people one could meet. I've challenged them to try new ways of representing themselves, their ideas, and their situations using the right classical or abstract devices to get their particular visions across to the viewer. My work at Outside The Lines has been guided by the hope of giving the artists there the tools and freedom to be who they really are, and I am grateful that I have had the opportunity to get to know them through their art." - DIANA RICE click here to view the art S O L O N G W I N T E R! !

![]() Synth action, shortwave radio hints, shimmering melodic lines, resonant hums, glitches and drones. The Glass Shivers appear to hail from Providence RI, yet don’t expect hyperactive or macho displays of instrumental prowess here. Instead what you get is a mysteriously intriguing journey into softly induced psychosis
and glassy-eyed dreamstates.

Magic People z Massa- chusetts hraje poctivý alternativní
rock, šmrnclý psychedelií a původní \
novou vlnou. Není pochyb, že mají dobře naposlouchaného Captaina Beefhearta nebo Devo, místy ale připomenou i The Fall, Old Time Relijun nebo svoje kámoše The Creeping Nobodies. Jádro kapely tvoří dvojice John Manson (zpěv a basa) a Al Deaderick (klávesy a syntezátory),jediní, kdo jsou v kapele od jejích začátků někdy před třemi lety. Do Prahy Magic People přijedou jako kvartet. Svoje živá vystoupení pojímají kreativně včetně kostýmů a jiných propriet. Bude to show. Více
