Tonight I am looking forward to the reception at Lax Art from 7-10pm for Joel Kyack "Superclogger" curated by Cesar Garcia of LaxArt. Conceived with Providence-based artist and bike mechanic Peter Fuller and developed out of Kyack's interest in chaos, performance, and the relationship between individual will and collective control, Superclogger will present various puppet shows to drivers caught in afternoon traffic jams from a mobile theater housed in the back of a nondescript white pickup truck. Lax Art: Culver City: 2460 S. La Cienaga , CA 90034, please visit twitter.com/superclogger10 for dates and locations of exhibition.     

Wednesday is "Partch: Wild Horses" The first of two evenings of microtonal music and experimental film with Partch, an ensemble directed by John Schneider that performs with an array of custom-built instruments. Featuring works by Harry Partch, Lou Harrison, Anne LeBaron and Madeline Tourt at REDCAT @ CalArts Theater (Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater) Downtown: 631 West 2nd Street, CA 90012, Tickets $25., 8:30pm.     

Thursday Mel Chin will present his collection of Ideas at Santa Monica Museum of Art Santa Monica: 2525 Bergamot Station G1 Michigan Avenue 7pm please visit  http://www.smmoa.org/index.php/calendar/show/2010/06  for more details. 

This Saturday is the monthly Culver City Art walk as well as the Public Art Party in Beverly Hills at Beverly Gardens Park from 12-6pm. Highlights include Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, The Black List at The Paley Center for Media as well as a video installation of Roxy Paine’s Erratic at The Paley Center for Media and of course Yayoi Kusama-inspired face painting  from 1-5pm.
