SUMMARY:The Absinthe Drinkers @Dalet Art Gallery LiQin Tan Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Absinthe Drinkers play one of their rare gallery shows
 ! Instead of cheap beer and surly bartenders, we'll have box wine and 
 art! \nThe Absinthe Drinkers are a perfect fit with LiQin Tan’s sol
 o exhibition featuring his fantastical and surreal animation installat
 ions, projections, and digital print series.\nTan uses spirit levels a
 s a signal to describe a natural phenomenon in humans, where human bra
 in development is an equalized procedure. The competing concepts of th
 e brain--whether the battle of the brain's size versus its intellectua
 l capacity, or of its technological versus its spiritual side--are alw
 ays kept in equilibrium. In the latter art series, Tan presents himsel
 f as a digital naturalist, choosing the burl/lava as the natural art f
 orm to explore his “Digital-Primitive” theme in a multifaceted and
  reciprocal process: Making digital 3D images through primitive techno
 logy and materials, while also making primitive rawhide/wood/rock art 
 through digital technology.\nThis exhibition of work consists of spiri
 t-level installations alongside dozens of digital prints on metal, woo
 d, and rawhides. There are also numerous animations projected onto sus
 pended rawhides and LCD monitors displaying separate animations.\nThe 
 Absinthe Drinkers will be transmitting their own brain-signals with th
 eir steam-pop influenced compositions about sex, monsters, and murder.
  The Drinkers create their songs using a laboratory-grade components i
 ncluding lyrics culled from ancient and modern literature, catchy soni
 c hooks, and copious amounts of absinthe-spiked libations. The Absinth
 e Drinkers do not provide absinthe at their shows, but certainly encou
 rage the audience to BYO...\nMore info:\nhttp://daletart.com/index.sht
