Artist talk with Brognon-Rollin
1717 East 7th Street, Los Angeles, CA
Wednesday, March 20 at 7:00 PM 9:00 PM
Ends Mar 20, 2019
Artists David Brognon and Stéphanie Rollin, aka Brognon-Rollin, are recognized for absorbing strong contexts–from prisons to corporate factory shut downs to under-resourced schools. On the occasion of their project 'Maybe Some of Us Will Change This' with ICA LA and the FLAX Foundation, they will present their approach to make conceptual work that hacks social realities. They are dedicated to serving the human element through collaboration and with such forms as sound installations, time-based work, and sculpture. Maybe Some of Us Will Change This is a multi-site sound-based work developed during their month-long residency with France Los Angeles Exchange (FLAX) and ICA LA at Metropolitan Continuation High School in Downtown Los Angeles. Brognon-Rollin work with raw, often marginal social material where the recurrent themes are confinement, expectation, and control. They confront these restrictive systems with their own systems of refracting reality. Curious and intrepid, the two artists go wherever their research takes them, working in the field and in direct, occasionally physical, confrontation with their subjects.
