SUMMARY:RCA: Scott Hocking
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based Scott Hocking visited Indianapolis in January and selected the former RCA Factory at Michigan and LaSalle as fodder for his installation in the main gallery. “It immediately grabbed me\,” Hocking explained of the experience. “The RCA history was interesting enough. But the building was last used as a recycling plant\, and was filled with now abandoned\, un-recycled waste: plastic\, paper\, foam — thousands of objects.  The irony of these mountains of recyclables is that they would never be recycled. A huge pile of military grade plastic cases\, with ominous stencils: ‘laser firing simulator system\,’ ‘interrogation kit\,’ ‘casualty evacuation kit\,’ ‘tank weapon gunnery simulation system.’  Pallets of clothes and books\, including dozens of old hymnals. Plastic pill and dish soap bottles strewn everywhere. Giant fragments of fast food and gas station signage: McDonald’s\, Steel City\, Family Dollar\, Wendy’s. And a monster stack of Styrofoam slabs and wedges — melted and distorted from failed arson attempts.  The whole place was crazy and great.” \nHocking spent three weeks in Indianapolis gathering materials from the site\, documenting\, researching\, and creating his installation. He hauled over 100 massive hunks of burned Styrofoam\, multiple plastic blobs melted by fires\, fragmented fast food signage\, nifty anthropomorphic food-character murals\, and dozens of other artifacts. He brought this all to Tube Factory. And he worked onsite while living in Big Car’s neighboring artist residency home. The resulting installation uses the main gallery as a kind of ceremonial site — the burned Styrofoam mountain could be a dystopian temple or future glacier. \nAlso featured — in the eastside space adjacent to the cartoon food doodz from the old RCA building — is a sampling of Hocking’s Bad Graffiti series. These are photographs he takes of the work of renegade painters. The series\, featuring photos taken most often in Detroit\, now includes discoveries from his Indianapolis visits. \nIn the video room\, Hocking blends images from projects he’s competed in Detroit and rural Michigan with footage from his recent work in Indianapolis — offering a look at his often solitary and meditative process. The videos also highlight Hocking’s love of nature and ways the natural and man-made worlds are really one. \nHocking’s artwork has been exhibited internationally\, including the Detroit Institute of Arts\, Cranbrook Art Museum\, the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, the University of Michigan\, the Smart Museum of Art\, the School of the Art Institute Chicago\, Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis\, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Museum\, the Mattress Factory Art Museum\, the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago\, the Kunst-Werke Institute\, the Van Abbemuseum\, and Kunsthalle Wien. He was recently awarded a Kresge Artist Fellowship\, and is represented by Susanne Hilberry Gallery. \n“The coyotes roaming Detroit fascinate artist Scott Hocking. It is an animal that is adaptable and gregarious\, yet also solitary and rejects human domestication.  Hocking encounters them on his sojourns through the parts of the city where post-industrial urban landscape is in the process of being reclaimed by nature.  He creates photographs\, sculpture\, and assemblages in these places of transition. Likewise\, he is a coyote-like roamer in pursuit of evidence and archeological specimens created by the modern human species. The coyote is a frequent character in the folklore of the Western World going back to Mesoamerican cosmology—a picaresque figure that has the ability to assume both human and animal form.  It is easy to conjure such a fantastical character around Hocking\, because he is more of a scavenger than flâneur\, and his work is more mythology than documentary.” \n— Laura Mott\, Curator of Contemporary Art and Design\, Cranbrook Art Museum \nThe exhibit\, curated by Shauta Marsh\, is made possible by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. \nThe exhibit is open Monday through Friday\, 9 am – 6 pm and Saturdays 11 am-3pm. \nPhoto: RCA\, installation of found materials\, Scott Hocking

SUMMARY:Leaving The Cube-Alternative Art Spaces

SUMMARY:MUFON Symposium-Bill Konkolesky- UFO Abductions and Encounters
DESCRIPTION:While other people’s first memories are of birthday parties and dental visits\, Bill Konkolesky’s first memory is a visit from a strange\, little man with giant eyes — an alien. It would be the first of many visits he would receive over the years. And\, thanks to MUFON Indiana\, (Mutual UFO Network) Konkolesky will share his expertise on encounters and abductions with the public. \nKonkolesky spent the last two decades actively investigating these otherworldly phenomenons\, trying to make some sense of the bizarre events that have happened to him and others. What he’s discovered is that the truth is far stranger than what he first assumed. \n“At our meetings\, we have people from all sorts of professions\, including pilots and law enforcement\, that have seen things but don’t talk about it at their work\,” Konkolesky told the Oakland County Daily Tribune. \nUnited States presidents Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan\, NASA Astronaut Gordon Cooper\, actor Jackie Gleason\, and former Beatles member John Lennon have all openly discussed their UFO sightings. \n“The thing about the phenomena is that many people have the luxury of disbelief. Culturally\, you don’t have people talking about it\, it’s not in the news\, they live their life completely without any need to buy into something like this\,” Konkolesky continued. “If you tell someone about it and ask them to believe it\, you’re really asking them a lot because then they have to process it —what does this mean to my place on Earth and our place in the universe\, what does that mean for my religious beliefs\, my political beliefs\, or our future. Unfortunately\, some people lose that luxury of disbelief when something goes way beyond the point of explanation\, and they have to re-evaluate everything.”\nIn addition to the presentation by Konkolesky\, State Director for the Indiana chapter of MUFON\, Stewart Hill will speak about technology in his talk “Exoplanets\, A Fine Tuned Universe? Physics and the 4th Dimension and Omega 3.” This will be followed by a free screening at dusk of the 1951 film The Day The Earth Stood Still.\n\nThe Day the Earth Stood Still is a 1951 American black-and-white science fiction film. In the movie\, a humanoid alien visitor named Klaatu comes to Earth\, accompanied by a powerful eight-foot tall robot\, Gort\, to deliver an important message that will affect the entire human race. \nIn 1995 The Day the Earth Stood Still was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as “culturally\, historically\, or aesthetically significant.”\nThe afternoon schedule will go as follows: Konklesky at 1:30 p.m.\, followed by Hill at 3 p.m. and the movie at 7:30 p.m. \nAbout Bill Konkolesky\nBill Konkolesky is State Director of the Michigan Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network and the author of the autobiographical “Experiencer: Raised in Two Worlds” and his personal abduction experiences have been chronicled in the SyFy documentary “Abduction Diaries\,” DVD documentary “Abducted by Aliens: UFO Encounters of the 4th Kind\,” and the ABC news special “UFOs: Seeing is Believing.”\nHe has also served as consultant to the History Channel’s “Hangar 1” and “UFO Hunters\,” as well as the Science Channel’s “Uncovering Aliens” and “Close Encounters.” \nAbout Stewart Hill\nHill has been the State Director for the Indiana Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network for the last six years and served previously as the state Chief Investigator and a state section director. He holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Electronic Engineering and worked for 26 years in the medical diagnostics industry working with state-of-the-art technology and chemistries. Prior to that he worked with commercial and military electronic applications and spent six years in the U.S. Air Force working in airborne navigation. First interested in UFO’s with the 1952 national wave\, he lost interest when the subject of “flying saucers” was discontinued in the popular media but regain interest when the Internet became an informational tool in the 1990’s. He has managed\, investigated\, researched and documented hundreds of Indiana UFO reports over the last sixteen years. \nAbout MUFON Indiana\nMUFON Indiana is a dedicated group of MUFON certified field investigators donating their time and expenses to the investigation of submitted reports and to the study of UFOs.

SUMMARY:The Five Obstructions Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Selected by Cranbrook Art Museum curator Laura Mott to facilitate her interview with artist Scott Hocking\, who is currently exhibiting at Tube Factory artspace\, we will screen The Five Obstructions and The Perfect Human then reference the interview between her and Hocking. \nThe Five Obstructions is a 2003 Danish documentary film directed by Lars von Trier and Jørgen Leth. The film is conceived as a documentary\, but incorporates lengthy sections of experimental films produced by the filmmakers. The premise is that von Trier has created a challenge for his friend and mentor\, Jørgen Leth\, another renowned filmmaker. von Trier’s favorite film is Leth’s The Perfect Human (1967)\, and von Trier gives Leth the task of remaking The Perfect Human five times\, each time with a different “obstruction” (or obstacle) imposed by von Trier. \nIn partnership with Public House Cinema:\nWebsite: publichousecinema.com\nTwitter: @PHCinemaIndy\nInstagram: @publichousecinema\nFacebook: facebook.com/phcinemaindy\nEmail: email hidden; JavaScript is required

SUMMARY:Tributo a Gabriel García Márquez-Tarde de Realismo Mágico
DESCRIPTION:Saturday October 22. 3pm to 5pm.\nTributo a Gabriel García Márquez-Tarde de Realismo Mágico en la Librería Donceles.\nSpanish Professor Michel Trahyn will be leading a conversation about the life and work of Colombian novelist\, short-story writer\, screenwriter and Journalist Gabriel García Márquez. Considered one of the most significant authors of the 20th century and one of the best in the Spanish language\, he was awarded the 1972 Neustadt International Prize for Literature and the 1982 Nobel Prize in Literature.\nGarcía Márquez started as a journalist\, and wrote many acclaimed non-fiction works and short stories\, but is best known for his novels\, such as One Hundred Years of Solitude (1967)\, The Autumn of the Patriarch (1975)\, and Love in the Time of Cholera (1985). His works has achieved significant critical acclaim and widespread commercial success\, most notably for popularizing a literary style labeled as magic realism\, which uses magical elements and events in otherwise ordinary and realistic situations. Some of his works are set in a fictional village called Macondo (the town mainly inspired by his birthplace Aracataca)\, and most of them explore the theme of solitude.\nThis event is a collaboration between SADCO(Sociedad Amigos de Colombia) and Big Car Collaborative.
