Eyedrum visual arts crew came in to talk about art shows past, present and
future, the Warhol grant, and the state of Eyedrum as a gallery in general.
A special edition of this podcast that should not be missed!

August 21  *Monday*




*Black Lips*
*The Bumblebeats*
*Music*
*9:00pm*
*$5*


Though barely in their 20's, Atlanta band *Black Lips* have already toured
the US and Europe several times, released two albums on Bomp! records, lost
a lead guitarist in a car crash, built a rabid cult following and earned a
well deserved reputation one of the wildest live bands around due to onstage
fist fights, nudity, violence, arson, projectile vomiting and other body
fluids. You don't want to stand to close to the stage at a Black Lips
performance. This grimy and chaotic four-piece garage-punk band truly don't
give a fuck and will unintentionally prove it live time and again.


Formed with the intention to cross the sound of the Back From The Grave
60's garage compilation series with the Germs, the Lips have developed a
sound unlike anyone else. Anyone familiar with the group will no doubt be a
bit surprised by the sound of their latest "Let It Bloom" album which, while
still skuzzy and raw, contains their catchiest and most melodic moments to
date. If Royal Trux had listened to the Troggs instead of the Rolling
Stones, they might sound like this (though the album does sound quite
Stonesy at times).

*Large Galleries:*
"What Color the Dawn:
Breaking Silence on the 1906 Atlanta Race Riot"


Visual Artists Respond:
John Abner, Tony Bingham, Hermina Glass-Avery,  Michael Harris, Theodore
Harris, Daniel Hoover, Chea Prince, Karen Tauches


A listening station of oral histories by first and second generation
witnesses will also be installed.


Curated by Kevin Sipp with Louise E. Shaw


September 22, 1906, white mobs poured into the Five Points area intent on
racial violence.  Inflamed by months of political rhetoric and newspaper
sensationalism that fed racial fears and stereotypes, the violence against
black citizens spread rapidly to East Atlanta, to Brownsville and Inman
Park.  In the end, at least twelve were dead, hundreds injured;  fearful
for their lives, many fled the city, their fates somehow erased from
history.  *What Color the Dawn* peels back the layers of this buried
history in an effort to challenge our communities to re-view our shared
history.


Through September 30th.


*Small Gallery:*
