WAMarchy Time Lapse Video

Stephen Stephens of Digital Crush Photography whipped up this little gem of a time lapse video taken at the Weisman Art Museum's closing party on Saturday. Presented by the museum and our sister site, l'etoile, WAMarchy was a museum-wide break-all-the-rules art blowout that included art creation stations, an interactive graffiti wall and mural, punk rock tunes, projection installations, food and lots (and lots) of drinks.

Check out l'etoile's review of the event complete with plenty of pictures and details here.

Har Mar Superstar to play next WAMplified!

The Weisman just posted a Facebook event for the next late night WAMplified series and the headliner is....HAR MAR SUPERSTAR! The show is on April 3rd, and if this one is anything like the Mates of State show last month, we anticipate it will sell out fast!

The Facebook event says:

"Music is at the center of WAMplified!, a new late-night series at the Weisman. Offered three times a year, WAMplified! presents a live performance by a band or musician with a thematic connection to the major exhibition in the galleries. In conjunction with the exhibition Common Sense: Art and the Quotidian, Har Mar Superstar headlines this installment. Each WAMplified! event also includes food, drink, a video game lounge, and a midnight tour of the exhibition led by a curator or artist. Read more about the music at harmarsuperstar.com"

Tickets go on sale Friday, January 22, 2010 and are $18 ($14 for members and students). For tickets, visit weisman.umn.edu or call 612-624-2345.
