Rafael Toral Trio
|
Thursday, May 14th 7 to 8pm
Join Lisbon's critically acclaimed sound artist, Rafeal Toral, and his energetic trio comprised of C. Spencer Yeh (Burning Star Core) on Violin and Trevor Trermaine (Hair Police) on drums. Together, the three artists will bring OSU Urban Arts Space to life, activating all its hidden sounds. Don't miss their one stop in Columbus.
To see Toral perform is akin to watching Fantasia: it is true magic. Using his handmade electrode oscillator he is, at times, like a conductor conducting invisible sounds, and, at other times, an elegant musician stroking the keys of unseen instruments.
With the generous support of Direcção-Geral das Artes and Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian.
This series is part of our after-work programing offered
Thursday evenings. Before the show stop by Tip Top Kitchen & and ask for the Urban Artists' Special: It's very special
indeed and its only $3.

Storytelling Across the Arts 2009 Idea Lab Award Recipient
|
Friday, May 15th 7 to 8pm
As part of the Idea Lab program, the OSU Urban Arts Space is hosting a special evening of Storytelling Across the Arts, an interdisciplinary conversation between the arts with a focus on narrative.
Over the past ten weeks Storytelling Across the Arts held a competitive jury in order to select exceptionally talented visual and literary artists in the OSU Master of Fine Arts programs. These artists were then paired together to create textual/visual documents.
Tonight, the jury will present finalists and winners with their awards. In conjunction with this event, a storytelling competition will be held, similar to a poetry slam, where performers will compete in front of a panel of judges.
Awards: 1st Prize=$300.00 | 2nd Prize=$150.00 | 3rd Prize=$ 50.00 [Read More]
