Kirk Ke Wang Installation @ HCC Ybor "Sugar Bomb" -

[I have already seen this...and it's well worth seeing.]

Tampa, FL--HCC’s Ybor School of Visual and Performing Arts Gallery presents a site-specific installation by artist Kirk Ke Wang born in Shanghai, China. Wang, Professor of Visual Arts at Eckerd College, is a painter, sculptor, photographer, mixed media artist and educational software developer. This project, “Sugar Bomb,” was inspired by the artist’s recent travel to Cuba, his memory of enjoying Cuban brown sugar during the cold war time in China, and the connections Ybor City has with Cuba.

The installation will run Aug 26-Sept 30, 2013. An Artist’s Reception will take place Thursday, Sept 12, 5:00 to 8:00pm with a Power Point presentation in the Mainstage Theatre at 6:30pm. The gallery and theatre are located in the Performing Arts Building, Palm Ave and 15th Street. All events are free and open to the public.

The Grifters - “Put simply, though, it is the best thing that ever happened to internet graffiti media: an original photoblog, showing the lifestyle of graffiti writers around our social circle. The focus is on everything that we do before and after the final product – the graffiti piece – is created.”
