Ready to go bizarro?

the Hive Gallery opens its 

Bizarro au Gogo and Oz-themed show

featuring the work of many of your friends at IPM.  

Not sure what Bizarro au Gogo even means? 

Well then follow the great words of nobody in particular as quoted from a widely publicized and completely imaginary interview: "If you don't understand what Bizarro au Gogo means, just picture a pretty face... but with puke on it... possibly while in outer space. Also, something about tits. Yeah, totally tits all the time. Well, tits would be nice, anyway." 

Bizarro and Oz-themed show

 if you're a shameless cheapskate and you totally hate art.

If you haven't already, pick up a copy of Bizarro au Gogo, this weekend, 

the book originally put out through Ink Pen Mutations Press. 

"Truly a masterpiece and an offensive eyesore. I feel tingly inside."
~another fake quote regarding Bizarro au Gogo and the sleazy universe of  Cig Neutron. 

Cig Neutron in his Sunday best. Or make that, his Sunday breasts.

Notable participating IPM artists include Ave Rose, Cig Neutron with an installation and as guest curator, KASL,and Ken Dougherty.

Hobimbo, the inspiration for Ave Rose's piece (shown below) and frightened children everywhere.

They say that a life-sized Barbie doll's proportions would make her tip right over.
But Ho-Barbie-bimbo would definitely drop on her ass.

DON'T SLEEP ON THIS SHOW

OR YOU MAY JUST GET PEED ON

SEE YOU THIS WEEKEND!

Unnatural Abduction of the Aliens in Los Angeles... and You

This past Memorial Day weekend was memorable indeed. All new Ave Rose accessories and artwork made their debut, and the turn out was up to snuff more than a Hufflepuff at the Wizard Alley Craft Fair at Whimsic Alley.  Ave Rose also performed an opening operatic aria to launch a bizarre but enticing, philanthropic event of Chessboxing.

What happens to people after experiencing an Ave Rose aria.

But what's on the rise for this weekend with IPM?
Why, aliens, of course.
In good ole Los Angeles.

This Saturday night, the Aliens are hitting LA and joining forces with the Unnatural Alliance for an epic show of music and art, which has been plugged in Los Angeles highlights for weeks--namely the LA Music Blog and the Tool news feed (archives May 8, 2013). Basically, this is going to be an alien interaction of mothership magnitude, so you won't want to miss it. 

Aside from a slew of bands, and a hoard of art from across the Los Angeles County solar system, welcome a  long awaited, dearly hoped for, damned to be decked out Aliens in LA appearance and book signing. Get a copy, bring a copy, or just bring your bad ass on.  Come in costume, or just come.

Got aliens?

Details one more time:

 A new venture in bulb pendants created specifically  for Whimsic Alley

Aside from being your one-stop shop for wands, widgets and wearable art, Whimsic Alley is located in the heart of the Los Angeles Museum Row. Make a memorable memorial day with a weekend of art! (LACMA has a 19th-century compass exhibit, not to mention free jazz.)

Also this weekend, minutes from Whimsic Alley, once the shops shut down and the wizards wind up their wands for the night, join Ave Rose doing an opening opera performance at the culture-clashing, charity-supporting, combat sport known as LA Chessboxing. 

 "Chessboxing is a new sport in which one three-minute round of chess is followed by one three-minute round of boxing and then back to the same chess game against the same opponent. Whoever wins by either checkmate or in the ring first WINS! All events are dedicated to supporting charities and helping people who learn to chessbox become superheroes in their communities by fighting for philanthropy."

Enrich your mind, cheer your sport, and wear your new Ave Rose Art while supporting a cause this Saturday, May 25, 2013, 7-10:30 p.m.
at the Fortune Gym,
7874 Sunset Blvd.

Give a left hook and take out a rook, or at least listen to those lungs!
