Political Minded Artwork
Obama – Hope and Change 2008
Noam Chomsky – 2003
Rene Lévesque – 2004
Angela Davis – 2004
Paul Krugman – 2004
Past pieces by the HVW8 Art Installation for it’s Political Minded series.
Art and Politics are tricky bedfellows, which is again demonstrated in the controversy over the role of the NEA and the promotion of policy objectives. The role of art in politics isn’t truly defined, but its presence is regularly invited and appreciated. HVW8 works to open dialogue and to include those in the conversation that will be impacted. We can only note that completely shutting the door rather than keeping that conversation open derides youth involvement.
(For the record we’re Canadian and don’t qualify for NEA funding).

Dutch artist Parra is set to emark on his very first exhibition and pop-up shop initiative in Germany later this month. An artist who’s style has come to be known for his eclectic mix of type fonts, iconic colors and sexualized imagery, the Amsterdam-based creative will look to have his work displayed first via an exhibition at Pool Gallery in Berlin followed by a pop-up shop at Wood Wood Berlin two days later. Aside from his own personal artwork, he has also become heavily involved in music act Le Le.

Once again gracing the HVW8 stage, originally coming from that special place between Long Beach and Los Angeles (Hawthorne, Ca), we have the Hawthorne Headhunters. Recorded live at the HVW8 Art + Design Gallery.

In the mix we hear full tracks from the current Hawthorne Headhunters EP release along with bits of solo material, inspirations for future work and, until now, unreleased works being refined for future projects with HVW8 Records.
You heard it here first.
Full track listing available soon.
