RICK SILVA INAUGURATES NEW DTD SERIES "FRIDAY FLASH" JULY 13TH AT 6PM

The Denver Theatre District in conjunction with Plus Gallery curators Ivar Zeile and Ryan Pattie launch an exciting new series on the 14th and Champa LED screen this Friday evening at 6pm.  "Friday Flash"  will be an ongoing 30 minute showcase for motion-based artworks for public viewing on select Friday's throughout the year.  Rick Silva initiates "Friday Flash" this Friday evening with two sublime works, his ten minute "Massif" followed by "Phil Morton Colorful Colorado (Rick Silva's 2011 Remix)"  which clocks in at 24 minutes.  Both works will highlight the possibilities of this new paradigm for public art that is based on new media and motion-based art.  Rick Silva was born in Brazil, is currently based out of Canada, and soon to be splitting his time between Oregon and Colorado. He's also one of the featured artists in the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art's current exhibition "Visual Rhythm," on view through September 9th, 2012. In other words he's the perfect artist to initiate our series. Visit Denver's most impressive outdoor viewing screen at 6pm on the street and sidewalks of 14th and Champa in downtown Denver to see, in the most luminous fashion, where new-media art is today.
