OFFSITE EVENT : Machinations in the Library
Saturday, July 26th from 8:00 – 9:30pm
Join us Saturday at the Los Angeles Central Library, as Machine Project artists reimagine and respond to the Library’s space and collections. From a sound and dance improvisation inspired by a photograph of legendary choreographer Bella Lewitzky in the LAPL’s photo collection, to site-specific video installations (including one based on used books unearthed in a library book sale)—these artists will transform various areas of Central Library into an interactive multimedia playground.

Part 1 of 3, Tuesday, July 29th from 7:00 – 10:00pm
