Come one, come all! Personality of Cult: Episode Deux is opening TONIGHT at 7:00! The opening gala is free and open to the public, and tickets to the midnight movie, Clerks, will be $6.00. Wine and refreshments will be provided, as well as catering by Eloté. Silent auction begins at 7:00 and ends at 11:00. Awards ceremony at 9:00
Wednesday and Thursday were heavy production mode for the show. Forms, fliers, title cards, gathering pieces, last minute preparations. Thursday, all pieces were due at the Circle Cinema, and everything looks awesome. Our artists have really gone above and beyond the call of duty, and this show will be one for the ages.
This morning is our segment on NewsChannel 8. Once we have a link or embed video of the segment, it'll be posted here. Also, our segment with Up Late with Ben Sumner will be done during the opening, which is perfect because seeing the pieces in any context other than the final product just wouldn't do it justice.
Lots of work to do before curtains up. A full report will be posted on Saturday, after I catch up on some serious sleep.
About Us
Personality of Cult is a collective of Tulsa area artists whose works are devoted to their favorite cult classic films.
The first Personality of Cult exhibit opened in February 2008 and was the largest opening reception in the Circle Cinema Gallery's history. Twenty local artists interpreted their favorite cult films, such as Blade Runner, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and many others, into original works of art in a wide array of media and artistic styles that reflect the artists' unique perspective on the films they love.
Our success with the first exhibit garnered demand for a sequel, and sequels is what we brought. With Personality of Cult: Episode Deux, the theme was focused on cult classic sequels and "franchise" films (films that have spawned at least one sequel or prequel). James Bond, Jaws, The Godfather, Lord of the Rings and other films were interpreted in digital illustration, paint, pen and ink, etc. There was also a special treat in store for Star Wars fans, as several artists in the exhibit each offered a take on their favorite characters.
Up next is Mixtape Art Show, which opens December 4 at the Eclipse in Tulsa and features Tulsa artists take on their favorite songs. Personality of Cult 3-D is scheduled to open in 2010.
