Exhibition

Godzilla vs. Skateboarders: Skateboarding as a critique of social spaces

13 August – 3 October, 2004

Opening Reception 12 August at 8:00 pm

This intriguing exhibition examines “skateboarding as a means to critique architecture, social spaces and the values constituted by those spaces,” according to curator Anthony Kiendl. Mixed-media installations, drawings, models, photographs and video works by artists such as Mowry Baden, Aaron Carpenter, Fastwürms and Sandee Moore (to name a few) explore the culture and practice of skateboarding as a performing, critical art, one which “speaks its meanings... through urban actions.” The exhibition has been organized and circulated by the Dunlop Art Gallery, Regina.
