As we announced earlier this year, Wes Bruce and various collaborators have been working on a multifaceted project entitled Structures Poetry Humans. With financial support from the San Diego Foundation and the Lux Art Institute, the culmination of this year long effort will happen on Lux's beautiful Encinitas campus on Thursday, October 25th.
On a clearing perched above Lux's main gallery, Wes has been constructing a large structure made of pallets which will house the project's findings from it's year long exploration into the poetic connection between structures and human beings. Guests are invited to explore the structure between the hours of 5pm and 8pm (it is recommended that you bring a flashlight and hiking shoes).
Pre-sale tickets for the evening can be purchased here, and please take time to explore some beautiful imagery on the SPH site, along with an inspired recording below from Jeff Murray and crew from S. Chaparral. We'll see you on the hill side at Lux Art Institute on Thursday, October 25th!
Also, here's an interview with Wes in this week's Citybeat.

After two incredibly successful openings at Suture Loft in 2010, and Habitat House in 2011, Endless Summer returns this Saturday! The summer-themed group show curated by Sezio collaborator Angella d'Avignon will take on 3rdSpace in University Heights this year. You can expect to see the regular ingredients; a stacked roster of artists, imaginative conceptual pieces, summer-inspired beverages, and solid jams all night.
Speaking of solid jams, the ESIII crew is looking for help curating the evening's soundtrack. So if you want your favorite jam to magically play on the stereo just as you spot the girl of your dreams across the room sipping a white wine spritzer, then email angella@sezio.org and send her that song.
Grab all the details and RSVP on Facebook here, and we'll see you Saturday night! Don't be afraid to dress extra summery for the occasion.
