I Learned it by Watching You ~ Crewest Gallery



September 6th 2008 7pm

Crewest Gallery Presents
Syndrome
"I Learned It By Watching You"

An observation of the effects of mass media on the public. The show's name was inspired by a popular, Reagan era PSA that aired on American television during the late 1980s. The concept behind each piece of art will range from playful satire to intense realism; each representing a different take on the influence media has on our lives and opinions. The execution is an intricate mixed media process bridging traditional art forms with digital tools.

About Syndrome:
Syndrome-comprised of artists Micah Hancock, James Larese and Mars Sandoval-began as an LA-based art collective showing in galleries in NYC and LA. Syndrome then went on to start a creative boutique under the same name. They now specialize in live-action directing for commercials, music videos and broadcast.

Music by: DJ DAZ (Umoja Soundsystem, Los Angeles)
