Public Healing at Golden Belt
Aug 21 2009, Posted by Claire Finch in Art, Playground, 1 Comments
If you’re curious to see precisely what happens when “free spirits and able bodies” unite in the name of group healing, check out Golden Belt’s upcoming third Friday, themed “A Night of Public Healing.” At the event’s epicenter is a new exhibition by Carrboro-based artist Amanda Barr.
A final display of the Branch Gallery legacy, the exhibition promises an insightful and oft-humorous excursion into the human body, showcasing Barr’s trademark melange of craft materials and imaginative wit. A one-time in-site performance at the opening will allow Third Friday revelers to become a part of Barr’s vibrant creative vision.
Those who enjoy being submerged in sound sans-earplugs should head to Khristian Weeks’ sound installation, unrelenting IS. Spoken text, music, drones and other dynamic ephemera reverberate and resonate in an artfully constructed space.
Finally, dress comfortably to capitalize on the free Nia lessons. A hybrid of dance, martial arts and healing arts, Nia helps the body attain maximum pleasure and health. Results are said to be life-altering!
When: Tomorrow (Aug 21) 6-9 p.m.
Where: Golden Belt; Barr’s Public Healing is in Building 3, room 100; unrelenting IS is in Building 2, floor 2; Nia is in Building 6

Me thinks someone is fast and loose with their, hmm, borrowing inspiration from other places:
“the exhibition promises an insightful and oft-humorous excursion into the human body, showcasing Barr’s trademark melange of craft materials and imaginative wit.”
And from:
http://www.goldenbeltarts.com/newsEvents_Details.php?event_id=59
“The resulting works are vibrant reflections of the artist’s vivid imagination, demonstrating not only dexterity with a range of materials but also an insightful wit.”
Next time, just block quote instead of rearranging word order and right-click-synonym-replace.
