FLUX NIGHT 2013

DETAILS

Saturday, October 5, 7 pm to midnight
Castleberry Hill Arts District, Atlanta

a night of art + experimentation

Atlanta’s fourth annual night of art + experimentation, returns to the Castleberry Hill Arts District on Saturday, October 5. This year’s event is curated by Helena Reckitt, an internationally respected curator and critic.

Reckitt’s curatorial theme, Free Association, evokes the pleasure of mixing and mingling at street level that is central to Flux Night, and that car-centric Atlanta does not always afford. It also points to the strong history of digital art and collective activity within the city.

Flux Night 2013 will have two categories of projects: curated projects selected directly by Reckitt and proposed projects selected from an open call for proposals by a committee that will include Reckitt along with Flux Projects staff and board.
