Eye Candy: Kalup Linzy at EAI



Kalup Linzy, Keys to Our Heart, 2008. 4-minute preview.

Electronic Arts Intermix will present a free screening and talk with artist Kalup Linzy (whose work is now available through EAI) on Wednesday, January 14 at 6:30 pm.

The evening will include the New York premier of Linzy's new video, Keys To Our Heart, which was created for Prospect.1 New Orleans. The artist stars in this black-and-white narrative as a misanthropic grande dame who dispenses advice to a trio of troubled young lovers. Linzy, who performs all of the characters' dialogue, shot and directed Keys To Our Heart in the style of a Hollywood melodrama. The piece was commissioned by Creative Capital.

Linzy will also screen two recent works, Melody Set Me Free (2007) and SweetBerry Sonnet (Remixed) (2008), followed by a Q&A.
