Program, Renée Stout: Church of The Crossroads, 2006

Renée Stout, Studio at 620, Renée Stout, Evelyn Craft, Sànóyęmi A. Ògúnsànyà, and Greg Staley

The concept of the crossroads is fundamental to the work in our latest exhibition, Church of the Crossroads. Renée Stout utilizes her skills as a photo-realist painter to imbue her mixed-media works and installations with socio-historical critiques, vodou imagery, and elements of Yoruba, Creole and African-American culture. In a uniquely informed voice, Stout masterfully blends Old World traditions with contemporary and personal issues to create profound statements on the often tense intersection between society, theology, and political forces.

Studio at 620, T. Scott Wooten, Steve Garland, Quirky White Chicks, and Renegade Theatre Project

Mr. Beckett’s play ponders the basic questions of life: If you could change one choice in your past, what would it be? How would your life have been different? What is the price of regret? Beckett’s “everyman” looks back and peers into the mirror of love lost and a life squandered, observing his recorded history at the end of his life.

The play is starring Steve Garland as "Krapp."

Bob Devin Jones, Studio at 620, and Neverne Covington

The work of Neverne Covington’s is an ecology of near dream landscapes, of Paradise regained, lost and re-found among the anthropomorphic and the ironic. The playful intersection of what you imagined your mother told to you, and the evidence of the things not seen of what she actually said.

Thrill to classic films, live radio dramas and a presentation of graphic novels - all of which incorporate this dark artistic side of society...

Studio@620, one of the area’s newest cultural and artistic endeavours, expands its cutting edge programming to include a slate of over 20 films culled from the golden age of film noir.

Included in the lineup are classics such as Double Indemnity and The Big Sleep, and lesser known examples of the genre, like Detour, the classic B-film directed by cult director Edgar G. Ulmer, which has been cited by filmmakers such as Godard and Luc Bresson as an example of sublime filmmaking. A selection of international films are included, including the opening night film, Rififi, the classic French caper by Jules Dassin that was banned for 30 years due to its explicit drug use, violence and a groundbreaking 17 minute silent sequence that depicts in real time how to pull off a jewelry heist. An evening of Japanese film noir encompasses 40 years in two films: Akira Kurosawa’s 1949 masterpiece Stray Dog, and Takeshi “Beat” Kitano’s hyper-stylized “Violent Cop” from 1989.
