Please join us for THE ROCK CYCLE, a collaborative performance Saturday, April 8, 2023, 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM.

The Rock Cycle is a collaboration between the poet Josh Ascherman and the visual artist Ali Vaughan. Last year, they began a series of conversations initiated by a group of graphite drawings Vaughan had produced in 2021. The drawings originated from Vaughan’s interest in her upbringing in California’s Central Valley and the resonances of the existing oil and gas industries. In response to the drawings and regular conversations with Vaughan, Ascherman wrote a longform, durational—but fragmentary—poem. The drawings and writing will eventually be combined into an artist book.

In reading from The Rock Cycle, Ascherman and Vaughan hope to realize the form of their collaboration. Rather than simply reading the text written for the project, this performance evokes the landscape of shared references between the two artists. Like the real world natural process that shares this piece’s name, Ascherman and Vaughan think of their dynamic as an open, continuing process—not a single fragment of writing or a drawing in graphite, but an ongoing system of changes.

Free. All are welcome.

Doors open at 10:30. A limited run of The Rock Cycle zines will be available to those in attendance. Light refreshments served.

We are thrilled to share @galleryram with you all. Please join us tonight from 5-8 pm for the opening reception of THE WILDS.

Regular hours begin tomorrow:
Thur/Fri 11-5 pm
Sat 11-4 pm
OR BY APPOINTMENT

The exhibition's title references the Eve Babitz essay, written in 1978, about Bakersfield.

Here's how it begins...we can't wait to see you all. 🐏

“What I want to do is, one Saturday, we’ll wrap all our troubles in dreams and get in the car (you drive), and I’ll take you on my glorious Weekend in THE WILDS of Kern County.

The first thing we do when we get to Bakersfield is we check into the “World's Oldest Motel, “ the Bakersfield Inn, which sometimes looks even better than the Beverly Hills Hotel. But CHeaper. You can get a gigantic room with two queen-size beds and a dueña room in the front where you enter, so someone can stay up and drink and watch TV while the other person sleeps–anyway, there’s Neutrogena in the shower–and it only costs fifteen dollars a night. There are two pools and lots of those tall skinny palm trees, and Bakersfield has a smog problem so that sunsets around there are just heaven.

When night falls we’ll go to a Basque restaurant, stuff ourselves and go dancing at The Blackboard. And in the morning we’ll have brunch at the Bakersfield Inn, where tons of biscuits and gravy and chicken and scrambled eggs and bacon and just everything including champagne is only about five dollars. We’ll have fun.

DRAWING EXPLORATION: OBSERVATION, IMAGINATION, AND MEMORY

TEENS! Join us for a three-week drawing intensive before the New Year that will cover the basics of drawing in contemporary art. Classes will each be two hours long and broken into three themes: drawing from observation, imagination, and memory. We will discover contemporary artists who use these specific approaches towards drawing in their own work and then participate in unconventional drawing-based activities meant to build students’ drawing skills, help them discover their own unique style of drawing, develop ideas through imagination, and question how drawing can be used as a tool to understand better and investigate the world. Contact Gisela at youtharts@kala.org.

10% multi-session / sibling discount and tuition assistance available.

Grades: 6th-12th

Tuition: $180
Location: Kala Gallery & Classroom
Instructor: Ali Vaughan
3 Classes
Tuesday, Nov 29, 2022 — Dec 13, 2022
4PM — 6PM
Materials fee included.
