    Nova

    Art & Music Show @ 6:00 PM

    Pigments of the Imagination

          On July 2nd, 2009, a new type of art/music show is launching in San Pedro, Ca in union with the 1st Thursday Art Walk of San Pedro. The Croatian Cultural Center of Greater Los Angeles is proud to present Nova an Art & Music experience curated by Lisa Rosso “Nyla”. Nova will inspire the viewer to question, evolve and appreciate the beauty in art, music and dance. Creating a one of a kind cultural experience. The passion behind Nova is awakening the new generation and expressing themselves through art.

          Nova will be showcasing the art of emerging artists: Chris Blandino, John Hicks, Stan Resnicoff, Eric Bangle, Taylor Bos, Erol Carlson “Ero” and Lisa Rosso “Nyla” .The art will be displayed to the sounds of Bossacucanova music, which is a modern version of Brazilian bossanova. Brazilian “Capoeira” dancers will intrigue the viewers with the Afro-Brazilian art form the combines the elements of martial arts, music, games and dance. 

          A drum circle will be part of the event brought to us by “Free to be me Drum Circle” a non-profit all volunteer group (freetobemedrumcircle.com). Stan Resnicoff will also present a lecture on “Common Drawing”, which is the combination of exercise and art. “Common Drawing” uses your body as a drawing tool. By combining full extension movements (jumping, squatting, bending etc.) at different rates and starting points, an entire ‘library of graphic expressions can be created, and endless combinations explored’.
