KATRINA DEL MAR – ‘SUMMER SANG IN ME’<\/h2>\n

March 7-28 2014
\nOpening Reception Friday March 7 2014, from 6-9pm<\/p>\n

Strange Loop Gallery invites you to: Summer Sang in Me<\/em>, a solo exhibition featuring photographs, videos and zines by New York-based artist Katrina del Mar.<\/p>\n

Summer Sang In Me<\/em> is a compilation of Katrina del Mar’s intimate photographi<\/a>c and video portraits of lovers, ex lovers, close friends and beautiful strangers. Entwined with self-portraits and elemental landscapes, these images map out the semi-fictional road trip of her life. In no particular order Del Mar is an artist, photographer, human being, lover. Her style is realistic\/romantic; messy at times, tactile, beautiful, and gritty. Her pictures are foremost captured with a taste and passion for life in general, and for women in all their individuality of beauty and power in particular.<\/p>\n

Reading like an unbound, semi-fictive yet very personal journal, the images, video clips and zines make up a story of restlessness, a study in fascination verging on obsession. The insistent drive to hold onto remnants of people so as not to lose their memory results in a type of souvenir collecting of a most personal nature, and a longer temporal narrative emerges which sees participants striding in and out of the story sometimes once, sometimes many times.This exhibition serves up a softer, more romantic side of del Mar\u2019s work, although the tough girl aesthetic clearly shines on in a series of images of planned bruises and fight-club aftermath, where tough girls proudly display evidence of their damage alongside evidence of unbridled lust.<\/p>\n

“Katrina Del Mar has been active in underground film, photography and erotic fiction for two decades, and her vision is as transcendent as it is transgressive.” – Carlo McCormick, Photograph Magazine<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Any effort to map Katrina Del Mar\u2019s cross-genre oeuvre within the contemporary art or film worlds would run the risk of missing its epic nature.” – Jenifer P Borum<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

PS: This is also the last opening at our gallery: we will be closing our doors April 1st, so don’t miss it!<\/p>\n
