Each Culture & Cocktails evening offers a chance to see art from a new perspective\, spark meaningful dialogue and connect more deeply with the works on view. \nThis evening\, photographer and musician Clint Maedgen joins Richard McCabe\, Curator of Photography\, for a deep dive into Maedgen’s photographs on view in The Unending Stream: Chapter II\, his signature photographic technique and the role that music plays in his work. \n$20 members / $25 not-yet-members \nRegister \n\nAbout Clint Maedgen \nClint Maedgen is a photographer and musician from New Orleans\, Louisiana. He works in color using continuous strips of 35mm film fused with the delicate layering of subtle tones and dynamic urban themes\, a technique he has been developing for decades. His intention is to impress upon the viewer an initial sense of wonder\, curiosity\, joy and playfulness through a provocative visual commentary on modern culture. Maedgen’s images reframe the familiar and everyday within unexpected contexts\, reflecting his vision of a world in constant motion. In addition to being a photographer\, Maedgen has enjoyed a prolific career as a professional musician in New Orleans for over 30 years. He was the frontman for the rock band Liquidrone from 1992 through 2004 and the creator of the interactive theatrical cabaret\, game show and musical band\, The New Orleans Bingo! Show from 2001 through 2012. Maedgen is also a member of the legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band\, with whom he has traveled the world for twenty years and counting. He is currently releasing his own brand of original\, eclectic music under his name as a singer/songwriter. You can find his entire music catalog at Bandcamp.com and all streaming apps. \nArtist Statement \nMy art is a collage of very specific images that insist on being part of the larger story that I am committing to film. All of my images are shot with continuous film and the finished work emerges organically as a result of careful timing. There is no digital image manipulation involved. These treasures are often found in the most unusual of places. I’ve learned to keep my camera with me at all times\, always prepared to participate in the magic of synchronicity. My Lomo camera is the ultimate instrument for my storytelling – it continues to surprise me in its interpretation of what I’m capturing. It is a crucial part of my process. My excursions feel like a scavenger hunt\, with hidden gems around every corner. You will find me somewhere among abandoned gas stations and subway systems\, graffitied streets and advertising hubs\, foreign elevators and shadows\, collecting and conjuring these patterns and shapes and blending them all together. Welcome to the world as I see it!
