FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Detroit, MI - On Devil's Night (October 30) 2008 at the Tangent
Gallery/Hastings St Ballroom in Detroit, there will be a congregation of 75
of the most malevolent fine art artists from across the nation and overseas
to display over 150 of their darkest of creations at DAMNED: A Macabre Fine
Art Exhibition (www.thatdamnedshow.com
<http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnRoYXRkYW1uZWRzaG93LmNvbS8=> ).
From Oscar winner HR Giger to the freshest of talent, this sinister assembly
will exhibit a diversity of artistries from the deeply depraved to the
intensely introspective guaranteed to intrigue, disturb, captivate or
repulse. This is not Halloween-themed art but a submergence within the
shadowed realms of consciousness within an intimate ambiance of haunting
ethereal soundscapes, refined freakshow vignettes and cirque-inspired stage
performances.
DAMNED will feature special performances by the tantalizing circus hellion
Miss Pussykatt (www.sideshowkitty.com
<http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnNpZGVzaG93a2l0dHkuY29tLw==> )
fresh from her "grinder girl" act on NBC's America's Got Talent. Other
devilish treats include the femme fatale performance troupe Devil Dolls
(www.myspace.com/thedevildolls), new dementias from Satori Circus
(www.myspace.com/satoricircus1988), disturbingly exotic gallery teasers,
Devil Girl hostesses, VIP area with an on-site chef, wine tasting, a gallery
store to purchase art and much more! Aurally, the exhibition will be laced
with original compositions by Life Toward Twilight
(www.myspace.com/lifetowardtwilight) and the haunting solo strings of Dixon
(www.myspace.com/dixonsviolin) accompanying the gallery vignettes.
Limited VIP tickets will be available for a most intimate of ambiances with
a private two-hour preview of the exhibition with artist reception and
special VIP-only vignette performances. Indulgences include an on-site chef
courtesy of Centaur Bar (www.centaurbar.com
<http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmNlbnRhdXJiYXIuY29tLw==> ) with
live preparation of delectable edible temptations, an exotic wine tasting
compliments of Farmington Hills Wine (map
