21 Grand presents the 2nd Illuminated Corridor, the next step in
outdoor cinema, featuring live media, music, and interdisciplinary
performances at a parking lot at 3rd St. and Clay St. in Downtown
Oakland. This event is a benefit for 21 Grand in honor of its 5th
Anniversary.

21 Grand teams up with the Illuminated Corridor to present an outdoor
media art and performance event as a benefit for 21 Grand, in
celebration of its 5th Anniversary. This event features works by over
30 artists and groups and serves as a survey of experimental
approaches to time-based media art. Works range from site-aware video
projection, works for time-based media and dance, to experimental
music accompanying film. It is a highly public presentation of
artists and work often found within the walls of galleries, clubs,
and alternative arts spaces.

Curated by Suki O'Kane and 21 Grand, artists include: Cinepimps with
Lumper/Splitter, Youth Sounds, Jorge Boehringer, Kristin Miltner,
Matt Volla, Karla Milosevich, dud, Dean Santomieri, Big City

About the Corridor
The Illuminated Corridor is a next step in outdoor cinema: a nomadic
public art installation focusing on the diverse traditions of Bay
Area film and live music. Working with unlikely natural and built
spaces, The Illuminated Corridor's aim is to catalyze site-specific
work, showcase diverse collaborations between performative
projectionists and performing artists, and cover a vast territory of
film and music genres.

About 21 Grand
21 Grand is a volunteer-run interdisciplinary arts space hell-bent on
presenting a macrocosmic panoply of emerging and experimental
artists, focusing on genre-bending and innovative works of visual
arts and live art (i.e. performative and media art presented to a
live audience). 21 Grand was founded in June 2000, and held its
first show on July 15, 2000 at its eponymous location (21 Grand
Ave.). Since then, 21 Grand has attempted to provide a consistent
platform for experimental arts and fill the void of experimental arts
presentation in the East Bay. 21 Grand has since played host to some
of the most ambitious new works that realm has to offer, with
programming that has been much lauded and emulated.
