The Upcoming Exhibition Movie Night Explores The Impact Of Film

Most of us can vividly remember our moviegoing experiences. The smell of buttery popcorn that fills the entryway. The folding red-cushioned chairs that have become synonymous with theaters. The shushing from other patrons as the lights begin to dim. The flick of the big screen as previews begin rolling. And, finally, the first bars of music as the production studio intros come on the screen to greet the viewer into their 90-plus-minute escape. As we sit and watch, we are transported to other worlds that when the credits roll instantly spark conversation whether we are thrilled with what we just saw or ambivalent. The characters and scenes can be relatable moments to our own lives, or things that have captivated our attention and allowed for engagement with bigger communities. Superhero and fantasy movies often strike mass fanfare, resulting in comic conventions and people anticipating sequels or larger series of films. There are classics recognized for the brilliant acting or technological advances that solidify their place within popular culture.

Living the Dream

Counterintuitively, David Gluck was a painter before taking up tattooing little more than a decade ago. While skin is a completely different substrate and ink a far cry from oil paint, the skills must be transferrable to some degree because there is a wait-time of nine months to get an appointment with him.
