Arts Today in Stranger Suggests

Posted by on April 13 at 9:30 AM

An Evening of Sin
(ART) An Evening of Sin revolves around Franz von Stuck’s most famous painting, the 1893 femme fatale nude Sin, which is just luscious and ridiculous enough to have made great album art for the right ’80s hair band. Stranger Genius Award winner Victoria Haven will talk, choreographer Zoe Scofield and her dancers will perform, and poets and breakdancers will join in. I only wish they were taking confessions, too. (Frye Art Museum, 704 Terry Ave, 922-6250. 7 pm, free.) JEN GRAVES

Future So Bright: A Film with Live Soundtrack by Matt McCormick

(HAPPENING) This event has trouble describing itself. According to the invitation, it is a “maelstrom” in “a cathedralesque barn of a space” with a “steaming sulfuric acid bath.” Matt McCormick plays a new music and video piece. Matthijs Bouw gives a slide talk, Michael Brophy’s paintings are auctioned, DJ Masa mixes, and the few who made reservations eat dinner. (Chateaux [sic] Duwamps, 207 S Horton St. Dinner at 7, register at onepot.org. Auction/party at 8, no registration required. The invitation says: “Money will be recycled at the door.” We’re not sure what that means.) JEN GRAVES
