April 2007 "Blaster" afterparty w/ Alan Oldham aka DJ T-1000 (Tresor/Pure Sonik/xfive) + Chroma S. (Electronic Roots Berlin) and friends Raumklang, Libauerstr.1. Friedrichshain ABOUT THE ARTIST London's Muzik magazine has called ALAN D. OLDHAM "Detroit Techno's Renaissance Man," having made his name throughout the '90s as the owner of the Generator, Pure Sonik, and xfive labels, international techno DJ (under the stage name DJ T-1000), and electronic musician. During that time, however, Oldham was also an accomplished illustrator, responsible for the graphic direction of the Netherlands-based Djax-Up-Beats record label, as well as logos, label art and album covers for such electronic music labels as Transmat, KMS, Plus 8, Astralwerks, !K7, New Religion, and many others. In 2005, inspired by his art heroes Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, and Patrick Nagel, the autodidact began producing large-scale, Pop Art-inspired gallery works to great response. He decided that idealized, hyper-stylized superwomen would be his main subjects. "Females are just more interesting to paint," Oldham says. "I've been blessed to have been surrounded by strong, sexy women in my life and career. Capturing their energy on canvas is a challenge." The Chicago-and-Berlin-based Oldham calls his latest show of paintings and drawings "Blaster" because of the comic-book inspired color and energy of this series of works. "Blaster" is also the name of his latest DJ T-1000 EP on Tresor, his longtime musical home. Oldham, recently featured in the electronic music DVD magazine SLICES, has shown his paintings at the Open Door Gallery in Chicago, Le Fromager restaurant/gallery in Paris, the Crewest Gallery in Los Angeles, and most recently at the No Friction Cafe in Chicago. "Blaster" is his Berlin gallery debut. <http://www.alanoldham.com>www.alanoldham.com <http://www.puresonikrecords.net>www.puresonikrecords.net <http://www.digitalsweatshop.blogspot.com>www.digitalsweatshop.blogspot.com <http://www.myspace.com/blackmanfromthefuture>www.myspace.com/blackmanfromthefuture Mit vielen Grssen Jacek Slaski ---------------------------- Galerie ZERO Kpenicker Str.4 10997 Berlin Tel.: 030 7407 3309 Fax.: 030 7407 3310 Mobil.: 0177 2966 833 <>www.zero-project.org -- rohrpost - deutschsprachige Liste zur Kultur digitaler Medien und Netze Archiv: http://www.nettime.org/rohrpost http://post.openoffice.de/pipermail/rohrpost/ Ent/Subskribieren: http://post.openoffice.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rohrpost/
