BRING IT! Performance Art Series: David Szlasa

Description

Join us August 20th for Life of Leo by David Szlasa as part of the BRING IT! Performance Art Series.

The second installment of Life of Leo, where artist David Szlasa re-stages Leonardo DiCaprio films, with himself recast in DiCaprio’s role and recorded in front of an audience. Performed in front of a green screen, the artist recasts himself as Jack Dawson in Titanic, layered back into the film in real-time opposite Kate Winslet. Audience members are able to experience both realities, the artist acting in front of a camera, and simultaneously the post-production “Hollywood” version alongside. Explore issues of copyright and ownership as artist David Szlasa pushes the boundaries of “fair use” and appropriation in his attempt to “take back” Hollywood and push for wider acceptance of Creative Commons and open source media content.
