The last roadtrip
Mama and Planet Art, Amsterdam
We invite you to visit our booth at the Kunstvlaai 4 / Amsterdam. Mama,
showroom for media and moving art (Rotterdam) and Planet Art (Hengelo)
present an installation by Arno Coenen, named "THE LAST ROADTRIP" the
result of an 8 month residency in LA and a roadtrip through the US of A.
Coenen working as a techno-nomad with a laptop and videorecorder kept a
visual diary. Mixing video-fragments, paper traces and animations Coenen
satirises the system '...and all that other crap that inevitably
surrounds you in America'.
This critical and hallucinogenic report projected on the windscreens of
a (real!) Chevy is the main ingredient of the installation at the
Kunstvlaai. This atrraction with an additional soundscape by dj Dione
(Solid Rocket Boosters) is a must see. So come to Amsterdam and get in
that Chevy & experience your 'last roadtrip'
