Black Thorns in the Black Box

*A film screening curated by Amelia Ishmael and Bryan Wendorf*

*to occur in conjunction with “Black Thorns in the White Cube”*

*an exhibition of Black Metal inspired art*



Amelia Ishmael, curator of the gallery exhibition* *“Black Thorns in the
White Cube,” and Bryan Wendorf, co-founder and programmer of the Chicago
Underground Film Festival, invite you to submit works for consideration to
“Black Thorns in the Black Box,” a screening of Black Metal inspired films
to take place in conjunction with the “Black Thorns in the White Cube”
exhibitions.



This screening will contribute to an international discourse currently
occurring in Black Metal theory that examines the innovations and
significance of contemporary Black Metal art, and offers an account of the
critical disruptions taking place as this historical Norwegian musical
subgenre transforms into a language of contemporary art. Practicing a
transmodality between sound and vision, and pushing the limits of
contemporary academic genres by definition, “Black Thorns in the Black Box”
will feature a mutual blackening of art and metal.
