My Barbarian

3/18/2010 6:00pm - 10:00pm at SFMOMA

Museum-wide
6:00 p.m. - 9:45 p.m.
7:00 p.m. Long Play: Bruce Conner and the Singles Collection screening
9:00 p.m. Performance by My Barbarian

Whether re-establishing pagan rites in the desert, creating a song cycle for cross-dressing sailors and sequined mermen, or buying a young artist's soul (the better to sing about her sculptures), L.A.-based band My Barbarian (Malik Gaines, Jade Gordon, and Alexandro Segade) mixes history, myth, and politics to create flamboyant performance work. Tonight, My Barbarian plays with an eye to the atrium and rock opera. Before the performance, we screen selected works from Long Play by Bruce Conner, Cory Arcangel, Dara Birnbaum, Anne Colvin, Christian Marclay, and Pipilotti Rist. The evening also includes hors d'ouevres and a cash bar.
