The Arena, Everyday People, Trillectro, & Electric Circus Present: Crosstown Cookout
The premise of a cookout is simple: come as you are, eat what you want, drink a lil bit, and dance a lotta bit. Crosstown Cookout is a collaboration of party crews from near and far coming together to turn up under the sun for one last time before the summer comes to a close. Expect heavy helpings of community vibes, hip hop and global beats spun by NYC’s best, delicious food by the Drive Change crew, and maybe even a pop-up performance by a VERY special guest.
Wastedland 2 is a detritus-strewn, site-specific, immersive film installation transforming spaces into a three-dimensional post-apocalyptic graffiti wonderland. Questions of fate and self will collide with graffiti folk lore through wordplay, sculpture, artifacts, and characters – all centered around thematics from the existential fantasy film of the same name. Created by Andrew H. Shirley, and his actors and members of the notorious Brooklyn-based 907 graffiti crew – this environment allows the viewer to enter the psychology of the narrative, to identify and ultimately re-define the way one traditionally engages with film and artwork.

Following its debut in Detroit last September, Wastedland 2 has spent the past year touring across the U.S., featuring artists and new material specific to each location. This event at Knockdown Center will be the culmination and a celebration of that national tour.
About Wastedland 2
Shirley’s Wastedland 2 (30 min/ Color/ 2016) follows three solitary vandals (played by Wolftits, Avoid, and Smells) who cross paths while searching for the meaning of a trail of enigmatic artworks left behind by UFO 907, another nomadic artist. Roaming from one decaying zone to the next in a never-ending search for beer, weed and a wall to paint, the vandals form a pact with the rest of the surviving seekers (played by other recognized graffiti artists Rambo, Noxer, EKG, and others) to attain the answer to their unanimous question of their futility- “what’s the point?” www.wastedland2.com
