On Friday, 6 November 2009, NEDA ABGHARI will introduce her portrait series, a selection of Atlanta’s hottest DJs and producers photographed in their studios with their favorite childhood objects. Notable talents include Dres the Beatnik, Le Castle Vania, Rasta Root, Rob Wonder, Vicki Powell, and many more. Neda is seeking to personally, through an open forum with her community; successfully bridge the gap between the creative realms of the city of Atlanta through photography and its diversity.
The Atlanta Creatives Project (www.theatlantacreatives.org) is a photographic documentation of Atlanta's creative core. For years, Atlanta has been home to many inspired individuals who enrich our experiences and everyday lives within the city. The project will serve the purpose of placing faces with the many names. All facets of the city's creative underground will be explored by this is a never-ending visual history of our great city. The exhibition includes more than 30 portraits of Atlanta's elite music scene of producers, DJ's and more. These artists are those who have influenced Atlanta's music, both past and present. On display in the small gallery are portraits of Atlanta musicians: Adron, Black Lips, Butch Walker, Cartel, Deerhunter, Prefuse 73, The Selmanaires, and Snowden.
Meet your favorite DJ's and enjoy an evening of music, photography cocktails and hors
d’oeuvres that will be an experience that elevates and unifies Atlanta's arts and entertainment industry and community. The soundtrack will be provided by Cullen, Kai Alce, DJ Kemit, Kevin O, Injex and DJ Trauma.
This looks like its going to be the place to be Friday night for us non-clubbing-all-the-got-damn-time folks.
