A retrospective look at the Cacophony Society, a national collective of guerrilla artists, dada pranksters, and various eccentrics pursuing "experiences beyond the mainstream." Dedicated to activities mocking societal expectations, sacred cows, and good taste, The Cacophony Society evolved from the San Francisco Suicide Club and its members were chief organizers of the Burning Man Festival in Northern Nevada. The Society's pranking served as inspiration for the activities of Project Mayhem in Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club.
The exhibition is held in conjunction with a sneak preview of the documentary "Into the Zone: The Story of the Cacophony Society" at Santa Ana's Yost Theater. (Details TBA. See www.intothezonemovie.com)
Show runs through April 15.
Other opening night performances, special events TBA.
