12th annual DAMNED Exhibition – “The Darkness”

On October 24th through 26th 2019 in Detroit comes the 12th annual assemblage of extraordinary local and international artists to display their most introspective creations at:

?????? – ?? ?????????? ?? ??????????? ????????

From the infamous to the freshest of local and international talent, this prodigious congregation will allow us a glimpse within the diverse shadows of id and ego…of overall mind and encompassing soul guaranteed to intrigue, disturb, inspire or repulse. Rising from within the ashes of Detroit’s historic institution of Devil’s Night, this is not Halloween-themed art but an immersion within the immeasurable realms of consciousness through an elegant ambiance of live ethereal music and cirque/butoh-inspired performances.

There are 3 nights of DAMNED, each with its own distinct theme for the ambiance and performances that flourish within the exhibition:

– ??? ??/?? “??? ????????” – A night of introspective exploration within the shadowed and primal essence of self. This opening night features an intimate VIP Preview/Artist Reception, an absinthe tasting, an on-site chef preparing hot hors d’œuvres and experimental aerial and butoh-inspired performances.

– ??? ??/?? “??? ?????????????” – A night of the extrospective self enlightened through light, fire and the ethereal. This gala night features an on-site chef preparing a sampling of internationally-inspired tapas with flavored mead tasting and exotic fire, aerial and experimental performances.

– ??? ??/?? “??? ??????????” – A festive celebration through a menagerie of exotic cirque, sensual rhythms and masquerade. This closing night features the formal mask-mandatory masquerade ball, multiple-dish strolling dinner with live chefs, sensuous dance performance interludes, the aural ambiance of DJs Josh Burge (Plastic Passion) and Slofu (Happy Endings) and a menagerie of strolling cirque performers all night.

For 2019, the DAMNED talented lists of performers include Satori Circus, Detroit Circus, Jade Ashekerra, Shadowe Feuer, Jennabelle Feuer, Stella Isis Rothe and Rocky Raquel, accompanied with live aural ambiance by Dixon’s Violin and Marcus Concernicus.

????? ????: For Thursday and Friday, there are no dress codes but dressy red and/or black is welcomed. For Saturday’s Masquerade Ball, proper attire and mask are MANDATORY. See website for details and visual samples.

Detroit Krampusnacht Parade 2019

The mythical holiday beast is getting ready to prowl the dark streets of Detroit…lurking through a neighborhood near you…

With large curling horns protruding from his head, displaying the half-goat, half-demon creature that is Krampus.

Krampus leaves his lair on the night of Friday December 6th 2019 and will follow old St Nick toward the festivities of the evening. To balance Nicks treatment of the naughty boys and girls perhaps? While St. Nick is giving out candy, be careful because Krampus is known to beat children who misbehave or to stuff them into his sack for a later snack.

The Krampus spirit has been in Detroit for the last 9 years with the annual Krampus Night 9 – A Holiday-ish Charity Extravaganza! that features a badly rehearsed holiday-ish variety show, festive-ish film shorts, the Naughty List Bazaar, bad gingerbread house competition, fugly sweater contest and, most importantly, a charity toy and food card drive for Toys For Tots and Burners Without Borders Detroit. And added this year, a parade!

Who will be in the Krampusnacht Parade? YOU! We are inviting Krampuses, Perchten and all creatures alike to join us as we revel in the streets! And to top things off, we are hosting a Krampus Costume Contest (details further below). However, you do not need to participate in the contest to join the revelry.

The parade start location is 715 E Milwaukee Street in Detroit and begins at 7pm, ending around 9pm. It is free to participate, watch and enjoy.

STAY TUNED AND GET INVOLVED

SEE! YOU! THERE!

KRAMPUS COSTUME CONTEST DETAILS

There will be 4 points the judges will base their decisions upon the best Krampus. The judges will have an understanding of the folklore and the long running tradition of this event and take the following points into consideration:

  • Authenticity – Materials used, aesthetic points hit, attention to folklore details.
  • Nightmare Fuel – How much will it keep you from sleeping at night.
  • Craftsmanship – How much blood, sweat and tears you put into this.
  • Embodiment – A good costume is nothing without performance.

In order to be in the Costume Contest you must sign up at 6:30pm before the parade to be considered for judging. The parade is from 7 to 9pm and you will be judged during that time. At 9pm(ish) the winner will be announced!

The prizes? $200 for 1st, $75 for 2nd and $25 for 3rd!
