SHAKE IT UP!
Dance All Night

A Celebration of 80s Vinyl Recordings
produced at Sir George Martin’s Air Studio
on the Caribbean island of Monserrat

Thursday, February 29 | 7:00 – 10:00 pm
South Shore Art Center | 119 Ripley Road, Cohasset
Leap Back to the 80s on Leap Day 2024!

Dance all night, play all day | Don’t let nothin’ get in the way
Dance all night keep the beat | Don’t you worry ’bout two left feet
Shake it up… (The Cars, 1981)

Shake off those winter blues at SHAKE IT UP! On Leap Day 2024, SSAC invites you to leap back in time to the 1980s and dance all night. For one-night-only, our galleries will morph into an 80’s-era Caribbean nightclub. So don those oversized tees and tease your hair or dress as your favorite 1980’s music icon – just make sure you arrive ready to shake it up on the dance floor. Nibbles and beer/wine/specialty rum drinks included.

SHAKE IT UP was inspired by Under the Volcano (2021), that documents the iconic AIR Studios, from which Sir George Martin produced the most iconic sounds from the 1980s, including Duran Duran, Culture Club, Dire Straits and The Police. This music and other hits from MTV’s golden era will be the soundtrack for the evening! Fittingly, all proceeds from SHAKE IT UP will directly support South Shore Art Center’s seminal Artist-in-Residence (or AIR) program which we offer
FREE to 2000 elementary students annually.

AIR –> AIR = a darn good time at SSAC!

Tickets are $ 125.00 per person:

Zach Horn: Saturdays
2024-02-18 - 2024-05-05, 2024-02-18 00:00 - 2024-05-05 23:59 | The Art Complex Museum, 189 Alden Street, Duxbury, 02332, United States
February 18 – May 5, 2024
Reception: February 18, 2024, 1:00 – 4:00 pm

In Horn’s family, they express emotions through what they cook. “I’m the short-order cook in our house,” says Horn. “Part of the way I express love is through food. Pancakes on Saturday are statements. They are my way of saying, ‘I love you’ and ‘I would do anything for you.’”
Mealtime is an artistic theme that goes back to Seurat and Manet, and also to Poussin, Lorraine, and Titian. In this collection of works, Horn wants to make the viewer the protagonist of the scene, showing what a participant in a meal might see: a little food, a little landscape.
Shown: Zach Horn, Butter, still from the video Saturdays, 2023
