NewVillager w/ Holy MTN at Metro Gallery :: 9/15

NewVillager - http://billions.com/newvillager

NewVillager are multi-media artists from San Francisco and New York. The two founding members, Ben Bromley and Ross Simonini create new pop music as a means of illustrating the NewVillager mythology, a system of thinking, which is partially "found" and partially created by the group and their collaborators. In an interview with the band, they describe their mythos as, "not a story, but a lens to look at the world. It's a ten-part framework of understanding the process of transformation, in an abstract sort of way. How does an object or a person or an idea go from one state to another state? It's a question everybody asks any time anyone tries to create anything and the mythology is just our attempt at answering it." NewVillager represents the mythology through symbols, drawings, photographs, film, and installations, all of which are documented on their website (www.newvillager.org).
