About the Exhibit<\/b><\/p>\n

Historian Howard Zinn declared Colorado\u2019s historic Ludlow Massacre as “the culminating act of perhaps the most violent struggle between corporate power and laboring men in American history.” As part of the state-wide marking of the 100th anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre, an event that sparked the modern labor movement, GOCA invited six artists to address the concept of protest through their varied artistic practices. Hailing from regional and national locales and contributing photography, mixed-media, video and performance works, the artists are, through their works, expanding upon an historic event.<\/p>\n

In connection with the anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre, Ensemble Peak FreQuency of the UCCS Music Program joins with hardcore Americana folk artist Tim Eriksen, the Ormao Dance Company, Psychoangelo, and UCCS student musicians. The groups will perform with an ear towards social justice and political consciousness, connecting the past, present and future through sound, space, song and movement. This concert will include American folk songs, Louis Andriessen\u2019s \u201cWorker\u2019s Union,\u201d and new works by Psychoangelo, all wrapped in Ormao\u2019s choreography.<\/p>\n
