Pop Smoke: A Veteran Art Exhibition is a survey of veteran artists who utilize bright colors, basic shapes, commonplace images, or repetitive means of production within their art making practice. Several early Pop Movement artists served in the armed forces during WWII and the Korean War, including Roy Lichtenstein, Jasper Johns, and Richard Artschwager. This exhibition is a nod to those early veteran pop artists as we turn our attention to veteran artists who continue to use similar moods. By exploring veteran art making practices in ways that are playful, tongue in cheek and ironic, we consider the many different forms and artistic tones that poignant artistic expression can take. We also examine the multitudes of the veteran artist identity: Who is a veteran artist? And what is veteran art? The exhibition's title is a military slang term referring to throwing smoke grenades as a means of cover or escape during battle. The term "pop smoke" is also common slang that means "to leave a place". This exhibition is developed in partnership with The Veterans Art Project (VETART) and the Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission (MHSOAC). Additional sponsorship support provided by Visit Oceanside. Follow on social media: Facebook + Instagram

Director: S. S. Rajamouli Run Time: 187 min. Release Year: 2022 Language: Telugu w/ English subtitles Starring: Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, N.T. Rama Rao Jr., Ram Charan, Ray Stevenson This film is part of FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION, an on-going series featuring some of the best films of the year you may have missed during their initial runs in cinemas. Synopsis: Back on the big screen where it belongs for an #encoRRRe, RRR is an exhilarating, action-packed spectacular mythologizing two real-life freedom fighters who helped lead India’s fight for independence from the British Raj: Komaram Bheem (Jr NTR) and Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan). Set in the 1920s before their fight for India’s independence began, RRR imagines a fictional meeting between the two, set into motion when a young Gond girl is stolen from her village by British soldiers. With a powerful message, staggeringly choreographed action sequences, and an all-timer (or three) of a musical number, RRR is sheer big-screen joy from start to finish, and audiences have one last chance to see it big and loud as intended. Critic Quotes: “To call this the best blockbuster of 2022 is only partially accurate; it’s really several of the best blockbusters, plural, you’re apt to catch this year.” – Rolling Stone “RRR is maximum cinema, the kind of in-your-face, colorful, fiery, loud, awe-inspiring experience you really can only get from the movies.” – Slate “The thrill of RRR is not the density of its storytelling, though — it’s the exuberance of it.” – The Atlantic “You won’t be bored for a nanosecond” – Hollywood Reporter Stay Social!
