from Luke about why he’s donating*
The new Arts Academy in the Woods in Fraser, MI helps nurture and develop children's
talents through Dance, Music, Theatre, Visual and Technical Arts. Our extensive arts
program is combined with a solid academic curriculum, including math, science, English,
and languages. Arts Academy in the Woods is chartered by the Macomb Intermediate
School District's Board of Education.
ManneKorpse—Loser Poseur Series is a multimedia exhibition of artwork created by
Luke MacGilvray. His extensive painting portfolio is inspired by the elongated human
form, rich colors, and subject matter which will disturb and intrigue you. He describes his
work as “Flitting examples of mass hysteria compacted into dog food can distribution,
echoing inside an empty skull. Falling. Blackness. Screaming. Leathern blood, mixed
liberally with heat and smoke. Gray mysteries swirling around my hands and face,
sneaking off somewhere into the darkness, bubbling and murmuring, putting the world at
a slight slant to reality.” We invite you to experience his artistic madness for yourself.
