The event is a benefit to help sustain Parallax View, the media-based artwork sidebar of the annual Cinematexas film festival, which occurs next weekend. The event will showcase art installation, an art auction, Cinematexas short films, music by the Black Angels, DJs, dancing, and more. The featured short film in the program is Sergio Morkin’s “Oscar” (61 min., Argentina, 2004), about an intrepid taxi driver/guerilla artist who rebels against the bombardment of advertising in Buenos Aires.
