Nostalgia will soon be put under a new light by the new Toledo SlideShow Collective. Local artists Sarah Cohen, Malcolm Cunningham, Kirsten Lynn and Matt Taylor have joined together with the intention to create installations and performances that explore human activity. Performances will combine found slide photography and use lighting in the GlasSalon to engage audiences. Observers can also participate in the social, creative evening through their own interaction with the images. Each artist has a history with slide photography, the collective is all focused on the role of portraiture and “selfies” in current and past popular culture, reflecting on excess and saturation.
7pm Thursday, January 29. Toledo Museum of Art GlasSalon, 2445 Monroe St. 419-255-8000. toledomuseum.org facebook.com/toledoslideshow
