Planet X-mas Party

December 3, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm

With all of the chaos occurring throughout the world, we can often feel as though we are powerless to the influence of unseen forces pulling on us, altering our intended course, and impacting our daily lives. Conspiracy Theorists, and even some noted Astronomers, suggest that there could be yet another planet that orbits within our solar system, Planet X. This mysterious and mythical planet, which no one has actually discovered as yet, could be imposing its gravitational pull on the other planetary bodies in our solar system, threatening to disrupt their orbits, reeking havoc and causing a cataclysm of cosmic proportions.

This holiday season Leon Gallery invites you to join them for an evening of holiday cheer and revelry, enjoying the company of kind hearts and creative souls, while playfully indulging in the possibility that, unbeknownst to us on this little blue ball hurtling through space, we could be on a collision course with some dark, immense, and foreboding celestial body.

The evening will involve tasty treats, delicious drinks, great music, stimulating conversation, and, of course, dancing!

More about the featured artist, Jonathan Saiz:

After spending several years in Greece, Paris, and Mexico, Saiz has triumphantly returned to Denver and it’s artistic community, poised to shatter whatever expectations the local critics, curators, and collectors may have about of his practice. Courageously exploring controversial subject matter and unconventional materials, Saiz’s signature lush, polished style has evolved into a chaotic, convulsive, and dynamic manifestation of the deep, dark terrors we all imagine. He has vulnerably tapped into and exposed the fears he indulges in, a cacophony of conspiracy theories, provoked by the daily barrage of socio-political battles, the surpassing of climate change thresholds, and the potential destructiveness of cosmological forces, that continuously threaten our world and our way of life. In the artist’s own words, “Something doesn’t feel right.”
