HARDBOILED is a free monthly digital magazine concerning social problems, responsibility and the corrosion of our physical and cultural environments. It is an ecological and social magazine, dedicated to examining the relationship between human beings and their physical and mental environment, offering incisive philosophical articles as well as activist commentary from around the world addressing issues ranging from aids and child labour to even genetically modified foods!

We aim to provide means of shaping the image and activities of the global network of artists, activists, writers, students, educators and entrepreneurs who want to advance the new social activist movement of the information age.

The Elegy of A Man and His Weapon of Choice: The Hyperbolic Alpha Male

72-13, 72-13 Mohamed Sultan Road, S239007

24.05.2007 Thu 08.00pm till 25.05.2007

By Rizman Putra, a Creative-in-Residence of 72-13 SCAN in collaboration with Zulkifle Mahmod and Robert Guth.

This multi-disciplinary presentation is an exploration of masculinity, self-identity and the political issues surrounding them; it investigates the hypothesis of a man’s journey into his ego.

Working with collaborating artists, Robert Guth and Zulkifle Mahmod, Rizman’s H.A.M, consists of installation, video projection, sound exploration, voice and movement. This is a work-in-progress.

“….. in the context of the Hyperbolic Alpha Male series, the body acts as a depiction. The burlesque act of performance is not a degradation but rather serves to question the role of men in social strata. My intention is to interlace the perception of an alpha male with a range of foolishness as a form of discontent. ” — Rizman Putra, a President’s Young Talent, 2005

24 & 25 May 2007, 8pm nightly at 72-13.
Ring 6737-7213 to reserve a seat.
