FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MIKE LAI
"TEAM BRUCE LEE VS. THE SUPERHEROES"
Location: Washington Square, San Francisco, California
Date and Time: 1-4 pm, Saturday, October 20, 2007
At 1 PM on Saturday, October 20, 2007, in Washington Square, San Francisco based artist Mike Lai will present "Team Bruce Lee vs. the Superheroes," a site-specific Capture the Flag game between a gang of Bruce Lees and a motley crew of Superheroes. Kung Fu and Superpowers vie for title of ultimate strength, skill, and power. Will a lifetime of mindful, meticulous meditation stand to surpass the supernatural mutations of mind control, x-ray vision, superspeed, and flight?
In the past, Bruce Lee prevailed over seemingly insurmountable odds in a game of death against Kareem Abdul Jabaar. But will he be a match for this squadron of superheroes with countless victories of valor over various vicious villains under their ubiquitous utility belts? It's reality versus fiction and man versus mutants in the ultimate game of Capture the Flag!!
Mike Lai was born in Hong Kong. He received his MFA in sculpture from the San Francisco Art Institute in 2005. He lives and works in San Francisco.
"Team Bruce Lee vs. the Superheroes" is part of a San Francisco citywide arts festival "OPEN SKIES", October 19-21, 2007. It is presented by COCA: Center for Outdoor Contemporary Art in community partnership with Neighborhood Parks Council. This project is also supported by the San Francisco Arts Commission's Cultural Grant- Individual Art Commission.
