" . . . and Drive (Far Away)" is a mixed media sound installation and durational performance by "Set It Off" artist Jeremy Toussaint-Baptiste which centers on a cross-country drive in a decommissioned police car. Throughout his week-long solo drive from Tucson, Ariz., to Richmond, Toussaint-Baptiste will perform activations in key cities along Interstate 10 and Interstate 95, highways that are themselves arteries of Gulf South sonority. The culminating performance in Richmond, which will be open to the public, will be held at 401 W. Broad St. This performance is co-presented by VCU's Institute for Contemporary Art at the Markel Center, 1708 Gallery and Martos Gallery, New York.
