6X6 Media Arts Presents: Ayers Occupies Cine
Wednesday, March 7 at 8 PM
Cine, Downtown Athens

The next chapter of 6X6 partners with the Cine gallery to present the work of photographer Jeremy
Ayers and his vibrant, textured, and topical images of the Occupy Wall Street movement. A natural
extension of his daily practice of chronicling the streets and strangers of NYC with his camera and
unique visual sensibility, Ayers was ideally positioned to dive into the populist occupation and outcry
back in its inception in the early autumn 2011, becoming an ally to and photographer of the
movement through the publication Occupy!, a semi-regular, forty-page broadsheet newspaper
produced by n+1, the acclaimed print magazine of politics, literature, and culture.

Ayers will share slides and talk about the Occupy movement and his images as a closing event for his
exhibit, currently on view in the Cine gallery. Plan to come and get a taste of what the wide world is
doing out there in the big streets of the city, through the eyes of Athens' original hybrid talent, style
icon, and gentle spirit. Jeremy Ayers is a writer/photographer/yoga teacher who lives and works in
Athens, GA and New York City, NY. His work can be seen online at http://jeremyayres.tumblr.com and
in his books Aeronautica and Today in New York. His new book featuring his Occupy Wall Street
photographs will be available in March 2012.
