Didn’t make it to Art Basel this year? We’ve got your friday night covered. Multifaceted artist and photographer, Megan Plunkett has teamed up with visual artist, Jess Scott, to bring you Long Live Me, a special event at [Gallery @](http://thegalleryat.com) where attendees can join in on a collaborative tell all and read portions aloud from their favorite memoirs. With a juicy selection of excerpts readily available, guests can expect a plethora of lurid gossip, dubious recountings, and tall tales.
The event is operating in concurrence with Megan Plunkett’s latest solo-show entitled, “Act Naturally”, which examines the material condition of photography. Interested in how she could imagine an estrangement of realism inside a well-mapped commercial space, Plunkett decided to shoot the project on the second floor of Michael’s restaurant in Santa Monica, bringing along nothing but a camera and a foam-core standee of a cowboy man that she made in her studio. Her body of work serves as an eerie reminder of the separation between you and the public arrangement that we call reality.

“Act Naturally” will be on display at Gallery @ | 6200 Hollywood Blvd until December 15th.
