Along with premiering “Aggro Dr1ft” at film festivals in Venice, Toronto and New York, Korine has been announcing his new Miami-based company, EDGLRD, a multidisciplinary, multimedia outfit that will be involved in a wide range of creative endeavors. An exhibition of paintings by Korine inspired by the thermal imagery of “Aggro Dr1ft” will be on display at L.A.’s Hauser & Wirth gallery from Sept 15 through Jan. 14. Rapper Travis Scott also appears in “Aggro Dr1ft,” and Korine recently directed segments of Scott’s “Circus Maximus” project, including performance footage at the ancient amphitheater of Pompeii, alongside other filmmakers such as Gaspar Noé and Nicolas Winding Refn. When “Aggro Dr1ft” premiered at the Venice Film Festival, Korine and his EDGLRD collaborators did their press conference wearing 3D-printed masks inspired by the creature effects in the movie. Korine walked the red carpet with his wife, Rachel Korine, and the oldest of their three children, 14-year-old Lefty Korine.
