FUCK THe ART CENTER

fourth wall

hobo clown

BEND

Performance art at the whitney!

so i guess it is not just the art center of sarasota that feels that they need to be "hip" with the times. this guy is kinda interesting, i would like to know what you think. i am kinda weirded out by the fact that he was chosen as the first performance artist in residence.

a long time ago

I NEED YOU

dude, where's my me?

I don't really know. Sorry I haven't been posting. New York and shit. It's going to be a very visual summer. Working for Petah Coyne, visiting galleries and museums in the city, creating a portfolio for grad school since art school has been calling to me from beyond the grave, telling me I'll regret it forever if I don't go. The thing about New York City is that nobody really cares what you do as long as you're doing it well. So I've decided that this summer I'm going to engage in an experiment, because the city is a perfect control group. Basically, I intend to go out in public in full drag, with different personas and different kinds of masculinity, dress, and assumptions. I'm not really sure what the conclusion of this experiment is supposed to be but I'm sure I'll find it out somewhere along the way. Apparently I've become a sculptor while nobody was looking, which is kind of fun. Nash, I have a million things to tell you about fiber arts. Oh yes.

dialogue

can we engage in one? i'd like to think about organizing an art show. i've given up on the uhaul cause i don't want us to have to rent a generator. however, i have not given up on you. i'm interested in projecting videos onto walls throughout the new college campus. i'm interested in a room filled with confetti and box fans. get it? i'm interested in a textile piece that i need everyones help with. what are you making (not for class) that you need help with? let me know/ i'm here for you.

will make you feel like a failure

so i am pretty sure someone must have introduced me to this back in the day, but they are now featured on ubu, so that is how i came across this stuff just now. hope you like it rtri.

OPEN - Art Festival

Hey RTRI, I'm trying to pull together some kind of art festival that is reminiscent of "Under the Radar" that happened a few years back. It's going to be on April 5th in Sudakoff. It's in conjunction with Culture Fest, Art for Charity, and probably a few other things. There will be an entire Art Exhibition (OPEN) dedicated to art from people (New College, Ringling, anyone in the community). 2-D, 3-D, Installation, Video, performance if you wanted it. There will also be bands playing all day in front of Ham Center. I wanted to know if any of you sandbutlers would like to be in it/ do you guys want a spot for RTRI in the show? Wanted to give you all and extra heads up. Submission deadline is March 13th. Let me know if you want to put stuff in or if you have/know of bands that would like to play.

lets have an art show!

so nash and i have been hashing shit out and we think may 8 and 9 we should rent a uhaul and have a traveling show! included in the uhaul will be lots of things we make as well as possible videos and performance. get yer shit together, K? lets have a meeting soon, at mine and sarah's new house! maybe monday after printmaking class?

hey

RTRI, im waiting by the phone

but it never rings. you disappoint me, RTRI. sometimes i think there is such hope in our future. but lately, you have been giving me the cold shoulder. i thought you liked me. i thought we had good times. and what about all that great sex? iknowiknowiknow, it takes two to make it and break it. but right now, i cant give as much as i used to. so can you pick up the extra weight? i am counting on you sweet RTRI. i know you have it in you. just give a little, and i will give back. maybe some plans for a show? hell, i would accept even a drunken get together with you. i will take that. i will take anything. just giveittome RTRI. i promise lovin' right back. so whaddya say? it is almost valentine's day baby. gimme something good.

they shoot homos don't they?

nash is on my mind

from the book intimate distance "in K, 1989, the artist appears to expel a long string of viscera from her mouth which she then knits with her arms into a dress which hangs down in front of her naked body. but, rather than suggesting a violent disembowelling, the film offers a meditation on the interiority of the body and the irrational fears it engenders. the disgust and horror we might feel at innards revealed is converted into a recognition of beauty, even of domesticity, as she slowly her body's visceral covering. it is difficult to find the film, i just found an excerpt, not even ubu was carrying it. but nonetheless, i was thinking rtri upon exploring this artist.
