Things have been too quiet on the Murakami front lately. The above video, Akihibara Majokko Princess, somehow fills the empty space between his colossal (and totally premature) MOCA retrospective and whatever will come next from the knockoff handbag inspirer and lord of Japanese pop. In the video, commissioned by Murakami and directed by [...] Been a bit of a busy week for the arts in LA, eh? February 4-7 Actions, Conversations and Intersections @ Municipal Arts Gallery. A host of events are taking place daily as part of this project. Check out the February 4-7 schedule on their site for lots to do all weekend. Of particular [...] As always Jonathan Meese speaks for himself (and in all likelihood, for only himself). Uploaded by YouTuber AnuBobby in 2008, these videos represent an incomplete record of a Valentine’s Day performance (or lecture, perhaps) that I presume was related to Meese’s 2008 show, General Sweetie, at Galerie Mirchandandi + Steinruecke in Mumbai. Only parts [...] 1967 Yayoi Kusama film with psychedelic sounds in three pieces, YouTube style. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Technorati Tags: Yayoi Kusama, art, performance art, art film, 1967, obliteration, self-obliteration, Japanese [...] Face it, moment of Hirst is so 2009. After attempting to elevate Bedazzler culture to high art for the benefit of hedge fund managers, I think we’re all bored. But no one is bored by Lady Gaga (at least not for the next 13-14 minutes). Gustavo Turner of the LA Weekly’s has produced [...] I guess this post means I’ve woken up from my winter hibernation. I’ve changed some of the back end of the site, and the right sidebar isn’t behaving, but welcome the new wider format, intended to catch up to higher resolution monitors. Let me know if anything (other than the sidebar) isn’t working [...] They’re officially everywhere. Not that it came as a surprise, but it was kind of a familiar and homey to discover a hipster scene in Seoul. Not that there were fixes piled outside or anyone wearing a keffiah, but there was, as the photo above indicates, beer in cans, a sure sign of [...] One of the reasons I’m currently in Korea is that I can take advantage of the excellent guidance as Sojung Kwon, seen at right in the above stitched panorama (see giant size here)of her installation Planning a Year: Mondays at Gallery Dam. In March of 2010, Sojung will be exhibiting the whole of [...] Perhaps surprisingly, there aren’t any performance art blogs out there that I know of. Sure lots of artblogs cover performance art, but none cover it exclusively. Carol Cheh, a friend who is a LA-based writer and curator has remedied this vacuum by starting Another Righteous Transfer, a new blog covering LA’s currently vibrant performance [...] My dear friend Edith Abeyta re-staged William Burroughs shooting of his wife Joan for the Tropico de Nopal 2009 Calavera Fashion Show, starring Tom Jennings and Joshua Stehlik in the parts of Bill and Joan, respectively. The whole thing is amazing – kudos to all involved. Video by Youtuber tomicdesu. Below – Edith [...] |
