Opening Reception | Sculptures of Anissa Mack's


The sculptures in Anissa Mack's exhibition, Second, often begin with a memory of a thing in the world. Through a series of material substitutions and displacements, these memories (as sculpture) are recalled with increasing distortion and relevance to a present; memory is continually reinvented. With affinity to both craft and outsider art traditions as well as the austere forms of Minimalism, Mack's work is without a politicized agenda; it is intended as a direct form of communication. Free from overt art historical posturing, but with an acute acknowledgement of diverse and weird influences, Mack's sculptures seem to exist as discrete things within a world of strange things; a parallel vernacular. Anissa Mack has been included in numerous museum exhibitions including group exhibitions at the CAPC Musée d'art contemporain de Bordeaux, France (2010); ICA Philadelphia (2010); P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center (2003 and 2002); and solo exhibitions at the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, OR (2010); Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum, CA (2008); and a public commission for the Public Art Fund, NY (2002). Her work has been reviewed in Artforum, The New York Times, Time Out New York and The Guardian (London, UK)

Performance | Gay Camp Comedy Show


It's gay. It's camp. It's Gay Camp! Every summer, confused, young campers are sent away to Camp Acceptance to "cure" their homosexuality. Start with a deliciously evil headmaster and a closeted lesbian guidance counselor, throw in a few electrified fences, disco balls, white girls rapping, boy-boy love, girl-girl love, gay Twister, Sarah Palin, slow-motion fantasies, whips, handcuffs, flannel, and more innuendos than you can shake a dildo at, and you've got Gay Camp. Gay Camp is fast, funny, and not pulling its punches as it takes on the anti-gay morons in America.
