RANDY

DETOUCHED Exhibition is on view in Project Arts Centre in Dublin.

Detouched isn’t a word.  As a word that isn’t a word, it exists somewhere between retouched and detached. It’s also fairly close to untouched, which means that it has a lot to do with touch. It might be best understood as describing a detached sense of touch, or an act of touching that doesn’t involve an act of touching, however paradoxical that may sound.

I AM SERIOUS MAN

January 25-26, with performance event on January 27 featuring Narcissister

Geo Wyeth’s I AM SERIOUS MAN is the internal landscape of a real live fictional exhibitionist named Kitchen Steve, articulated through interactive sculpture and song. Kitchen Steve moves through his desires to disclose, confess, and disrobe, repeatedly facing dire and absurd consequences for his behaviors. He is a kind terrorist, a mentally unstable Apple Store customer, a corporation, and a collective. The gallery will be open from 12 to 5pm on Jan 25-26 for visitors to interact with the sculptural element.

The installation will be activated by a performance on Sunday January 27th which will also include a performance by New York based artist Narcissister. Doors at 7pm and performances starting at 8pm. Conceived of and performed by Geo Wyeth. Additional visual consultation by Savannah Knoop. Partially supported by Queer Lab.

Come peep our back issues at the Library of Independent Exchange in Plymouth, England!!

L.I.E (Library of Independent Exchange) was founded in Plymouth in September 2011, conceived as a temporary arts reference library and events space.

The core aims of the L.I.E are to develop discussions and exchange, exploring the processes of publishing, collaboration, and dissemination.

L.I.E has an ever-increasing permanent collection of works by contemporary independent arts publishers and artists. Rather than presenting itself as a conventional Library, L.I.E aims to explore how a resource functions and how it can be utilised; making its collection accessible to the public through the project’s curated programme of events and exhibitions.

Mark James and Christopher Green are the project’s founders and directors.

Here’s what they had to say in Tsang’s profile, to see full article go here.

Wu TSANG The personal films and video installations created by the artist Wu Tsang explore issues of transgender identity and have been shown at MoMA, where ‘‘Wildness’’ will screen on Dec. 16, and as part of both the 2012 Whitney Biennial and 2012 New Museum Triennial. (Tsang was the only artist to appear in both prestigious surveys.) Tsang identifies as transfeminine, which carries plenty of complicated social and political meaning. And he happens to look fierce in a dress. Ann Demeulemeester jacket, $2,445, and dress, $1,525; Bergdorf Goodman, (212) 753-7300.
