…are some of the old friends whose work I am especially jazzed to see at the show this year – just opening tonight – like Dawn Kasper‘s studio relocated to a gallery where she will work, nap, hang-out, receive the public, and generally occupy (who performed two of her “Evil Series” murder enactments at Sundown Salon events in 2003 – first at Salon #6 in the garden for Pipilotti Rist’s Instant Installations; and later at the Schindler House for Salon #9: Sundown @ Schindler); the installation and May 20th fashion show of K8 Hardy (who did a performance as the bobcat for Animal Estates #1 at the 2008 Biennial); and Wu Tsang’s Silver Platter room and Wildness feature film…plus plus plus eager for LaToya Ruby Frazier photos, Laura Poitras film, Charles Atlas sets, Oscar Tuazon installations, Michael Clark dances…
