EFA's Everybody Dance Now
On the 8th, I went to an exhibition in my studio's building, hosted by the Elizabeth Foundation. It included video works by many artists with dance themes. Some of the better known artists represented included Mike Kelley (whose Extracurricular Activity Projective Reconstruction #32C, Horse Dance of the False Virgin showed two horses- or at least the old duo of people dressed as horses, one at the head and one at the tail- in a sort of courtship ritual in a high school gym), Nam June Paik, and William Wegman. Many of the vid.s were pretty amusing, like caraballo-fallman's dildos which, without evidence of human operation, became anthropomorphized into characters dancing (or at least shaking) with their own personalities.
EFA's site has some cool and hilarious dance vid.s here:
