THE COLLECTIONS

Another amazing Jill Pangallo event to report: THE COLLECTIONS. Given only one month to produce a 40 minute video from conception to completion, Jill Pangallo teamed up with Max Juren to create THE COLLECTIONS. It's People, talking about their Things! It's a video, it's a performance, it's a documentary, it's a fantastical vision, it's a contemplation on how possessions shape a sense of self & it's probably pretty funny. (Also at some point I believe I am in it dressed like a cat.)

The screening tomorrow at the United States Art Authority includes performances throughout: accordians, tap dancing, mom jeans, trannys... F-U-N, Y'ALL. Only $10 and you get a choice of a Collections dvd, a Max Juren dvd, or a Jill Pangallo "Let Me Entertain You" book to take home!

(The Chronicle is really excited about it, too!)

ART SCHOOL DRAMA

Soap opera at UT recently involving an informal class instructor, a painting, the "dangerous" color yellow, a confused professor, and too much blogging. A situation so ridiculous even ol' John Kelso felt he had to weigh in.

The painting is currently in the 3rd floor gallery, and today there are people here from all over town looking for it and snapping pics with their iphones.

My favorite quote from this whole mess: "It's embarrassing that this happened at all. It's embarrassing that I'm even commenting on this blog." TOO TRUE, Chris, too true.

WHO KNEW?

JILL      v v v v v v v v v v

From Michael Duncan, a quote which Jill predicted with uncanny accuracy a few days ago:
"Finally, onstage at Fiesta Gardens on March 27, performance artist Jill Pangallo unleashes her inner angels and demons in a raucous spectacle of clashing alter-egos, therapeutic psychodrama, and cathartic release."
DANG CAN'T WAIT

also tons of other people and art and things including angela fox, whose drawings i totally loved in the last 5x7 show but couldn't find out anything else about her despite multiple attempts at internet stalking, and super events listings (including a performance night April 2nd with No Mas Bodas and one of my all time personal performance heroes Silky Shoemaker) !!
