It's June 2nd and sadly, The Politics of Shoes Exhibit is completely down except for some wire hanging from the ceiling and the rolling video station from which I hope to periodically display both videos specifically created for the exhibition and videos documenting the installations and performances in the evenings which may be viewed through the windows of Mobius, 725 Harrison Avenue, Boston MA.
Because of the mad dash nature of how this series of performances and exhibit were thrown together, we were unable to blog in real time as events occurred.
It was always my intention to document the performances and installations as much as possible and blog in reverse so to speak.
Over the next several weeks, I am planning on daily featuring either:
1. one of the installations artists (or in some cases, collaborative teams) in surname alphabetical order
OR
2. one of the performers (or collaborators) from each of the three evenings of performances in order of appearance.
I am hoping the featured artists will upload, add their own stories and particulars/experiences to this blog and that visitors to this blog will add their comments to this documentation in reverse blog.
I also plan to add notes/commentary along the way about the experience of the exhibit and performances and events leading up to the Politics of Shoes as well as articles/reflections/comments from visitors to the exhibit including two invited writers/journalists who are not art critics because I think of this particular exhibit as one that crosses boundaries into disciplines other than the arts. One journalist G. Jeffrey MacDonald principally writes on social and religious issues/news and the other, Jill Furumoto, has written for Spare Change, one of the local Boston papers which focusses on social issues and more specifically, the homeless and disenfranchised in our community.
