Second Life - Gandhi Project

This blog is a journal and document regarding the online and treadmill powered reenactment of Mahatma Gandhi’s “Salt March to Dandi” in Second Life from March 12th through April 6th, 2008. I will be using this blog on a daily basis to document my progress and experience as the project evolves over the 26 days of “walking” throughout Second Life. Feel free to visit me in Second Life or on location at Eyebeam in New York City where I will be set up with my customized treadmill for the 26 days of the 240 mile march. -Joseph DeLappe

"Hi all, I am finishing up a six month residency at Eyebeam in NYC - part of this involves a final exhibition of the results of my residency. Here is information on the exhibition - of particular note - I've created a 17' tall cardboard Gandhi replica of my Gandhi avatar from the Second Life reenactment of the Salt March conducted earlier this Spring. I created the monumental statue using adapted Pepakura papercraft techniques - the sculpture has been designed to be the same height as Michelangelo's David."

SONOFAGOD PICTURES
Was Jesus heterosexual?
9 mei 2006 – 30 juli 2006
GILBERT AND GEORGE

“Lustrous, ornate, pictorially complex, vividly coloured, yet suffused with tenebrous solemnity, the SONOFAGODPICTURES have all of the dramatic visual impact which one might expect to find in neo-Gothic medievalism – in Victorian reclamations of Celtic of Moorish symbolism, for example, regally bejewelled and portentous with romantic mysticism. At the same time, however, the SONOFAGOD PICTURES possess a darkly graven strangeness, at once archaic and ultra modern, in which their temper no less than their signage appears deeply contemporary, ritualistic and disturbed” Michael Bracewell

A fully illustrated catalogue, with an essay by Micheal Bracewell, has been published by White Cube to accompany the exhibition.
view works

  • Gilbert & George, Sonofagod Pictures, from 9 May to 30 July 2006, at the Bonnefanten museum (250 avenue Céramique, Maastricht).

    but is it art?



    Its called "Bucket of Blood" but perhaps it should have been titled "Dead Cat". It was the late movie and it had me hooked from the opening scenes. Its a great critique of the arts industry as seen from 1959, with much of the commentry applicable in today's art market. One thinks of dead cows and corpses.



    as described on books online
    "Movie Script -- Original Title Death Artist -- The great Roger Corman produced and directed this cheerfully gory skewering of beatniks and the arts community. Dick Miller plays Walter Paisley, a no-talent busboy who idolizes the artsy types who frequent the coffeehouse where he works. When Walter accidentally kills his landlady's cat, he tries to hide the crime by covering the kitty in clay, and is soon hailed as a sculpting genius. Sure enough, the fickle arts community begins clamoring for some larger work. As a horror movie, A Bucket of Blood is merely okay, but it's great as a little black comedy. Corman works in some nice gruesome touches, such as backing up Walter's Big Emotional Moment with a steady drizzle of blood from a victim's arm. Most of the jokes aimed at the artists' pretensions still seem fresh: When offering Walter some breakfast, Maxwell announces that they're having "soy and wheat-germ pancakes, organic guava nectar, calcium lactate and tomato juice and garbanzo omelettes sprinkled with smoked yeast." The free-verse parodies are also very funny. Don't expect Bucket of Blood to keep you up with nightmares, but do sit back and prepare to enjoy a refreshingly sick sense of humor."
    ------------------------------------------------------------------


    "Bring on the multitudes and the
    multitude of fishes - feed them
    that you will be satisfied,
    nourish the artist, stretch their
    skin upon an easel, crush their
    bones into a paste, so that he may
    mold them, let them die, and by
    their miserable death become the
    clay in his hands, that he might
    form an ashtray or an ark - that he
    might take you in his magic hands
    and wring from your marrow wonder -
    all that is comes through the eye
    of the artist"
    The full script is here, its a fun read link

    David Nash - Wooden Boulder




    David Nash
    19 May - 16 July 2005

    David Nash is one of Britain’s leading sculptors and is renowned for his skilful and dynamic transformation of fallen or uprooted trees. Annely Juda Fine Art is delighted to present a new exhibition of his sculptures and drawings based on the theme of the Pyramid, Sphere and Cube.



    David Nash Wooden Boulder 1978 – present

    For the past 25 years Nash has been working on an extraordinary project motivated by his interest in ecology and the environment. In 1978 he rolled a large wooden sphere into a river near his studio in Blaenau Ffestiniog, North Wales. Since then he has documented the boulder’s journey and changing environment until it reached the sea in 2004. Included in this exhibition is Nash’s compelling video and documentation of this living project ‘Wooden Boulder’.
