for AIOP festival 2009

I am looking for performers for my upcoming events:

 

October  17th and 24th, 2009 – “Thank Thank You for Your Visit, Have a Nice Day”, Art in Odd Places:SIGN, NYC

Inspired by a uniformed attendant holding the sign “Hold the Handrail” in a Taipei metro station, I’ve created this moving installation/performance piece. In wearable sculptures of multicolored crocheted camouflage, my performers appear in various sites on 14th Street, displaying photographs of signs I’ve collected from different countries that are in emphatic, ironic or amused dialogue with their location. 
 
Two more performances will occur on October 17th and 24th, 2-5PM along 14th street and Union Square. Please, come and find us!
