Dear Friends of the Furnace,
Consider yourself cordially invited to Franklin Furnace’s intern curated exhibition starring a few wonderful FF Alumns!
The exhibition, titled [Label This] highlights five different artists who have created work which challenges audiences to evaluate their own preconceived notions of how ability, in its infinite configurations, can shape the ways in which we exist in the world.
The exhibition, contained in two museum cases, features documentation of work by artists Lisa Bufano, Gary Corbin, Dustin Grella, Frank Moore, and Linda Sibio from their performances at Franklin Furnace and beyond, and is conceived as a complement to the Disability Rights Timeline which was installed this Spring by Pratt’s Learning/Access center.
Please come to Pratt Institute’s ISC Building on July 18th from 5-7PM for the grand opening, or swing by anytime, Mondays thru Fridays, 9am-5pm through December 31, 2019. For more information please call 718-687-5800 or send an email to mail@franklinfurnace.org.
If you can’t make it, keep an eye out for our [Label This] zine, coming to you soon online!
Thank you very much.

Opening Reception: August 3rd, 1-4pm
Mark Tansey and Robin Tewes had studios at P.S.122 Painting Association. They were both one of the founding members. P.S.122 was formed in the late 70’s in the lower east side, New York City and it still exists today. It was an abandoned school building that was transformed into individual studios by the artists of which there was about 6 of them at that time. Mark and Robin made several collaborations when they were part of P.S.122. There were various ways they collaborated. Sometimes they would exchange ideas and work together or separately and then get together and finish it. Sometimes they would just exchange ideas and/or images and respond to it in our own space and time. The piece in this exhibition was created that way.

“Provocation Cards Interact,”
Description:
Wearing her signature “Existential Button Pin Hat and Logo Image T-Shirt” Barbara Rosenthal strolls among passersby in front of international monuments and major museums in the language of their country, calling out “Free Ideas,” while distributing text art, i.e. 2.5″ x 4″ cards, on which she’s printed some of the philosophical lines that came to her in her Journal over the years. Her most recent iteration of this piece was in Feb. 2019 in front of HAM, the Helsinki Art Museum. A bound folio of them is also available through Printed Matter. Two were made into billboards in Padua in 2009: “The Flaw of the Ideal is that it Does Not Encounter Time of Touch” and “All History – documentation, journalism, diplomacy, thought, art, culture, etc. – serves only to influence behavior of single individuals at single moments.”

9. Frank Moore, FF Alumn, now online at http://frankadelic.com
Frank Moore, FF Alumn, featured in a new episode of the web video series about his life and art, LET ME BE FRANK
Let Me Be Frank
Episode 14 – Playing With Reality
Episode 14 of the LET ME BE FRANK web documentary series, “Playing With
Reality” explores Frank Moore’s 48-hour performance processes, “back to
the core of the ritual work”. During the same period as the Outrageous
Beauty Revue, in the late 1970s, Frank started creating 48-hour pieces,
altered realities centered around one person, “the pilgrim”, who signed
up to obtain a list of life goals.
“Playing With Reality” takes us into the backstage of Moore’s work,
describing how he was able to create a liminal performance state,
melting normal reality with dream reality for the pilgrim, an “awake
dream where all things were possible”.
The reading is by Kenneth Atchley, American composer, noise, drone and
video artist, and member of the S.F. Bay Area electronic music
community. Music by Kenneth Atchley, Stephen Emanuel and Vinnie Santino.
“Playing With Reality” features film footage and photos from the 48-hour
processes themselves, as well as Frank singing “I Am Woman” at L.A.C.E.
in Los Angeles in 1992.
The episode also features “48-hour Process”, the 7th installment of “How
To Handle An Anthropologist”, a recurring animated feature in the Let Me
Be Frank series, from the new book by the same name.
Let Me Be Frank is a video series based on the life and art of shaman,
performance artist, writer, poet, painter, rock singer, director, TV
show host, teacher and bon vivant, Frank Moore.
The series is partly a biography, but also a presentation of Frank’s
philosophy on life and on art. Twenty-plus episodes have been planned
based on Frank’s book, Art of a Shaman, which was originally delivered
as a lecture at New York University in 1990 as part of the conference
“New Pathways in Performance”. Each episode will feature readings by
people who played an important part in Frank’s life, either as friends,
lovers, students, artistic collaborators or supporters of his art.
Let Me Be Frank presents Frank’s exploration of performance and art as
being a magical way to effect change in the world … performance as an
art of melting action, of ritualistic shamanistic doings/playings. Using
Frank’s career and life as a “baseline”, it explores this dynamic
playing within the context of reality shaping.
The series is available on Frank’s website at http://frankadelic.com and
on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/channels/letmebefrank .

Altered After
Curated by Conrad Ventur for Visual AIDS
July 10 – August 18, 2019
Opening reception, Wednesday, July 10, 7-9pm
Considering themes of time, caregiving, and transformation, Altered After presents artworks that incorporate archives, archaeology, salvaged objects, material migrations, inherited knowledge, and bequests in response to HIV/AIDS. For these artists, stewarding material remnants and activating new meaning from them is a form of care and also a call to bring new engagement and life to what has been lost and left behind. Their practices build bonds of kinship and give form to legacies and personal histories. The artists in Altered After are field guides reporting between worlds through paint, movement, video and film, light and chemistry, plants, everyday materials, thread, stone, pebbles, and clay.
