MARTHA WILSONCurator, Performer (A Forum for Performance Art, Oct 16)

Martha Wilson is a pioneering feminist artist and gallery director who over the past four decades has created innovative photographic and video works that explore her female subjectivity. She has been described by New York Times critic Holland Cotter as one of “the half-dozen most important people for art in downtown Manhattan in the 1970s.” In 1976 she founded Franklin Furnace, an artist-run space that champions the exploration, promotion, and preservation of artist books, temporary installation, performance art, as well as online works. She is represented by P.P.O.W Gallery in New York and has received fellowships for performance art from the National Endowment for the Arts and the New York Foundation for the Arts, Bessie and Obie awards for commitment to artists’ freedom of expression, a Yoko Ono Lennon Courage Award for the Arts, a Richard Massey Foundation-White Box Arts and Humanities Award, and in 2013 received an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University.

He studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Mason Gross School of Visual Arts Rutgers University, and the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program. Owens was an artist-in-residence at the Studio Museum in Harlem, and he attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He has received numerous grants and fellowships including the William H. Johnson Prize, Art Matters grant, a Louis Tiffany Comfort Award, New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship, the Rutgers University Ralph Bunche Distinguished Graduate Fellowship, and from the New York Community Trust, the Lambent Foundation. Publications, reviews, and interviews about his work include The New York Times, Art +Auction, The Village Voice, Modern Painters, Art in America, Artforum, The New Yorker, BOMB, The Wall Street Journal, The Drama Review, Greater New York 2005, Performa: New Visual Art Performance, Rethinking Contemporary Art and Multicultural Education, and Why Art Photography? He has written for exhibition catalogues, The New York Times, Artforum, and Performing Arts Journal. Owens has lectured widely

He has been visiting artist faculty and a guest critic at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, Yale University, Harvard University, Princeton University, New York University, and the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. His project, “Anthology,” was the subject of a solo exhibition at MoMA PS1 and the source for his first book. Owens has recently completed “Seminar,” a project about the pedagogy of performance art at Pioneer Works in Brooklyn; “Five Night’s Worth,” in conjunction with Performa13 and the traveling group exhibition “Radical Presence: Contemporary Black Performance”; “The Kiss” in collaboration with Legacy Russell at Danspace Project in New York City; and “Photographs with an Audience: Philadelphia” and “Photographs with an Audience: Manchester.” Owens was born in Baltimore, MD in 1971 and lives and works in NYC.

AMANDA ALFIERIArtist, Performer

Amanda Alfieri is a performance artist from Los Angeles. She received her MFA from Columbia University in 2013. In 2008 she attended the Skowhegan School of Sculpture and Painting. In 2011 she was possessed by Tupac Shakur, and in 2012 she was a semi-finalist in the casting process for the reality TV show Survivor.

RENEE COXArtist, Performer

Renee Cox is a New York-based photographer and mixed-media artist who is known for her seminal presentation of Afro-futuristic photography. Cox was born in Jamaica and later moved to New York where she received a degree in film studies from Syracuse University. Cox spent several years working as a fashion photographer in Paris, later returning to New York where she continued to work over the years as a photographer for several high-profile fashion magazines.

Cox has used her work to express her concern and perspectives on social issues and religious imagery. One of her most notably controversial pieces was a photograph titled “Yo Mama’s Last Supper” exhibited in 2001. In this work, she recreated Leonardo Da Vinci’s iconic “Last Supper” featuring her nude self, sitting in for Jesus Christ surrounded by black disciples. “Yo Mama’s Last Supper” has since been referenced in several scholarly publications and discussed in lectures around the world.

Finding the inspiration for her work from her own life experiences, Cox has used her own body to represent her criticisms of society and to celebrate and empower women. In 2006 Cox exhibited her series “Queen Nanny of the Maroons” at the Jamaican Biennale shown at the National Gallery of Jamaica. The body of work was awarded the Aaron Matalon Award, the highest honor given to any artist exhibited. One of the works from the


show, “Red Coat,” has traveled to museums as part of the Caribbean: Crossroads of the World exhibition, including the Perez Art Museum Miami (2014) and the Studio Museum in Harlem (2012).

Cox has been featured in other museum exhibitions including the Spelman Museum of Fine Art (2013), Wadsworth Atheneum (2008), Nasher Museum of Art at Duke (2006), Brooklyn Museum (2001), Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston (1996), and Whitney Museum of American Art (1993), among others.

Cox’s work was recently featured in “Pictures from Paradise: A Survey of Contemporary Carribean Photography” as part of the Contact Photography Festival (Toronto, Canada, 2014). Her latest body of work, “Sacred Geometry,” consists of digitally manipulated black and white portraits that display self-similar patterns. Executed with precision, the works create sculptural kaleidoscopes of the human body while exploring the power of symbols as elements of collective imagination. The inspiration for “Sacred Geometry” comes from fractals, the centuries old mathematical concept used by many ancient African cultures. “Sacred Geometry” has also been the result of Cox’s embrace of the digital world. Bridging the gap between the old and new technology has brought on new challenges and endless possibilities. Work from the new series will be part of an exhibition in Miami later this year.

SHAUN LEONARDOArtist, Performer

Shaun Leonardo, a Brooklyn-based artist originally from Queens, is a multidisciplinary artist who uses modes of self-portraiture as a means to convey the complexities of masculine identity while questioning preconceived notions of manhood. The portraits take the form of cutout paintings, drawings, and sculptures, and are brought to life through performance. He received his MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute and has received awards from Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, New York Studio School, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Art Matters, New York Foundation for the Arts, McColl Center for Visual Art, Franklin Furnace, and the Jerome Foundation. His work has been presented in galleries and institutions internationally along with recent solo exhibitions in NYC, and is featured in the current exhibition Crossing Brooklyn at Brooklyn Museum. elcleonardo.com

His photographic works evidence a delicate balance between Eastern and Western visual culture, resulting in a personal style characterized by drama and restraint. His emotional sensitivity


Who’s Who

MERIEM BENNANI Animation

New Yorked-based artist Meriem Ben-nani grew up in Morocco, and earned an MFA from the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and a BFA from Cooper Union in New York. Bennani and artist Hayden Dunham are the co-founders of Other Travel, a collaborative curatorial project involving the creation and delivery of extra-terrestrial gifts to seven artists in the New York area. She is currently hard at work on Some Silly Stories, a series of kooky, kinky, hand-animated perversions based on her own crude drawings and a constant dialog with musician Flavien Berger.

PEGGY NOLANDCostumes

Peggy Noland is an artist based in Kansas City and Los Angeles. Using clothing as her medium, she opened the storefront Peggy Noland in 2006

with a collection that drew from Pop Art, Japanese streetwear, and club kid fashion. Since then, the concept shop has evolved into an Oldenburg-like retail installation that responds to consumer culture by exaggerating trends—most recently creating puffy paint plays on brands and logos. An avant-garde sense of humor is a strong current in Noland’s work, absorbing the world around her and then reflecting it back through the mirror of a distorted funhouse. The result is content-driven clothing whose supporters include Rihanna, Lady Gaga, and Gossip. She has exhibited internationally through-out Barcelona, Berlin, and New York, and her work has been featured in The New York Times, Dazed and Confused, Interview, and Women’s Wear Daily.

HAYDEN DUNHAMCostumes

Hayden Dunham sometimes prefers the name Quinn Thomas. As Thomas, she works with liquid displays and substances which take on high gloss forms such as silicone plastics and bubble formations. Virtual realms, medical scents, cyborg dreams, and feeling technologies permeate her sculptural work. The concept of muta-tion is a constant presence, as when an object appears as one thing but qui-etly performs as another. She is espe-cially interested in the ruptures in this dynamic which occur when a person or object fails to “pass.” Her work has been reviewed by The New York Times and has appeared in the Perez Art Mu-seum Miami, MoMA PS 1 Print Shop, Museum of Arts and Design, New Museum, MOCA, The Perfect Nothing

Who’s Who


Catalog, Signal Gallery, and with Jackie Klempay and Colette, among others. Dunham received a degree from New York University’s Gallatin School in 2010. She is currently the co-founder of Other Travel, a publication and cura-torial project based in NYC. This is her fifth production with Dynasty Handbag, and she could not be more excited to be a part of Soggy Glasses.

PABLO HELGUERA Artist, Performer

In a methodical way, returning to strategies connected to the baroque fugue and ars combinatoria (combina-tory art), Pablo Helguera (born Mexico City, 1971) often draws improbable relationships between human histories, biographies, anecdotes, and historical events, bringing them all together in a cohesive whole and making all serve as a reflection on our current relation-ship with art as a society. Helguera often focuses on history, pedagogy, sociolinguistics, and anthropology in formats such as lectures, museum dis-plays, performance, and written fiction. His project The School of Panamerican Unrest (2003—11), an early example of pedagogically-focused, socially engaged art, consisted of a nomadic think-tank that physically crossed the continent by car from Anchorage to Tierra del Fuego. He has exhibited widely internationally (MoMA, Havana Biennial, Performa, Reina Sofia, among many others) and has been a recipient


of the Guggenheim, Franklin Furnace, and Blade of Grass Fellowships, and Creative Capital and Art Matters grants. He was the first recipient of the International Award of Participatory Art of the Emilia Romagna Region in Italy. His book Education for Socially En-gaged Art (2011), a primer for social practice, has quickly become adopted as a primary textbook for art schools and university programs internationally. He has authored several other books including The Pablo Helguera Manual of Contemporary Art Style, Theatrum Anatomicum (and other performance lectures), What in the World, and Art Scenes: The Social Scripts of the Art World, a book on the sociology of con-temporary art. In 2013 he launched the project Librería Donceles, creating the only Spanish used bookstore in New York, a non-profit project intended to draw attention to the perceptions of Latin American culture in the US. Currently touring to Phoenix and San Francisco, the bookstore will return to Brooklyn in 2015. His current project Nuevo Romancero Nuevomejicano for Site Santa Fe, NM, consists of a performance and a series of exhibitions about the history of the Mexican Period of New Mexico using extant music and historical documents.
