Don't take it / Personally

Crazy Space, Santa Monica

A four-week performance art marathon and installation.

Crazy Space presents a month-long performance series and a new, multimedia installation, curated by LA-based dance theater and media artist Michael Sakamoto and featuring local performance artists, including Rochelle Fabb; Michael Morrissey and Franc Baliton of the Rachel Rosenthal Company; Ann Perich of Guitar Boy; and Joan Spitler.

"Don't Take It/Personally is both a meditation and discourse on the issues of authenticity versus superficiality, the social and emotional value of art and the very nature of mediated experience," the series states. "Individual attendees to the exhibition will be forced to choose between a direct, unadulterated performance within an austere, confined, intimate space with a single performer or an entirely second-hand, depersonalized, multimedia version of the performance. By bringing matters of personal choice, individual interpretation and the ephemerality of all experience to the fore, the exhibition will assert that everything in our lives is personal, especially when we attempt to deny it."

Crazy Space is dedicated to fostering art works that might not otherwise find a home because of their noncommercial or experimental nature. The gallery is located in the 18th Street Arts Complex near Highways at 1629 18th St. #2 in Santa Monica.
