Heads Up!

Here is an invite from curator Natalie Loveless inviting you to the Western Front Programming for LIVE:
--L.W.

http://participatorydissent.artintervention.org/

Thurs:
Want to walk?
IN THE STREETS: Join iKatun for Shopdropping or the National Bitter Melon Council to promote Bitterness. They leave from the WF @ 1pm. And, if you haven't yet made an appointment, be sure to email Sal Randolph for a Free Money appointment!

Want to stay put?
AT THE FRONT: Come contemplate dislocation with Roddy Hunter in the Gallery from 2-5pm.

Night Time!:
Meet and greet, 7pm at the Rhizome Cafe.

Fri:
More walking?
IN THE STREETS: Join iKatun for Shopdropping or the National Bitter Melon Council to promote Bitterness. They leave from the WF @ 1pm for their second and final day of infiltrations! And, though it is probably too late, you can always try to get in for this last day of Sal Randolph's Free Money.

Tired of the rain?
AT THE FRONT: Continue contemplating scenes of displacement through not only Roddy Hunter's performance, in the Gallery from 2-5pm, along with Second LIVE online interventions, screened in the LUXE from 2-5pm, and two durational performances (1-10 pm), one by Paul Couillard and one by Marilyn Arsem. Marilyn will be offering single person performances in the WF guestroom, while Paul places and displaces himself around the WF space in hourly segments.

Night Time!:
AT THE FRONT: Please come back to the WF by 7pm (if you are not still there!) to see some more of Paul and Marilyn before turning to Jeff Huckleberry for his performance in the Gallery at 8pm. When Jeff is finished there should be time for a return to Paul and Marilyn for the last hour (9-10), but you know performance art!

Sat:
To the beach!
Meet at 1:30 pm at the WF for a shuttle to the beach to watch Naufus Figueroa's performance from 2-3pm, and then back to hook up with the second set of Second LIVE online interventions, screened in the LUXE from 2-5pm.

Night Time!:
AT THE FRONT: For our final night of performances we are pleased to start with a 1-hour archive performance by two of the founding fathers of the WF, Michael Morris and Vincent Trasov. They perform at 8pm in the Luxe. From there we will trek downstairs to the Gallery for the last performance of the festival, by Artur Tajber (unless Vassya Vassileva decides that this is her impromptu performance moments but, either way, look out for it somewhere!)

Sun:
Bring yourself, well caffeinated, to the WF @ 2 for the round table discussions from here some of us will be heading out for food and drinks at the FOUNDATION, please join us!
