X-PRESS Revisited Entry 2October 28, 2015

I processed a bunch more photograohs from our X-Press collaboration. The photos below with the white rats was a performance in Columbus, Ohio. We always pushed the limits of the audience’s boundaries so we always wanted some separation between us and the audience. This performance took place in a long narrow gallery and there was no real natural boundary between us and the audience. So we bought two white rats and tethered them to two bricks and figured that the audience would not cross this psychological boundary. They did not. The wonderful photographs of the rats were taken by H. Michael Sanders, a colleague of ours.

The other photos were taken during two other performances and are very badly shot photographs. Nevertheless, they are the only documents of these performances other than the programs and promotional material we created.
