Hair and Nails, the wonderful Minneapolis Gallery, is hard at work digitizing zine catalogues from their exhibitions. If you have never read one, or haven't read them all yet, check out their magazine for some now-online art reading featuring incredible layout and design by Kristin Van Loon. I am excited to share the link and nudge you towards some of the zines that feature my artwork and arts writing. 

#11: My solo show: "Laying in Wait" features essays about my work by: Leia Wambach, Christina Schmid, Sean Smuda, and Nicole Soukup

#21: Group show "Future Future" featuring a crew of great artists and essays by great writers!

#28: My first arts writing essay written about Kieran Myles-Andres Tverbakk, Kelley Meister and Lamia Abukhadra's work. 

#31: I wrote an essay about Rachel Youn's life-changing exhibition!

new york jerker Update

JERKER POSTPONED: There’s no substitute for a sex party like Inferno! After rehearsing in the vale, we have decided to postpone our NYC presentation of Robert Chesley’s Jerker. It’s too difficult to hear the actors in the park, and we don’t want mic such an intimate presentation. Thanks to the queers of NYC for your love and support & special thanks to Adam for trying to make this work despite the rages of government neglect that lead to the original venue cancellation. Take care til next time-- Emmett and Maxe
