In geologic cadence Troika Ranch developed their dark on-stage anthropology. Could also be a display of schizoid spousal personality disorder - views in a mad house. Womens' forearms definitely became homo erections; stiletto pumps – maturing desire or just vertical ambulatory evolutionary expression?

Auction Results: Lots of Great Buys and Great Fun at Gray's Auctioneers!Submitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Mon, 06/25/2007 - 22:45.
Maybe you were there at Gray's Auctioneers Inaugural Auction on Sunday June 17th? Doors opened at 10:30 am for one last opportunity to preview the over 200 lots of fine art, furniture and decorative items, and by noon, auction time, the room was packed with excited bidders. Some of the people in the audience were old pros and others were new to the auction world. This first auction had something to suit everyone's taste and price range. Those who attended were glad they did!

audio tutus return 15 years laterSubmitted by Susan Miller on Sun, 06/10/2007 - 10:18.
I encourage everyone to see the return of Maubrey's audio clothing to Cleveland. Back in the day, the Performance Art Fest and Rep Project were hot topics. Now long in the past, it is good to see Ingenuity hauling out some art and technology collaborations that are still interesting 15 years later. By the way, these were the only tutus Rep Project ever wore. The toe shoes, you might be wondering? We torched them in 1989, like so many bras burned in the 1960s, we had no use for them. The event took place on what is now a parking area just west of SPACES Gallery. Yep, we were a scrappy lot dedicated to new horizons for dance in Northeast Ohio. I still see glimpses of hope for the postmoderns here in NEO, but only glimpses. The majority of the audience seems mired in Taylorism, insipid as it is. Ingenuity offers a chance to revisit, check out and get tuned into what has been going on in dance for the last uh... 40 years. Get with it NEO, the dance world has passed by here skipping over Cleveland like so many bits of detritus between NYC, Oberlin, Cincinnati, Columbus and Chicago. Here's more: Sound Junctions Also see Troika Ranch -- who despite rumor made their Northeast Ohio debut at Oberlin College (go figure) years ago. Thank you, Carter McAdams.

dance video of the day - motionhouseSubmitted by Susan Miller on Mon, 06/04/2007 - 07:34.
Here's a spot of dance to get your week in motion. Motionhouse The work is called "Driven". If you enjoyed Wired Aerial, you will be interested to stay with this one for a bit till they get hooked up. It reminds me of a story my husband told about parasailing in the Bahamas. Once in the harness attached to the chute he asked what happened next and the guy beside him on the platform said, "Take two steps and fly, mon!"

How many times in the last 10 -15 years I have gotten off the highway at the East 72nd Street exit of the Shoreway and winced at how depressing this mostly post industrial, impoverished landscape looks.

Terry Schwarz talks about "Shrinking Cities" at SPACESSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Sun, 04/29/2007 - 01:04.
Friday night I attended a reception and lecture at SPACES Gallery for select Cleveland organizations with interest in urban planning and sustainability. The current exhibition at Spaces, Shrinking Cities, explores strategies for post-industrial urban areas and should be of great interest to anyone interested in urban planning and sustainability. Terry Schwarz, Senior Planner at the Urban Design Center of Northeast Ohio, was to give a tour of the exhibition. My affiliation? I am an energy ambassador at Case. I am also an art historian, and although there are some witty, beautiful and innovative works represented in the exhibition the theme and the messages of the show truly over power the aesthetics. One could easily forget they are in an art exhibition.
Lessons from Peter B. Lewis and Frank GehrySubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Fri, 04/27/2007 - 15:10.
Wednesday night's lecture at the Cleveland Clinic with Peter B. Lewis and Frank Gehry was everything I had expected and more. I doubt an audience member left without a new appreciation for the positive, transformative power of architecture, friendship and collaboration. It was inspiring just to be in the same room with two people who had made such great contributions to architecture. It was also inspiring to see two people, two friends, who worked so well together as client and architect. A testament to Gehry's fame, the lecture had very few visuals – only a few slides of his most famous buildings such as the Disney Concert Hall in LA, The Experience Museum Project in Seattle, the Guggenheim Bilboa and the unbuilt Peter B. Lewis residence were shown. Peter Lewis and Frank Gehry each spent 15 minutes discussing some of the highlights of their lives and careers and then they took questions from the audience.

Free screening: THE BERNADETTE CORPORATION, Get Rid of YourselfSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Tue, 04/10/2007 - 22:12.
04/11/2007 - 18:30 04/11/2007 - 19:30 Etc/GMT-4 The question "Am I possible?" is the beating heart of Get Rid of Yourself, and it echoes throughout Bernadette Corporation's existence on the borders of fashion and art. The group is influenced by Vivienne Westwood, Malcolm McLaren, and Jean-Luc Godard. They are also interested in new immigrant cultures surrounding their loft "headquarters" on the Bowery in New York City. Bernadette Corporation's interventionist projects function as a critique of our global culture, which constructs identity through consumption and branding. Location

It is easy to see why this might be difficult from onboard a barge. It must have been an amazing dance out there in the southwest where there are the massive farms Jeff pictured here on realneo.
