As I’ve mentioned, I was in Albuquerque this past week was to install a sculpture for Dispersal\/Return, a curated show of Land Arts of the American West<\/a> alumni at the University of New Mexico Art Museum. Albuquerque is a pretty weird place: as my friend Ryan Henel put it, the city is the Baltimore of the southwest. I gotta say, I dig both places. Fortunately the University Art Museum is across historic Route 66 from the Frontier, a five-roomed New Mexican cuisine emporium. I feasted on fat breakfast burritos stuffed with green chilis. Glade and I brought a jar of chilis and a bag of Albuquerque tortillas back and had breakfest burritos yesterday morning, mmm hmm. Anyway, here’s a shot of the installation of the Cryptostructure in progress:<\/p>\n

The sculpture is a pedestal with two TVs and PVC pipe on top that’s all wrapped in a blue tarp. Here’s the animation that’s playing on the TVs:<\/p>\n

I bought a red light to shine on the Cryptostructure so that it’ll look more like my installation at MASS (see my previous post<\/a> on this subject) but I won’t know if the curators decide to use it unless I go to the reception, which will be on September 24th. I don’t know for sure if I’ll be able to make it, but my fellow Landartians Li’l Bunny Krunk and the Dirty Monke will be performing there and then hosting their variety show Sunday School<\/i> at the Petting Zoo in Albuquerque that Sunday. If I go, I’ll be sure to document and then share with y’all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
