Hello everyone!
I'm pitching the idea of a Sideshow Art "legit" art gallery show, to the Rebecca Randall Bryan Art Gallery, here at Coastal Carolina University. The gallery Director is interested and has asked me to help research / curate this exhibit. I had mentioned this idea to her last year and she is seriously interested in doing this in the next two years. I have been a fan of the sideshow since I saw Tyler Fyre in New York many years ago, and have followed the posts here on the Magic Café. I know there is a great community here, as well as a network that could help make this happen. It's in the early baby stages, so I am soliciting everything from actual items to display, along with ideas on presentation etc. The show would be framed with some academic "experiencing the other / outsider art" stuff that we have to do in the University environment. I'm imagining on actual display: Banners, exhibits (zibits?), props, shrunken heads, audio recordings, video, clothing, photos, vintage exhibits from Tate, rogue taxidermy, stories, a headless woman, etc. We might as well have some live performances at the opening too! I'd like to gather contact information for people who have examples of the top work in these areas. The gallery Director will be pursuing grants, and has a budget within the University to acquire the loan of these items. So, if anyone has any info, ideas or interest in helping to make this happen, feel free to post and or contact me. I look forward to hearing from you- Cheers, Eric |
