Handelman transposes<br />the Flowers of Evil into a pop landscape, creating a  hallucinatory<br />fragmented narrative that lies somewhere between conceptual art piece and<br />pure visceral experience.<br /><br />For this exhibition Handelman transforms the gallery with projections,<br />live performers, and photographs from her latest project This Delicate<br />Monster,a place where passion, obsession, fashion and ugliness collide.<br /><br />Collaborating with couture fetish designer Garo Sparo, Italian noise band<br />Larsen, and a cast of performers, the multi-screen narrative is<br />constructed of gestures and sounds that breathe life into Baudelaire's<br />text such as, "No abyss compares with your bed" and "to swallow up<br />existence with a yawn". Like Artaud's Theater of Cruelty, this piece<br />implicates the viewer into a mediated world of attraction and repulsion,<br />with moments so loaded with the symbolic that they destroy meaning<br />altogether. The exhibit becomes a sympathetic symphony of gasps, shrieks<br />and repetitive actions that can best be described as a cross between a<br />horror film and a fashion shoot gone terribly wrong.<br /><br />+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<br /><br />9.<br /><br />From: Ryan Griffis <ryan.griffis@gmail.com><br />Date: Oct 14, 2005 11:50 AM<br />Subject: Fwd: [festival] Early warning SMF4<br /><br />Begin forwarded message:<br />><br />> Hello all.
