Structures Without Integrity at Version>06
Published April 25th, 2006 in Ridiculous Prime, spectacleNeed something to do this weekend? There’s a lot going on I know, but why not fit in a trip to Version as well? In particular, the NFO XPO (pronounced info expo) at the Version Kunsthalle (aka Iron Studios Building) on Saturday from Noon-2AM and Sunday from Noon-7.
It’s just a hop skip and a short drive from the Hyde Park Art Center’s 36-hour opening, so why not?
For the CTA-bound:
Red Line to Sox-35
#35 bus westbound to Iron St.
Walk south on Iron to 3636 S Iron St.
Late Night: Take the #9 Ashland bus to 35th St. And walk east to Iron and south to 3636 S. Iron St.
And, a picture.
Or, you could take a cab.
My performance group, Structures Without Integrity, is particpating at Version>06. If you wind your way to the 4th Floor of the Verion Kunsthalle you’ll get a chance to take part in our piece “Simultaneous Landscapes.”
Our booth at the NFO XPO will be a continuously changing installation including monster buiildings, a volcano and a bread house. You’ll get to play with the installation and change it by taking one of our tours. Only a few people can take a tour at a time, so you might have to wait a few minutes. Fortunately, there will be a waiting room stocked with reading materials and refreshment. Be prepared to play, because you might find yourself in the middle of someone else’s tour while you’re waiting.
You guys were great, the installation was lots of fun and I’m so happy that you had so many people stop by. Now you’re not VersionVirgins ™ anymore!
And thanks for hauling our stuff - you rule.

Thanks Kath. I too am very happy about what we did. I’m most grateful for our audience at Version. I was worried that people wouldn’t want to play. the whole piece hinged on our audience performing in the space. We have a great deal of docuementation for the piece thanks to those willing to perform while we watched. I’ll be pulling together a real post (or two) about “Simultaneous Landscapes” just as soon as my apartment no longer looks like art threw up all over it.
If you’re lucky, sweet thang, your apartment will always look like art threw up all over it. :) But I hear ya.
