Mountains
Michael Iauch

Process made visible, the mountain comes to Moses or in this case, to FalseFront via Michael. Michael Iauch repeatedly walked up Pilot Mountain in North Carolina in late winter, 2009, dragging paper behind him. FalseFront shows the drawings that result.

This recent PNCA MFA is doing performance like no one else in Portland, e.g. a recent performance he did as a human pinata in a yard draped with black streamers. I’m very much looking forward to this.

Instead of a preview, here’s a post-view, a video of the Human Pinata piece.
