Cancelled, Erased & Removed at SEAN KELLY GALLERY

James Kalm heads to North Chelsea, to take in this intriguing selection of work. As a snow machine churns out fake flakes over the summer streets, we walk in on a performance by Titus Kaphar wherein he excises a classic figure from a painting. Robert Rauschenberg's "Erased de Kooning" is parodied by Mike Bidlo, and John Baldessari alters a Richard Avedon photo of Marilyn Monroe. Laurie Anderson makes a cameo appearance with pithy remarks by Jeffrey Cyphers Wright .

A friend works for an art moving and storage business that has contracts with a lot of the major galleries and museums. They had one of Antoni's chocolate busts in storage. Rats ate it.

Great reenactment of a skirmish. Most of them aren't using real bullets - but which ones? I can't look away.

If I were smart and well-to-do, I would buy the Jennie Holtzer.

Thanks James.

Best-

Janine Antoni's soap bust piece- she actually bathed with it. . . and licked the chocolate one. Yum.
