Coming up @ Co-Lab

JULY 10


*CASH ONLY : Caitlin G. McCollom
Installation/Performance: Saturday, July 10, 7-11PM
*Cash Only is the investigation of art consumption by exploiting the image, representation, and body of the artist as a religious icon. This performance based show explores the commercial nature of contemporary art and the commoditization of the artist herself. In *Cash Only, Caitlin McCollom aligns herself with Catholic images as she transforms herself into art deity. Like Catholic iconography, she will present her image and name as cheap purchasable commodity, and ultimately offer herself in a participatory performance in which viewers can purchase time and services from her. Caitlin will hear your petitions and provide her services for *Cash Only.
