Rock Steady with Greggycrisco's WHORACLE!!!

That's right, I said "Rock Steady" and also used triple exclamation points. And What?

We got a treat for you, New York effin' City.

In 2 weeks (mark your calendar) our good friend and L.A. artist Gregory Barnett brings his "normal" to our space with WHORACLE, a crystallization of the current phase of his process. i.e.- stuff he drew/painted/made



RECEPTION - HANG OUT, GAZE, DRINK
Opening reception for WHORACLE is Friday, April 15 at 8pm. stop by, meet the man. Seriously, I've known him for years - the dude is always exploding with ass-clowney Greg-ness. Ya needs ta come. FREE

PERFORMANCE
He's also blessing us with a performance on Saturday night (April 16 at 9pm) and will be joined by various local artists (Kim Almquist, FeleciaMaria, Stan Apps, Diane Tomasi and Gorgas.) Now THAT is gonna freekin rock.
Greg's Dance Company, DANCEGOOD.DAMNIT!!!, has previously brought notorious shows to L.A.'s Highways theater. He will be performing a few solo pieces for us right here in Red Hook at Everbrite Mercantile Co. FREE

MOVEMENT CLASS
And to top it off: Monday he will be teaching an all level interdisciplinary performance workshop, KINK STRETCH. So iffin you're the type who needs to move, you won't want to miss this. Monday, April 18... 2pm to 5pm. $10 suggested donation

I would be remiss in my duties as Media Flack if I didn't present you with Greg's own (intentionally pretentious and unapolagetic) words:
WHORACLE

A pantheon of jovial hermaphrodites, transcendental pornography and vulnerability propaganda secure a sex-positive sanctuary asking and allowing us to reconnect with the all-but-forgotten Sacred Whore. Los Angeles- based interdisciplinary artist Gregory Barnett premieres WHORACLE, a collection of arts & crafts and drawings addressing and reversing our society's unnecessary shame towards sex culture and it's ignorance regarding screwing as a conduit for enlightenment and ascension. Countering a culture obsessed with homogenized and airbrushed titillation but horrified by a gaping blood-letting cunt, Barnett's decidedly affirming collection of newfound deities and impromptu, scrawled mantras attempt to balance our skewed misunderstanding of f*cking and loving.
