sense of purpose

Just returned from a trip to New York with a renewed sense that First Backyard has the potential to put on some great projects intermingled with my exhaustive hope that many artists will do that project they've always wanted to do but didn't know where.

After seeing the Whitney Biennial and especially the 100 Year overview of performance art at PS1, it is only more apparent that, as artists, we have to continually take risks and sometimes try what doesn't generally make sense but specifically is perfectly logical. Kate Gilmore had a piece at both shows and is a perfect example of an elegant idea executed simply without overproduction.
