june 16-18 8pm, june 18 2pm matinee $15-$20 sliding scale ----/ Event Description /----------------------------------------------- CounterPULSE, the National Queer Arts Festival, and Center for Sex and Culture present: Annie Sprinkle and Elizabeth Stephens In the West Coast Premiere of EXPOSED: Experiments in Love, Sex, Death, Art In the grand tradition of artist couples such as John and Yoko, Alice B. and Gertrude, Sonny and Cher, John Cage and Merce Cunningham, Lucy and Ricky, Biork and Matthew, Sigfried and Roy, now there's BETH AND ANNIE! Come and experience the West Coast premiere of EXPOSED: Experiments in Love, Sex, Death, Art, a new multi-media performance-art-theater- extravaganza. Nominated Austin's Critic's Table Award for Best Touring Show. (People say it's Annie Sprinkle's best show yet!) EXPOSED is a unique love story. Become a part of a genuine celebration of the deepest realms of romantic, sexual, and familial love, in order to bring about positive social change. Exposed offers an artistic response to the violence of war, and the anti-gay marriage movement. EXPOSED takes place in a delightful laboratory, and explores lesbian courtship, artificial insemination, queer weddings, breast cancer, art experiments, communion with community, and more. Audiences will enjoy a live sound-scape, a bevy of enthusiastic lab technicians, and opportunities to be human guinea pigs. They can drink some Love Art Lab Elixer, and great results are virtually guaranteed with no unpleasant side effects. Mixing elements of pleasure, pain, passion, and juice, the "love artists" will stimulate the senses and crack hearts open. Experiment with Beth and Annie and take an adventure into the exotic and unknown. When Annie Sprinkle (former porn star and performance artist) and Elizabeth Stephens (professor and experimental artist) fell madly and passionately in love, they decided to make a commitment to explore, generate, and share their love through art. They named their project the Love Art Laboratory. EXPOSED is directed by Neon Weiss. Technical design and live sound- scape are by Sheila Malone. Guest appearances are by artist and art professor Tina Takemoto (as Biork) and four fantastic laboratory assistants. When: Fri- Sun, June 16-18 at 8pm & Sun. Matinee June 18, 2pm (4 shows only!)
