What defines a piece? How does an idea become part of the public artistic palette? Can an idea be used without being seen as a reference to other work? By investigating work “that’s been done before”, Sentimental Pussyfooting tours back through performance history to find new fertile ground. Directed by Andrew Wass, featuring Kelly Dalrymple, Sonsherée Giles, Sean Seward, and Adam Venker.
To hear Andrew talk about his upcoming show, video work, stuttering, and more with Greg Scharpen on the KALX show Artsinreview, click here. Interview took place Feb 21, 2008 and is about 30 minutes.
