Sandra Bernhard: 'Sandrology' @ REDCAT
REDCAT: The wry and sometimes wicked Sandra Bernhard mixes outrageous humor, cutting satire and fiercely energetic musical numbers in an all-new production that takes its name from Bernhard's appearances as a "pop culture anthropologist" on Bravo TV, but there are no censors and nothing is sacred when Bernhard takes the stage to journey through the worlds of contemporary culture, politics and celebrity.

We are very pleased to be working with Catherine Taft, a Los Angeles-based curator, writer, and critic, in organizing the exhibition and its accompanying catalog. The catalog will be available at the opening reception, and will feature essays by seven emerging writers and by members of the CalArts faculty. We are excited to be taking over LA Mart's sprawling concourse level, home to last September's artist-run project space, CO/LAB, at ArtPlatform.
Catherine Taft is a project specialist at the Getty Research Institute and was recently named a directing member of Human Resources, Los Angeles. She is co-editing the forthcoming book Double Issue: A Document of the Pacific Standard Time Performance and Public Art Festival and has contributed to a number of exhibition catalogs. Her writing is regularly featured in several publications, including Artforum, ArtReview, and Modern Painters.
The exhibition is made possible by Art Platform, Los Angeles and ARTRA Curatorial. LA Mart is located at 1933 S. Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90007. The exhibition will be open to the public Monday through Saturday from 12-5 pm, June 1st - June 23rd. There will be a closing reception on Saturday, June 23rd, from 6-10 pm. Refreshments will be served, and validated parking will be available during the opening and closing receptions. You can visit our website at www.calarts2012.com to preview works in the exhibition.
