Professeur Choron

Les Fiches Bricolage are the the works of the brilliant french comedian Professeur Choron.  In these shorts, he drew humorous connections between domestic life, social conventions, politics, and paranoia.

JUST YOU AND ME

Played on loop, the short piece is based on a character that stands as an iconic figure for an entire generations identity crisis. A figure whose performance is grotesque and inhumane, sexual and heroic.

CORNROW RIDER IS A NEW YORK BASED ARTIST COLLECTIVE. THE COLLECTIVE WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2008 AS A PLATFORM FOR SEVERAL ARTISTS TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY CROSSBREEDING GENRES, BACKGROUNDS, IDENTITIES AND WORK HABITS. THE WORKS AIM TO CONFRONT THE PARADOX OF THE CURRENT AGE BY ILLUMINATING THE PROCESS IN WHICH REGIONAL ECONOMIES, SOCIETIES, AND CULTURES HAVE BECOME INTEGRATED THROUGH A GLOBE SPANNING NETWORK OF EXCHANGE. MEMBERS OF THE COLLECTIVE HAVE EXHIBITED INDEPENDENTLY AND COLLABORATIVELY IN BOTH GALLERIES AND MUSEUMS WORLDWIDE.

SEA DIAMOND

CHICAGO VS DENVER

“…AN UNEDITED AMERICAN FOOTBALL GAME FROM THE 2009 NFL PRE SEASON. WITH THIS SEEMINGLY EFFORTLESS GESTURE OF SHIFTING THE CONTEXT FROM LIVING ROOM TO GALLERY, THE COLLECTIVE MINES CONVENTIONAL MEDIA TO WARHOLIAN PROPORTIONS. CHICAGO VS DENVER CONTINUES THE COLLECTIVES EXPLORATION OF CLASS, RACE, AND SEXUALITY NOT BY MANIPULATING THE SOURCE MATERIAL, BUT THE ACTUAL AUDIENCE WHO CONSUMES IT.”

WATCHMEN

I want to be   a part of it so bad. I’ve been having dreams some nights, maybe 1 every two weeks, that lead me to believe that I am a part of it. And it is like heroin. Like a 15 year old’s mushroom body high. The amazing culture it exudes far surpasses anything I get from movies or music. The realistic portrayal of super heroes in a time that might need them the most. At the verge of anihilation. (spell check that for me.) A story so full of death makes me want to live so much more . I’ve subjected myself to something less than what I … no. I love  comics. And this story inwebs my dreams, many of my thoughts when I’m by myself, and it makes sitting more pleasurable than others would have let me know. I love watchmen. find something in it, too.
