The Royal (608 College Street, Toronto)
8:00PM
RED HEROINE by Wen Yimin
China, 1929, silent
Live performance with composers/performers: Devil Music Ensemble
For one night only! – This year’s centerpiece Red Heroine is a rare screening of the only surviving silent martial arts film of its era, and includes an original live music score influenced by Chinese folk music and cult classic Kung Fu film soundtracks by the Boston band Devil Music Ensemble. This tapestry of ancient martial arts tradition, early-20th-century Asian film and 21st-century music breathes new life into a film treasure that dates back from the earliest boom of wuzia (sword-play) films, long thought to have been lost.
Banned in China after the Cultural Revolution, Red Heroine (Hong Xia) was made at the height of the martial arts craze in Shanghai (1920s–’30s) and is the 6th episode of a 13-part serial. It tells the story of a young woman, Yun Mei (“maiden of the clouds”), who is kidnapped during a military raid that decimated her village and killed her grandmother. Later rescued by a mysterious Taoist hermit, White Monkey, she trains in the mountains for three years, learning the art of hand and sword fighting, along with powerful magic.
Meanwhile, the villagers continue to suffer under the corruption and tyranny of the Western army. Yun Mei, now transformed into a resolute warrior, returns with White Monkey to exact revenge and fight back!
Devil Music Ensemble composers/performers Brendon Wood, Jonah Rapino and Tim Nylander utilizes the electric guitar, lap steel, synthesizer, violin, lap steel, vibraphone, erhu (two-string Chinese violin), drums and a variety of Chinese percussion instruments. Red Heroine has toured the Smithsonian Institution, the Pacific Asia Museum in Pasadena, and the Portland Museum of Art.
RED HEROINE is preceded by a new video work from Istvan Kantor!
WHITE BOY FROM THE EAST by Istvan Kantor
In the autobiographical manifesto/mash-up music video White Boy from the East, Kantor challenges concepts of origins as he makes controversial claims to the Asian roots of Hungarian people in an outrageously humorous musical performance.
Istvan Kantor (a.k.a. Monty Cantsin) was born in Budapest and is currently based in Toronto. He is well known for his intellectually rebellious, anti-authoritarian, action-based art practice in performance, robotics, mixed media, sound and installation. Kantor received the Governor General's Award for Visual and Media Arts in 2004.

Daily media reports bombard us with the reality of the current worldwide economic situation. We are in the midst of a recession. Businesses are failing and offering discount prices on everything in the store, the stock market is volatile, companies are looking for bailouts, and government agencies are giving away bloated stimulation packages.
Despite these tough economic times, some businesses are experiencing a boom. Alcohol sales are up; Hollywood movies are experiencing a surge in attendance and theatres are reporting a rise in audience numbers. People need to escape from their problems and forget about reality. During tough economic times, art relating to escapism prospers.
Escapist Action: Performance in Recession begins with a weeklong series of performance events that investigate economics and presents the audiences with alternative methods of exchange. The series culminates in three evening programs of performance entitled Black Friday, Red Flag Saturday, and Grey Cup Sunday. These three evening investigate the mixed emotions evoked by the volatile economic market. The performances navigate the sensations of fear, despair, laughter, and hope. The audience is transported from the dark emotions of Black Friday through the humour of Red Flag Saturday arriving at the celebratory Grey Cup Sunday.

Curated by Rachel Echenberg
Thursday, November 12 at 7PM
Video Screening with works by: Joanne Bristol, Arti Grabowski, Paul Leyton, Noémi McComber, Monique Moumblow, Collette Nolan, Marie-Andrée Rho, Milos Tomic
“Never work with children or animals” is the famous quote by W. C. Fields in which he warns us that these uncontrollable elements will surely upstage the planned structure of a performance. The fact that their uncertain behavior is full of potential inevitably becomes the focus, drawing attention away from the set composition of the piece and allowing for a different reality to ensue. This selection of films and videos highlights performative works that seek out this instability by embodying, sharing or giving up control to either animal or child. The initial artistic idea is constantly disrupted by the intervention or becoming of other. By exploring the relationship between control and abandon these videos exemplify new possible modes of activity within specific social boundaries. The works in this program range from narrative forms, to observations of one’s direct environment, to more abstract performances. Joanne Bristol’s ongoing collaboration with her domestic house cat is portrayed through the animal’s interaction with an art magazine; Arti Grabowski uses his own body as the central figure to be observed/explored by both animals and children; Paul Leyton’s film portrays the child’s version of the adult life; Noémi McComber takes an artificial donkey for a ride through the back alleys of a city; Monique Moumblow observes the different realities of her twin daughters playing; Collette Nolan brings herself into the world of her five-year-old son who is becoming a dinosaur underneath the dining room table; Marie-Andrée Rho moves us through an animal-human transformation; Milos Tomic’s stop-action animation portrays a man who literally lives on the pavement as a street dog.

7. EVENT: The Suit by Vida Simon
Date: November 14, 2009; Source: Galerie B-312
Part of Animals and Children Series curated by Rachel Echenberg
Saturday, November 14 at 5PM
The Suit
Vida Simon
This performance is inspired by a child’s suit. This found object, belonging to another era, appears to be a shrunken version of a grown up’s clothing. The oddly miniaturized adult shape combined with the tactility of the wool and fur materials give the suit a creature character of its own: a collaborator within this improvisational piece. Not knowing the clothing’s specific history allows for a continual projection of possible scenarios – historical and imagined – creating shifts between the present moment and an unfolding narrative. The Suit is the second installment of Vida Simon’s work in the Animals and Children series. This time she moves from the exterior expanse of Leopold – a work in which the artist created an animal that dwelled in the shadows of an old industrial building - into the interior focus of the gallery. This work brings her investigation of the child/animal dynamic to a more intimate space, thus allowing her interaction with the other creature to become more physical and pronounced in its relation to her own body. Both pieces in this series emerge from Vida Simon’s ongoing live research with children that crosses into the many aspects of this artist’s work.

8. EVENT: Will Kwan presents Multi-lateral
Dates: November 12 - December 20, 2009; Source: Will Kwan
Opening Reception: Thursday, November 12, 2009, 6 - 8 pm
Curated by Barbara Fischer
Multi-lateral is the first major solo exhibition of Toronto-based artist Will Kwan. Born in Hong Kong in 1978, Kwan's work examines diverse cultural practices as impacted or resurrected in the flows of historical and contemporary economic relations. Involving intensive research and collaboration, the works presented in the exhibition map patterns and traces of colonialism as they persist within the global economy.
Will Kwan's work often takes the form of searing iconographic formats. The exhibition includes Flame Test (2009), a series of flags imprinted with images of burning flags culled from the international press, installed in the Great Hall at Hart House. Inside the gallery, the artist has installed a large spiraling neon sign using NATO phonetic code, while a series of clocks indicate the local time in mostly obscure, but critical and hyper-specialized manufacturing centers of the global economy (Toyota City, Kibera, Halawa Heights and others) the way a wall behind hotel desks offers travelers the current time in Paris, London, Tokyo and New York.
Visually powerful, through photography, earth art, performance, and video, Kwan's work often focuses on types of exchanges fostered within the multi-national banking system. For instance, Endless Prosperity, Eternal Accumulation (2009), presents a monumental series of photographic images of eighty varieties of hongbao—commonly known in North America as Chinese red envelopes. Containing money, and offered during festivities and social occasions, this Chinese cultural form has been appropriated by transnational financial corporations in North America, the European Union, East Asia and China for circulation to Chinese clientele. The envelopes suspend corporate insignia with the crenulated finery of chinoiserie consumed in both art historical and colonial references. Examinations of encounters between cultural identities are here staged through items that navigate the decorum of financial transactions with the graphic imagination of cultural history.
Will Kwan received his MFA from Columbia University, New York (2004), and was a research fellow at the Jan van Eyck Academie, Maastricht, The Netherlands (2005-2006). His work has been presented at P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, New York (2005); the 50th Venice Biennale, Venice (2003); the Montreal Biennale, Montreal (2007); Duolun Museum of Modern Art, Shanghai (2006); Zendai Museum of Modern Art, Shanghai (2007); Art in General, New York (2004); The Power Plant, Toronto (2008); CAC, Vilnius (2003); the Polish National Museum, Poznan (2007); and Cittadellarte-Fondazione Pistoletto, Biella (2004). Kwan is currently a Lecturer in Sculpture and Art Theory in the Department of Studio Art at the University of Toronto Scarborough and a graduate faculty member in the Masters of Visual Studies Program at the University of Toronto.

10. EVENT: Misplaced Women? By Tanja Ostojic
Date: month of November and November 21; Source: Tanja Ostojic
Misplaced Women?
New York City, Performa
http://misplacedwomen.wordpress.com/
You are invited to perform delegated performance Misplaced Women? while mapping New York City in another way during the entire month of November, and to share your experience on the web.
Misplaced Women? is a delegated performance in which women volunteers carry packed suitcases in the public spaces repeatedly pausing to pack and unpack as they move about the city.
In this project, Tanja Ostojic enacts an everyday life activity that signifies a displacement as common to transients, migrants, and disaster refugees, as it is to the itinerant artist travelling the world to earn her living. Ostojic’s street performance continues themes of migration, desired mobility, and relations of power and vulnerability in regards to the mobile female body, found in much of her previous work.
Locations for performances suggested by the artist include: train stations (inside and outside); women’s house, (in front or inside); refugee camps for illegalized people, shopping malls/market places; ports, airports, underground (inside metro while driving, underground stations)
New York, Performa, White Box
in the frame of: White Noise III: Pandora’s Sound Box, November 2-22, 2009

TOMORROW TODAY ALARM CLOCK
By Jessica Cimó and Jol Thomson
Dance Choreographer Minae Omi, Sound Artist Kota Araki
Gibsone Jessop Gallery
55 Mill Street, Distillery District, Toronto
Saturday November 28, 2009
8-9PM
PWYC
Jol Thomson and Jessica Cimó move their performance space towards a virtual window of reflexive exploration, repeatedly moving participators towards a mode of implication and active physical involvement. Candles, bottles and stack-able objects become both runes and relics of a cooperative relational aesthetic that simultaneously dissolves and embraces the recreational self through a dynamic representation of the increasingly holistic environment. The stack-able object and connective selves come to represent countless movements towards acknowledging how our existence is structured through servitude and self-servitude.
The alarm clock is the chosen symbol of the time that governs us. This active representation of the politics of routine and the social entrapment that repetition propagates leads to pluralities of being and a polyphony of sound, which culminates in a spoken word revelation that recalls us into being.
Once the explosive qualities of dance emerge as the epicenter of pluralistic representation and ritualization in this multi-media performance event, will the spectrum of potentialities and meanings place you in a dream state, or cause you to awake from one?
ADDED SHORT:
SLEEP, THE EPHEMERAL SOOTHSAYER OF ANCESTRAL DEVELOPMENT
Jessica Cimó, Rachel Ovadia; Sound produced by Thetlvmth
Displays of projections of former others in the self re-emerge in a performative dream through the steadfast nature of line drawing, portraiture and sleep. The binaries these displayed actions embrace seek to have more to do with the diurnal nature of the earth than with differences in man or woman. Identity, perception and selfhood are recreated as androgynous as possible. The artist and performer consciously places themselves within the tradition of bedded performance to add yet another perspective on the act of sleep as a performance element.
Uncanny visions of the future and the past are performed out through costume and the spectacle of effect, amidst the generative drone of Thetlvmth’s divinatory combinations.

13. CALL FOR PROPOSALS: Artist’s print on-demand DVDs
Deadline: December 4, 2009; Source: Live Art Development Agency
The Live Art Development Agency has published a series of on-demand dvd's, including the self-titled (see website for full details.) Each dvd has been conceived, authored and designed by the artist to represent areas of their practice, all in very different and exciting ways.
To extend this initiative further we are offering two one-off honorariums of £200 each (including all taxes and expenses), to support two more artists to create on-demand dvds. This small fee is intended to ‘kick start’ the dvd production and can be used to contribute to an artist’s fee or pay for assistance with editing or design. The Agency covers the cost of production and splits sales income with the artist. Due to the modest honorarium offered this call is not for the production of new works for a dvd, but rather an opportunity to bring together existing material(s) for dvd distribution.
Our research shows that sales of art dvds are rarely particularly high. It is therefore not always commercially viable to print/burn larger print runs. This makes print on-demand a viable option and we are keen to hear from artists who have sound ideas for producing a dvd of their work. The DIY nature of our approach to dvd production means that the authoring of the dvd and designing the cover and disc would be the artist’s responsibility. We expect artists to use tools like idvd or Final Cut Pro/Studio Pro to create simple menus for compilations of their work. We expect the material featured will be works made for video or documentation of performances. It would be the Agency’s responsibility to market and distribute the dvd through the Agency’s online shop, Unbound; print the dvd and its packaging as orders arrive; collect payment; and post out orders.
The DIY approach to on-demand dvds will not suit the needs of all artists and artists should consider if the scheme is appropriate to their needs. The Live Art Development Agency welcomes proposals, at any time, for items to be sold on Unbound including books, dvds (either self-published or commercially produced) and multiples.
To apply please send an email to rsvp@thisisLiveArt.co.uk with 'DVD Proposal' in the subject line, containing:
*** Contact details including full name, email address and contact telephone number.
*** A short 200-word biography containing information about your practice.
*** A 250-word proposal outlining your idea for a dvd of your work which illustrates the content and your approach.
The closing date for submission of proposals is 6pm on Friday 4 December. We expect the dvds to be published by 31 March 2010, so please bear this in mind when submitting you proposal. Enquiries and questions should be sent to andrew@thisisliveart.co.uk.
Unbound <http://thisisunbound.co.uk/index.php> is an online shop for Live Art books, dvds and multiples. Unbound is a one-stop shop for everything live from experimental theatre to body art, from the history of performance art to performance theory, from digital performance to art activism. Unbound sells books published by major publishers and galleries relating to the Live Art and performance fields; hard-to-find artists’ publications, including limited editions and artworks; and artists’ dvds. In the coming year we intend to extend Unbound to include further distribution to a hand-picked selection of art bookshops.
Unbound is a Live Art Development Agency initiative, and is run on a not-for-profit basis. Proceeds from Unbound sales are reinvested into the Agency's publication and research projects.
