LAXART presents the first solo exhibition of New York based artist Kalup Linzy, curated by Laxart Adjunct Curator, Malik Gaines. “The conventions of television soap operas become a hilarious and insightful psycho-sexual playground for New York-based artist Kalup Linzy, as he turns this most mundane form inside out with his series of clever videos, ‘Conversations Wit De Churen’.” (PR LAXART). Linzy’s film approach recalls the early styles of John Waters, Andy Warhol, and George C. Wolfe. This episode shows a snippet of Linzy’s video and a short interview with Kalup Linzy. LAXART, July, 2006. By VTV correspondents Parichard Holm Steakley, Slim K and Gerold Wunstel.
