Ticker February 4, 2010

“Though Mr. Feldman’s performances often defy description, they are always memorable.”
– Katie Ball, ArtBeat (WUCF-FM 89.9)

Brian Feldman invites anyone to place their hand over his beating heart for five minutes.

This project was originally intended for 1st Thursdays at Orlando Museum of Art, which will be taking place the same night/time with the theme “Art from the Heart” (free for OMA members, $10 for non-members). However, as Brian didn’t include the required non-refundable entry fee of $25 (he’s not crazy about payola art shows), his submission was not accepted. No biggie. He’s doing it anyway.

This interaction takes place atop Jackie Ferrara’s Wing Stepper (part of the City of Orlando’s Public Art collection) @ Lake Rowena Park, directly across from Orlando Museum of Art on Mills Avenue (US 17/92). Feel free to stop on by before, during, after or in lieu of 1st Thursdays.
