Re: Artists and the Recession Survey Results

hi POW’sters – thought you might be interested in this…happy holidaze!

Subject: Artists and the Recession Survey Results

Dear Alyssa,

Thank you so much for your participation in the Artists and the Economic Recession Survey, commissioned by Leveraging Investments in Creativity, in collaboration with Helicon Collaborative and Princeton Survey Research Associates International.

As promised, here are the preliminary survey findings:http://www.lincnet.net/sites/all/files/Selected%20Findings%20Artists%20and%20the%20Recession%20Survey%202009.pdf

Highlights of the data include:
Two-thirds of artists hold at least one job in addition to making art.
Artists’ incomes are relatively low (two-thirds made less than $40,000 in 2008), and half (51%) reported a decrease in their art-related income from 2008 to 2009.
Forty percent of artists do not have adequate health insurance and more than 50% are worried about losing what they do have.
Despite the challenges, artists are optimistic about the future—89% think artists have a special role in helping strengthen communities in these times, and 75% believe this is an inspiring time to be an artist.
Some opportunities have emerged as a result of the recession—40% report they have been able to spend more time on their artwork, and one-third have seized the opportunity to experiment and collaborate more.
While direct financial support would be most helpful to artists, technical assistance, networking opportunities, and supplies are also high on the list.

A full report will be available on our website (www.lincnet.net) in early Spring 2010.

Thank you for your interest and participation,

and is this suppose to be earth shattering news? Or even shocking depressing outrage?

Actually this survey is a great piece of ironical performance art. Getting paid good money to ask those obvious questions! That is high art indeed! And I love the surreal name, Leveraging Investments in Creativity. Like how many joints did it take to come up with that new speak name, and how many more joints to keep a straight face saying it.

Btw, if you see Leveraging Investments in Creativity drive up, RUN!

RE: FOR GOINGS ON (“Crack O’ Dawn”)

(Re: Frank Moore on Barb Golden’s “Crack O’ Dawn”)
I’m sure you know the old joke:

Why doesn’t Tony Orlando need an alarm clock? Cause he always rises at the crack of Dawn.

Heh heh harley

wasn’t the word “into,” not “at?”

i am so sorry to hear about sasha! i know that must be devastating, she was a big part of your family and was a sweet special being…

when my cat marvin passed away a few years ago, it was like losing a soulmate. he shows up in my dreams all the time, telling me he is safe, joyful and still with me!

rest in cherotic cherubic peace sasha!

Re: sasha (Jesse Beagle)

what a sad loss, and she’ll be well remembered. Cats become like their owners when
close, Jessica was just like me!!!! A little ‘odd’ Fast as lightning and really human. Was she the closest to you, Frank? We humans aren’t so much smarter. We manufacture in our own bodies, no vit C, whereas cats make a lot of mg. of vitamin C that helps much to keep them alive. I will celebrate her memory.

I needed/wanted a cat when Jessica left though who could replace her, but when
Isobel, who helped me in ‘deciding what vegetarian raw meat (ugh! Jessica said)
she should eat like Isobel.’ but when she saw I took it so hard, she understandably said, “No,’ you should not get another cat, that was too hard on you.
Only Alexi, with me all the way, with the doctor both days wih me (I left her overnight)
got me through it. Jessica when the doctor botched the first shot, turned
around and bit him and the doctor smiled and said “a fighter to the last!!!!!!

love, Jesse

i feel like getting darkly sexy for this holiday performance!

“…He’s wonderful and hilarious and knows exactly what it’s all about and has earned my undying respect. What he’s doing is impossible, and he knows it. That’s good art….” L.A. Weekly

“Merging improv, erotica, entertainment, religion and ritual, Frank Moore – self-styled shaman, world-renowned disabled performance artist, and 2008 presidential candidate ….” – East Bay Express

Resisting “the easy and superficial descriptions…, Moore’s work challenges the consensus view more strongly in ways less acceptable than…angry tirades and bitter attacks on consumer culture.” Chicago New City

“If performance art has a radical edge, it has to be Frank Moore.” Cleveland Edition

“Transformative…” Moore “is thwarting nature in an astonishing manner, and is fusing art, ritual and religion in ways the Eurocentric world has only dim memories of. Espousing a kind of paganism without bite and aggression, Frank Moore is indeed worth watching.” High Performance Magazine

“Surely wonderful and mind-goosing experience.” L.A. Reader

Re: sasha (Paul Escriva)

Friday morning Sasha, our second cat, passed away. He is now in the back yard under the redwoods with Cyb. Kittee is taking it reasonably well.

In Freedom,
Frank Moore

Frankie and Everyone,

I’m very sorry to hear of your loss.

I’ll always remember Sasha as the mellow kitty.

It’s a difficult matter under any circumstances.

Heaps and heaps of hugs to all,

xo Paul
