The complete first season
of Prison Break comes spread
out over six discs with simple, branching menu
screens, and packaged in three slimline cases housed in a master
cardboard slipcase.
On display are several new bodies
of greatly varied work: a series
of paintings based on Amish quilts; a series
of silk -
screened paintings
of t - shirts; sculptures made
out of stacks
of flattened
cardboard with enormous eyes; large - scale pattern paintings featuring panda bears; a wall with photos
of cats that look like Hitler.
Some
of the extended bits that Fadem pulled off in that time: sitting down on a rubber stool, kicking a hole through a stage that would eventually collapse in full, slamming a weird sort
of metal gate /
screen - door combination affixed to the building's wall, jumping into the East River and then reappearing inside
of a barrel
of vaseline that was treated to looked like toxic sludge, hurling himself into a pile
of cardboard boxes and then sounding the world's most pathetic airhorn, addressing the performance's one heckler with a drawn -
out gesture involving his middle finger, drinking a number
of glasses
of water in rapid succession before moving to a sort
of thick, clear liquid that he repeatedly spit up and attempted to drink again (I heard an audience member worry that this would trigger a series
of chain - reaction vomiting in the audience.
