In his new piece at the SculptureCenter, Eating/Breathing, Hendricks works with yoga teacher Christina Read for several hours, stretching, breathing, doing headstands. They pause near the end to eat brown rice with their hands. Hendricks then paints his calves and feet blue, ties grass to his thighs, and stands on his head. Even upside down, nature is right side up.
Hendricks says he realized during the performance that "all parts of the body are thinking. It seemed suddenly like the flip side of what Yvonne Rainer was saying when she spoke of the mind as a muscle. The body is a mind."

Is this all tax funded? This is what folks are s'posed to do on their own time, in the back yard on weekends. Now if y'all will excuse me I have an art exhibit to stage. It's called "Max Sits Around The House In A Lazy-Boy And Boxer Shorts Eating Nachos And Smoking Like A Friggin' Train And Watching Dallas Get Its A$$ Kicked." It's a partially-nude neo-postmodern commentary on the significance of phallic imagery in the realization of inner resonance. Contributions welcome. Particularly beer.

Sorry maxwell, I can't contribute it seems I am already putting on the exact same display, except for the fact that I will be watching the Cleveland Browns get their arses kicked.

The part about watching Dallas just saved you from a lawsuit. If it wasn't for that you would have plagiarized one of my Masterpieces.
