In the spirit of bygone 70’s comedy albums, The Bored Identity is a collection of characters and songs by the underground’s most beloved subversive comedic performance artist. Dynasty Handbag takes on the self care industrial complex, murderous misogyny and the horrors of heteronormativity by deftly moving in and out of a crackpot slew of characters in ridiculously imaginative scenarios.

Songs include ode to male privilege When A Man Has an Idea and the consumer driven climate disaster electro banger Vat Do U Vant for Bwekfas? For The Lab performance, Dynasty Handbag will be performing all the tracks on The Bored Identity along with her signature mean spirited stand up and social commentary.

Jibz Cameron is a writer, performer, visual artist and actor. She is most well known for her multi-media performance work as alter ego Dynasty Handbag, which has spanned over 20 years and has been presented at arts venues such as The New Museum of Contemporary Art, MOCA, The Hammer Museum, REDCAT, BAM, Centre Pompidou among others. Jibz is a 2022 Guggenheim fellow, a 2021 United States Artist Award recipient and a 2020 Creative Capital Grant awardee. Her film Weirdo Night, directed by Mariah Garnett is an official 2021 Sundance Film Festival selection. In May of 2023 she premiered a new theater piece called Titanic Depression. She released her fist comedy record, The Bored Identity, on Wacky Wacko records in November 2023.

A hilarious reimagining of the 1997 blockbuster film Titanic by the peerlessly subversive and wacky Dynasty Handbag.

Dynasty Handbag’s Titanic Depression sends up James Cameron’s 1997 Hollywood hit, reimagining it as a hilariously bleak parable of human arrogance in today’s era of runaway, consumerism-driven climate change. Co-presented by New York Live Arts as part of its 2023 Live Arts festival Planet Justice, Titanic Depression is Dynasty Handbag’s first major institutional commission in nearly eight years.

More so a live multimedia event than solely performance, Titanic Depression combines animation, video, soundscapes and improvisation into a story about how a ship advertised as unsinkable strikes an iceberg on its maiden voyage and sinks; fitted with too few lifeboats, Titanic’s poor, third class passengers were largely left behind as the vessel’s wealthier occupants were rushed to safety. The disaster became a potent symbol of the haves versus the have nots.

Turned into numerous films—the most financially successful being Cameron’s—this well-worn narrative of class and gender inequality is, in the hands of Handbag’s outrageous physicality and unique improvisational skills, wildly digressed, veering from Hollywood’s obsession with disaster plots to our morbid fascination with death—namely, our own. She plays various characters in the film, such as “Rose,'' who sparks a torrid, interspecies romance with “Jack,” a mute octopus escaping the warming seas by stowing away on the ship disguised as a giant ladies hat. While the iceberg melts in balmy weather before the Titanic reaches it, the vessel goes down anyway in a tour de force of nonsensical, collective doom—a tragicomedy of our own making that no amount of metal straws or fastidiously-sorted recycling will fix. At a time of climate crisis on seemingly every front, “levity arises out of the sheer pressure cooker of the era we are collectively experiencing,” as the artist has noted.

Commissioned by Pioneer Works and curated by David Everitt Howe. It was co-presented by New York Live Arts as part of Live Ideas 2023: Planet Justice. The performance is made possible with support from Creative Capital, The Guggenheim Foundation, Ballroom Marfa, Center for Performance Research, Chorus Foundation, and MacDowell.

PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH UNDER THE RADAR
RUNTIME: 90 MINS

TICKETS

After a sold-out run at Pioneer Works last summer, this hilariously bleak tale of human arrogance in today’s age of consumerism-driven climate change is back by popular demand! Dynasty Handbag’s Titanic Depression is a parody of James Cameron’s Hollywood hit “Titanic,” the live multimedia event combines animation, video, soundscapes, and improvisation, bringing to life the story of the unsinkable ship that strikes an iceberg on its maiden voyage and sinks. This disaster became a potent symbol of the haves versus the have-nots. 

Handbag plays various characters in the film, such as “Rose,’’ who sparks a torrid, interspecies romance with “Jack,” a mute octopus escaping the warming seas by stowing away on the ship disguised as a giant ladies hat. While the iceberg melts in balmy weather before the Titanic reaches it, the vessel goes down anyway in a tour de force of nonsensical, collective doom—a tragicomedy of our own making that no amount of metal straws or fastidiously-sorted recycling will fix.

Don’t miss out on this unforgettable performance that will leave you thinking about the consequences of our actions. At a time of climate crisis on seemingly every front, “levity arises out of the sheer pressure cooker of the era we are collectively experiencing,” as Handbag has noted.

Presented in partnership with Under the Radar, Mark Russell, Festival Director & ArKtype, Festival Producer. More information at utrfest.org

Made in L.A. 2023: Acts of Living

  • OCT 1 – DEC 31, 2023

Made in L.A. 2023: Acts of Living is the sixth iteration of the Hammer’s biennial exhibition highlighting the practices of artists working throughout the greater Los Angeles area. These practices embrace the value of craft, materiality, performance, and collectivity. The biennial situates art as an expanded field of culture that is entangled with everyday life; community networks; queer affect; and indigenous and diasporic histories.

Made in L.A. 2023: Acts of Living takes its title from a quote by the renowned Los Angeles artist Noah Purifoy, which is inscribed on a plaque at the Watts Towers: “One does not have to be a visual artist to utilize creative potential. Creativity can be an act of living, a way of life, and a formula for doing the right thing.” The history of Watts Towers—built by Simon Rodia over the course of 33 years and then preserved by the local South L.A. community, including Purifoy, to become a hub for arts education—embodies this ethos and offers a salient metaphor for this biennial.

Join us for the Made in L.A. Opening Celebration on Saturday, September 30. Be among the first to see the exhibition, and dance in the courtyard to music from Made in L.A. artist collective Mas Exitos. Galleries open late. Cash bar.

Broadcast Bash at Pioneer Works
Nov

8:00 PM20:00

Broadcast Bash at Pioneer Works

Join us for our second annual Broadcast Bash. This year, we’re celebrating the release of our first ever print edition. Since 2020, Broadcast has thrived as a forum for inspired and radical thinking across the arts and science. Now for the first time, we’re committing Broadcast to paper and ink. And boy, does she look handsome.

FREE

We'll have readings from the issue by hannah baer and Ed Park; a performance from the wildly unpredictable Dynasty Handbag; rock theater by the legendary The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black; a DJ set by Herbert Harmonix (aka EZRAKH) of the label Thread Imprint; and stargazing in the garden with the Amateur Astronomers Association.

Join us as we celebrate the artists, scientists, writers, and in-betweens who make Broadcast possible. We’ll be handing out copies of the print issue for free; first-come, first served.

hannah baer is a writer and therapist based in New York. She is the author of the memoir trans girl suicide museum, and the admin of the Instagram meme account, @malefragility. Her work has appeared in Jewish Currents, Artforum, The Drift, The Guardian, and the Los Angeles Review of Books.

EZRAKH is a musician, songwriter, producer, and co-founder of New Jersey-based record label Thread Imprint. He draws inspiration from the soulful and psychedelic sounds of his upbringing, and mixes rock, R&B, jazz, electronic, and world music to create a style all of his own. Under his Herbert Harmonix alias he DJ’s utilizing his New Jersey dance music roots. He’s also the bandleader of the Mystery Klub, his live performance ensemble. In 2020 he released his album Infinity: Sankopha & 87, featuring cover art direction by Ibrahim Ahmed, while in 2022 he released the single “Warrior Woman.” He has performed at Institute for Contemporary Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, MANA Contemporary, South by Southwest, AFROPUNK, bunkr, and more.

Dynasty Handbag—alter ego of performer, visual artist, and actor Jibz Cameron—has presented multimedia work at arts venues such as Pioneer Works, The New Museum of Contemporary Art, The Broad Museum, The Hammer Museum, REDCAT, BAM, and the Centre Pompidou, among others. Cameron is a 2022 Guggenheim fellow, a 2021 United States Artist Award recipient and a 2020 Creative Capital Grant awardee. She produces and hosts Weirdo Night, a monthly comedy and performance event in Los Angeles and New York.

Ed Park’s new novel, Same Bed Different Dreams, will be published by Random House on November 7, 2023. His first one, Personal Days (2008), was a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award. Park was a longtime editor and writer at The Village Voice and a founding editor of The Believer. His short fiction and nonfiction appear in The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, McSweeney's, The Atlantic, and Harper's. Park currently teaches writing at Princeton.

Kembra Pfahler formed The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black (TVHKB) with Samoa Moriki in New York in 1990. A theatrical rock group, TVHKB links a monster aesthetic to a dark feminine archetype. Named in honor of cult horror film heroine Karen Black, Pfahler's band performs amid elaborate hand-constructed sets, in which she acts out transgressive physical feats. Wearing a number of teased black wigs with blacked-out teeth, black stiletto boots, and her body painted blue, pink, red, or yellow, Pfahler heads a team of "The Girls of Karen Black," similarly styled. TVHKB records include: A National Healthcare, Triple X Records (1990); The Anti-Naturalist, Cleopatra Records (1995); Black Date, Cleopatra Records (1998); and the limited edition vinyl LP, Fuck Island (2012) and Slippery When Dead (2020). Pfahler is represented by the gallery Emalin in London and will be releasing a capsule collection for SSENSE, made in collaboration with her longtime friend, designer Rick Owens. For the Broadcast Bash performance, co-founder Samoa Moriki will be on guitar, Gyda Gash on bass, and Eric Robel on drums.

Pioneer Works Broadcast is an ad-free publication that encourages radical thinking across the arts and sciences. Broadcast reflects the spirit of Pioneer Works and extends beyond the space’s physical walls in Brooklyn through narrative-driven journalism, essays, criticism, ruminations, and original videos. Noted contributors include Hilton Als, Elif Batuman, Richard Dawkins, Jennifer Egan, Rivka Galchen, Brian Greene, Hua Hsu, Gary Indiana, Marlon James, Ben Lerner, Eileen Myles, Roger Penrose, and Frank Wilczek.

As artists who work between performance and object-making, Marcel Alcalá, Jibz Cameron, and Young Joon Kwak will speak to their work blurring the distinctions between these mediums. Working in queer communities, these artists explore what we could call "femininity" or "femaleness" in their lives and practices, but treat the subject with a healthy dose of absurdism, satire, and drag. Moderated by Made in L.A. Luce Curatorial Fellow, Ashton Cooper, with audience Q&A to follow.

SHAMBOOM!

Pauline Lay

Amanda-Faye Jimenez

Taylor (the sax bottom) Plenn 

SHABOOM! created by Silky Shoemaker, Lex Vaughn and Paul Soileau, is a spectacle teetering at the edge of disaster. Sharing a mind of anarchy and absurdity, we create environments and actions of pleasure and liberation for our audience. SHABOOM! is not just an experiment with failure, but a jubilant funeral procession for the notion of success, driven by maddening determination and an impressive lack of good judgment.

Titanic Depression

Dynasty Handbag’s Titanic Depression—co-conceived with artist SUE-C—sends up James Cameron’s 1997 Hollywood hit, reimagining it as a hilariously bleak parable of human arrogance in today’s era of runaway, consumerism-driven climate change. Co-presented by New York Live Arts as part of its 2023 Live Arts festival Planet Justice, Titanic Depression is Dynasty Handbag’s first major institutional commission in nearly eight years.

MAY 20 – 21
DOORS: 7:30PM START: 8:30PM
BUY TICKETS FOR SATURDAY, MAY 20
BUY TICKETS SUNDAY, MAY 21

More so a live multimedia event than solely performance, Titanic Depression combines animation, video, soundscapes and improvisation into a story about how a ship advertised as unsinkable strikes an iceberg on its maiden voyage and sinks; fitted with too few lifeboats, Titanic’s poor, third class passengers were largely left behind as the vessel’s wealthier occupants were rushed to safety. The disaster became a potent symbol of the haves versus the have nots.

Turned into numerous films—the most financially successful being Cameron’s—this well-worn narrative of class and gender inequality is, in the hands of Handbag’s outrageous physicality and unique improvisational skills, wildly digressed, veering from Hollywood’s obsession with disaster plots to our morbid fascination with death—namely, our own. She plays various characters in the film, such as “Rose,'' who sparks a torrid, interspecies romance with “Jack,” a mute octopus escaping the warming seas by stowing away on the ship disguised as a giant ladies hat. While the iceberg melts in balmy weather before the Titanic reaches it, the vessel goes down anyway in a tour de force of nonsensical, collective doom—a tragicomedy of our own making that no amount of metal straws or fastidiously-sorted recycling will fix. At a time of climate crisis on seemingly every front, “levity arises out of the sheer pressure cooker of the era we are collectively experiencing,” as the artist has noted. 

About The Artists

Jibz Cameron (Co-creator, Writer, Performer) The peerlessly subversive, wacky, dark, and dystopian Dynasty Handbag—alter ego of performer, visual artist, actor, and writer Jibz Cameron—quite literally bites the hand that feeds her; she often parodies queer liberals and the institutions they support, as well as herself. Playing multiple characters who usually end up breaking down, slipping into other mental dimensions, or otherwise doing the wrong things, she “combats the terror of being alive," as she's previously written, by failing spectacularly. Cameron’s work as Dynasty Handbag has spanned over 20 years and has been presented at arts venues such as The New Museum of Contemporary Art, The Broad Museum, The Hammer Museum, REDCAT, BAM, and the Centre Pompidou, among others. She has been heralded by the New York Times as “the funniest and most pitch perfect performance seen in years” and “outrageously smart, grotesque and innovative” by The New Yorker. Cameron is a 2022 Guggenheim fellow, a 2021 United States Artist Award recipient and a 2020 Creative Capital Grant awardee. She produces and hosts Weirdo Night, a monthly comedy and performance event in Los Angeles and New York. Her film Weirdo Night is an official 2020 Sundance Film Festival selection.


Maraih Garnett (Visual Director) Mariah Garnett’s films and installations deconstructs the conventional hierarchy between filmmaker and subject, a mode that has historically been the purview of directors who possess economic, racial and gender privilege. Garnett is a 2019 Guggenheim Fellow in Film/Video and holds an MFA from Calarts and a BA from Brown University. Recent solo exhibitions include Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston, Commonwealth + Council, a 10 year survey of her work at the LA Municipal Art Gallery, and Sundance Film Festival, 2021. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The New Yorker, Art Forum, Bomb among others and has screened and exhibited internationally at The New Museum, Brooklyn Academy Of Music (BAM), REDCAT, Made in LA (Hammer Museum Biennial), The Metropolitan Arts Centre (Tate Belfast), CPH:DOX, Hot Docs, NY Film Festival, and BFI London. She is an Assistant Professor of Media at UC San Diego, and lives and works in Los Angeles.

Chloe Alexandra Thompson (Technical Director / Sound Design) is a Cree, Canadian, interdisciplinary artist and sound designer. Thompson approaches sound as a mode of connection—embracing the kinesthetic agency of sound to compose abstract feats of spatialized audio recording and synthesis. Her work engages tactics of material minimalism to create site-specific installations that sculpt droning, maximalist experiences out of space and sound. Using audio programming software, computational processing, and acoustic instruments, Thompson’s work seeks to create connection by guiding audience participants through these augmented experiences. In January 2021, Cycling ‘74, announced Thompson as one of the first Max Certified Trainers. Her sound design has been featured in the works of artists across the fields of music, performance, TV and film. She is presently part of the Working Consortium in developing First Nations Performing Arts.

Sacha Yanow (Dramaturg) is a NYC/Lenapehoking based performance artist and actor. Their solo practice is rooted in theater, queer performance and radical jewish tradition, using humor and physicality to explore themes of gender, aging, loss and diaspora. Sacha's work has been presented by venues including MoMA PS1, Danspace Project, Joe's Pub, and the New Museum in NYC; PICA’s TBA Festival/Cooley Gallery at Reed College in Portland, OR; and Festival Theaterformen in Hanover, Germany. They have received residency support from Baryshnikov Arts Center, Denniston Hill, LIFT Festival UK, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Mass MoCA and Yaddo, among others. They served as Director of Art Matters Foundation for 12 years, and previously worked at The Kitchen as Director of Operations.

Amanda Verwey (Co-Writer/Producer) is a queer WGA writer living in Los Angeles, California. In 2016, Amanda co- wrote with performance artist Jibz Cameron the full-length one-women show Good Morning Evening Feelings, which premiered at The Kitchen, NYC and was later turned into a web series by JASH Productions (awarded Audience Choice Best Experimental Short Film, Outfest 2017). In 2017, Amanda co-wrote the short film Tooth and Nail with director Sara Shaw, which premiered at SXSW (awarded Audience Choice for Best Short Film, Fusion Film Festival 2018 and Best Narrative Short, Outfest 2018.) In 2019, her feature script 'Tooth & Nail', based on the short, won the Richard Vague Production Fund Grant from Tisch. In 2020, she sold a series to FX. Amanda is currently in development on a grindhouse feature with Endeavor Content and Flame Ventures. She is also developing a limited series based on the book The Secret Life of a Satanist, the only authorized biography of Anton LaVey.

Amy Von Harrington (Animation) amy vh. visual artist: collage, video, performance, thought experimentor, friend, polarity practitioner, constellation facilitator, works in accounting. Lives with dogs, in LA and the existential briar patch. Loves life. Has lots of questions.

Sue Slagle (SUE-C) is an award-winning artist, engineer and educator whose work in “real time cinema” presents a new, imaginative perspective on live performance. Her evolution as a new media artist began in late-90s San Francisco where she was an influential member of the electronic music scene, owning the experimental record label Orthlorng Musork, organizing audio-visual cultural events and teaching the first creative coding classes in Max Software. After finishing her masters degree in engineering at UC Berkeley she moved to Oakland where she became co-owner of the Ego Park gallery and helped launch the First Friday art walks. Sue is a Creative Capital awardee and MacDowell Fellow and has been covered in The Wire magazine, BoingBoing and the MIT Press book Programming Media. She has performed at the Library of Congress, REDCAT, Ars Electronica, MUTEK, SONAR, Ann Arbor Film Festival, NPR’s Tiny Desk and Transmediale, collaborating with musicians such as Morton Subotnick, Luc Ferrari, Laetitia Sonami, AGF, Paul DeMarinis, Wobbly, Ava Mendoza and Negativland.

Dynasty Handbag: Titanic Depression was commissioned by Pioneer Works and curated by David Everitt Howe. It is co-presented by New York Live Arts as part of Live Ideas 2023: Planet Justice. The performance is made possible with support from Creative Capital, The Guggenheim Foundation, Ballroom Marfa, Center for Performance Research, Chorus Foundation, and MacDowell.

The New York Live Arts 2023 Live Ideas festival, Planet Justice: Are you here for it*?, is co-curated with Slow Factory and explores the idea that climate justice is rooted in social justice, anti-colonialism, global collaboration, human rights, and the rights of nature to thrive.
