September 17
Up late and
still have not heard the restrictions for my installation location.
Spent the
morning running around to various hardware stores passing a beautifully simple
statue of Fedor Dostoevsky, an icon of Russian literature.
to locate
supplies and to visit one of St. Peterburgs new art spaces that has some amazing photography shows. A mammoth factory
building that has been converted into an arts center where we hung out on the patio.
Went over to
Liteniyy to work in Ed Woodham’s store front where his performances will be
this weekend. Afterwards he, Andrea Steudel and myself went to my space to
further clean and plan out my installation.
Talked with
the principal of the school located inside one of the buildings surrounding the park
where BLUE will be installed.
Went back to
the hotel and got ready to have dinner with several artists tonight at a
Georgian restaurant. That is a former part of the Soviet Union that is supposed
to have the best of so many things.
Afterwards I
walked with Linda Hesh, a DC artist, and her husband Eric to meet up with the others at the
Terminal Bar. This place we walk by on the way to the Market. It was so much
fun hanging out with everyone.
To bed at 3am.
