Casting Call For The Untitled Art Project

Way too early.....

It’s 5:30 am on Sunday the 19th of July 2009 and a small group of artists are lined up at the White Columns down on Horatio St.  We all wait anxiously as open casting calls take place for a reality TV project starring thirteen aspiring artists. The show is being developed by Bravo which brings Pretty Matches and the Emmy-nominated Magical Elves (”Top Chef,” “Project Runway”) and Eli Holzman, to produce an hour long TV Show. The artists will go against one another in a competition for a gallery show and win some USD’s.  It was the first and most likely last time I do something like that.  I had a great time and met some wonderful people and learned way too much about myself.
