Laugh Seriously is a collaborative show based on a weird tracking of subject and object with in a fictional world of serious laughter. Duguid and Olson have excavated their gray matter and come up with a spine-tingling exhibition. The audience is invited to literally step directly into this duo's work that features a laughing-gas chamber and an oxygen chamber, a homemade clown car, a joke wall, a chess game, and a map of what it all means.
While trying to fulfill the comedic rolls of the "straight man" and the "crack up" this team has created a serious of work that explores leisure, joke, and concentration. The opening itself will be a riot, with a beer party opening night along with a myriad of performances, including a hundred yard dash. Please dress accordingly and bring proper identification.
Meg Duguid is a smiler, a laugher, and a joker. Utilizing the structures of comedy she explores the role humor plays in culture. Meg received her MFA from Bard College in 2005 and her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1999. She has exhibited and performed at the Chicago Cultural Center, the DUMBO arts festival, The Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, Flux Factory in Queens, and 667 Shotwell in San Francisco.
Catie Olson inevitably incorporates humor into her work. She captures the humor bent ideas with still and motion film. Catie received her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2000 and a BS from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1995. Her work has been shown in various galleries and venues in Chicago. Some of Catie's short films have also been on travelling road shows throughout the US.

BSD Butcher Shop Dogmatic presents As long as grass grows and water runs : New work by Clint Bargers and Tim Ridlen

BSD Butcher Shop Dogmatic presents
As long as grass grows and water runs
New work by Clint Bargers and Tim Ridlen
May 27th, 2006-June 17th, 2006
Opening reception Saturday May 27th 6-10pm
The landscape finds its definitive characteristics, not in the physical but in the imaginary. One result of westward expansion in American history is the rise of an imagined landscape, or a utopian space. Individuals visualize these utopian spaces via the excesses of culture. Together the works of Clint Bargers and Tim Ridlen address issues surrounding individualism, cultural excess, history, and landscape.
Clint Bargers' sculptures are colored with the vocabulary of the low-life and the drifter, the post-industrial generation's contemporary America. By combining a wide range of media, his work illustrates an introspective, schizophrenic mythology that parallels larger socio-political issues.
Tim Ridlen's photographs and videos attempt to assert control over a reality built on memories and movies. Operating behind and in front of the camera, the protagonist struggles against failure, isolation, and physical space to articulate an intimate yet violent relationship with actuality. Side by side, they sort out history, geography, and culture to re-imagine the American landscape.
The contemporary notion of the American landscape is mythic and not so easily defined by its physical boundaries as it is by its imaginary borders. The works of Bargers and Ridlen attempt to dismantle the conceit of the American myth of westward expansion that is the advent of this imaginary landscape. By isolating the individualism, history, and geography that's at the core of this utopian space, they sort through the excess of culture to re-imagine the American landscape as a multiplicity of form and context.
