'Transmissions' explores the upsurge in performance-related practice that continues to suffuse the contemporary art world. A series of reportage films and collaborations on SHOWstudio during 2005-2007, created as a diary documenting each event live, 'Transmissions' captures a portrait of the scene though artist-created footage, short film, ephemera and live imagery
Carl Hopgood
Carl Hopgood was the latest artist to exhibit in The George & Dragon's White Cubicle gallery -brainchild of energetic gallerist, curator and magazine publisher Pablo Leon De La Barra- in which the confines of a small tatty loo actually represent a kind of freedom to present anything. Hopgood plastered the cubicle with 'Hustler Freeze': many tiny pictures of men advertising themselves for sex as published in gay magazines. Hopgood also treated us to his own live huster dance performaance as he took to a makeshift podium and danced a buffed-up gyration to Omaha's anthemic "You came into my life".
