The Loose Organization of Surreal Ethereal Realists: Stephen Pellegrino
Mr. Pellegrino has been creating experimental and inter-disciplinary performance works since 1975. He has been the recipient of numerous grants, commissions, and residencies. In March of 2005 he will be attending a residency with composer/saxophonist Henry Threadgill at the Atlantic Arts Center. Since the early 80's he has been engaged in an on going multi-sectional work called DRYWALL. The impetus behind this series is the integration of his bread labor as a plasterer and his shamanistic role as an artist. An entire mythos and culture is built on this construction milieu, utilizing tools and process as the basis for rituals, music and dance/movement sections.The Man from 'NYAYZAR is the 25th section. These performance pieces range from solo works to full scale operatic spectacles not necessarily confined to theatrical spaces. This year he will be celebrating his 30th year of creating original inter-disciplinary performances.
