"Interview with Summer Above Curator, Wallace Whitney"

Please click through to "The Nicola Midnight St. Claire" and read this interview with Wallace Whitney, curator of "Summer Above." This makes an interesting read whether or not you have gotten a chance to come by Tiger Strikes Asteroid to see the show (although I highly recommend that you do).

"The show looks nice at TSA, I realized at the opening it was the third show I have created since September (besides my normal CANADA co-curation duties) and that I have also done two solo shows of my own work since October.  So that, plus a room full of Philly's hip-wa-zee, plus a really nice low-pressure system, and several beers I was feeling great!  As far as the show there, I felt like I couldn't really describe it until I actually saw it installed.  It featured 4 artists, 2 Canada vets, Joanna Malinowska and Matt Connors, both of whom I have known for years now in New York and Lauren Luloff who I met maybe a year ago and who is my new go-to artist/excellent person and Roger Van Voorhees who I barely know at all.  So it was a way of extending myself comfortably, reaching for a brass ring while lying in a comfy bed. "  - Wallace Whitney
