FUNraiser!

The fundraiser was an amazing success. From showing your genitals, to the band's cake walk, to the date auction, to the spin the bottle games, to the silent art auction, to the food eating contest it was all tons of FUN and raised lots of money. We couldn't have done it without all of our amazing guests. THANKS FOR CUMMING!

How Art Superstars Cope With Rejection

The Joanna... Once Upon A Time October of 2008

A live guerrilla performance at an art opening at the Joanna, a venue which had previously rejected Performance Art Lab's request to have a show there. Performance Art Lab arrived at the venue by limo, in glamorous clothing. After a brief, staged, papparazzied red carpet entrance, the collective then striped down to reveal shirts that read "YOU WOULDN'T LET US HAVE A SHOW HERE". After five uncomfortable minutes the collective left the venue to return with shirts that declared that P.A.L. was "OVER IT AND READY TO DRINK FREE BEER"

Special Thanks to John Reed!!!! It only took 6 months!

Once upon a time Performance Art Lab, the creators of sexyATTACK asked to do a show at the Joanna and were rejected. This was before sexyATTACK even existed.

Now we are famous.

So we get invited to do these kinds of things.

Come Experience Performance Art Lab

at one of the coolest art venues in Houston.

***The Hip Scene*** ((((((so rad))))))

The Hipster Scum is a performance about "the culture of cool" that dominates the American counterculture. It consisted of various artists dressed and acting as stereotypical hipsters. We dressed in all white to designate ourselves as archetypal hipsters rather than actual hipsters. The performance resulted in the disapproval of our appearance from the general hipster population.

Rave Baby!!!

Performance Art Lab's NICKTEEL, Aisen Chacin, and Tyson Urich turned a shopping cart into a portable RAVE machine for WestFest.

portable INSTANT dance PARTY!

Marcela Descalzi se descalza!!!

FACILITATE!!!

Yes, we have succeded!!! I, Elia Arce will be handing the torch to Nancy Douthey and Julia Claire Wallace, long time contributers to the Performance Art Lab, who will continue to facilitate the lab. 

Stay put for a private performative ceremonial ritual that will mark the beginning of a new era!

All new and old participants of the Performance Art Lab will be cordially invited.
