Don’t miss the “Ecstatic Decrepitude” exhibit in Frenchtown, New Jersey!!

There’s just 10 more days left to see the “Ecstatic Decrepitude” exhibit at Artyard in Frenchtown, New Jersey!!

This installation is a massive, once-in-a-lifetime collection of masks, puppets, books, paper maché relief work, and paintings that convey Peter Schumann’s deep commitment to the creative and political work which unites artists and communities in celebration and protest. Ecstatic Decrepitude occupies two floors of Artyard’s gallery space: the downstairs featuring historic never-before displayed woodcuts, brand new giant books, and paintings in black and white; the upstairs overflowing with giant paper maché sculpture, sweeping multi-chrome paintings, masks and objects. A variety of Banners & Booklets by Bread & Puppet Press are for sale on site!

Mark is the creative mind behind “I am in here.” a short film that gives an entertainingly illustrative glimpse of Mark’s experience living with a disability that affects his ability to communicate. Emily is his communication partner and, also, the film’s producer. The screening is followed by a Q and A that is facilitated by Mark using “Supported Typing.”
