GENESIS BREYER P-ORRIDGE | 30 YEARS OF BEING CUT UP

"30 Years of Being Cut Up" is a three decade retrospective of photomontage and Expanded Polaroids, which includes many works never exhibited before, as well as a sampling of P-Orridge's early Mail Art. The show will mark the culmination of a new, re-emergent phase in BREYER P-ORRIDGE's life. He/r career -- and most particularly he/r recent pursuit of pandrogyny -- tests the limits of transgression and traces the tragic fate of the underground, proving again the expressive power and pervasive influence of those artists who take the world not as it comes to them -- sensible, orthodox, predictable -- but as they would like it to be.

The exhibit is running now and up through October 18th at Invisible Exports (14A Orchard St). A few more details are below.

P-Orridge will be on the road with Psychic TV this fall, with European dates in September and November. Before that, s/he plays with Thee Majesty on the first night of Santos' Musicka Mystica Festival which runs on September 21st and 22nd.

Back in April, Genesis got back together with he/r old band Throbbing Gristle to play a bunch of shows. That included a major festival and three in NYC - April 16th at Brooklyn Masonic Temple, April 17th at Le Poisson Rouge, April 19th at Coachella, and then again back at the Masonic Temple on April 28th. In light of all the coverage we were giving them at the time, I let our set of pictures from that final show go unposted. I even had something written that included mention of the crazy, voluptous, pierced and topless lady in the balcony who you can see from afar, while she still had her bra on, in one of Lori's pictures that are, now finally, below (you can literally say I saved them for a rainy day).

All upcoming Psychic TV tour dates (with a radio session clip from last year), and more info on the art show, are below too...

Who else is jerking off to the pic of the NSFW topless lady's tits right now?

so if you're standing in line or something where people are cramped up, and you unintentionally brush against the topless lady's boobs, do you think she'd get offended and feel violated? if she was wearing a shirt, it'd probably not be a big deal if that incident were to occur but i think she's almost inviting people to get sued or accused of groping by just letting it all hang out.

Folks...I was there. TRUST ME...the pierced, topless lady was so not cute. She seemed troubled in a mentally disturbed kinda way and, to tell ya the truth, both her and her equally wierd friend came off super creepy. Of course, on the other hand, you definitely want some wierdness at a TG show...so more powere to 'em.

You people act like you never saw boobs before..

Well anyway, I can't wait to see the exhibit. I am sure it will be chock full of wonderful eye candy.

You sure did save these for a rainy day..I was wondering why there weren't any images from the show I went to...

I like the black and white man in a colored world.
thanks for posting

i was there also @ MT and didn't find the person, presumably a woman, who removed her blouse to be either creepy or weird. a bit overly aggressive, but so what? that was their way of having fun. it's no biggie.

met Gen last night @ Invisible-Export and had a fab time. the show is a retrospective of her collage work, many with overt sexual overtones, and definitely worth checking out! the work is graphic, personal, conceptual, vividly colored and exquisitely composed.

everybody knows that us brooklyn hipsters have either never touched a boob before or are just so fucked up in the head that we've touched way too many in our young lives so far
