A fundraising event for Kantor's Berlin Trial - Concert/Performance/Video

Istvan Kantor
Featuring Istvan Kantor, MachineSexActionGroup, DJ SAS (Short Attention Span)
You are invited to kick out the new year with
Neoist singer/subvertainer Istvan Kantor and
convulse to the beat of his hyper-decadent
loopmachine folk anthems, high-tech videos and
seizure like machine-sex. The art-crime
mastermind, recipient of the 2004 Governor
General's Award, is temporarily back fin Toronto
from Berlin and will appear at the Drake on
January 1 for a concert/performance integrating
his new songs, video and action works. His video
clips will include excerpts of his most recent
museum interventions executed in Berlin,
documenting his arrest at the Hamburger Bahnhof,
Berlin's monumental contemporary art museum.
Kantor will be accompanied by members of MachineSexActionGroup.
Istvan Kantor aka Monty Cantsin, the Neoist
open-pop-star, is best known in the art world for
his passionate engagement and unquenchable thirst
to subvert the rules of the institutionalized
system of art. He was arrested and charged by the
Polizei in Berlin on Nov 30 after splashing some
of his own blood on the white wall right behind a
gold Michael Jackson statue at the Flick
Collection*. Besides trying to raise money to
cover part of his trial expenses Kantor aims to
make his own statement concerning the controversy
surrounding his most recent crime. He must return
to Germany to face the authorities of "Der
Polizeipräsident" right after his
concert/performance at the Drake.
Kantor is an artist-in-residence at the Podewil -
Center for Contemporary Arts in Berlin-Mitte
since Aug. 2004, creating new performances,
videos, sound and robotic art, collaborating with
local and international artists, working on site
specific in-situ events throughout the Eastern
part of the city.
*Museum officials and the media accused Kantor
for trying to destroy the golden statue, "Michael
Jackson with Bubbles" by Paul McCarthy. Kantor
denies all accusation. He picked the golden
figure of Jackson, reflecting childish innocence,
to be the foreground image of his carefully
designed blood-x master piece, entitled "Immortal
Gift." With his ultimate gesture Kantor's
intended to add a new piece to the FLICK
COLLECTION presently on display at Hamburger
Bahnhof. Christian Flick, the creator of the
collection, is the grandson of a Nazi
industrialist who made his millions through slave
labour during WW II. Mr. Flick invested the
family's fortune into contemporary art and
recently he has donated his entire collection to
the German state. The Flick Collection story
served as a perfect background for Kantor to
comment on the historical metamorphose of blood
and gold, a recurring subject of his "Blood
Campaign" gesamtkunstwerk in progress since 1979.

In the spring of 2005, Creative Capital
Foundation will accept proposals for its 2005-06
grant cycle supporting work in the performing
arts and emerging fields. The nonprofit arts
organization has implemented a new application
process: to apply for a grant, artists must first

www.creative-capital.org. The deadline for

This year, innovative literature has been added
to the emerging fields category. According to
Sean Elwood, director of grantmaking & artist
services, "We define innovative literature as
work created by writers who challenge traditional
notions of literary forms and concepts. We are
interested in projects by literary artists who
are striving to express themselves in alternative
ways through manipulating language, formal
structures, or new processes." Innovative
literature may include projects working in or
transcending the genre categories of poetry,
fiction, and creative nonfiction.
As in past grant rounds, forty funded projects
will receive approximately $400,000 in initial
grants. In addition, grantees are eligible for
follow-up support in the form of advisory
services and additional financial assistance.
Now in its fifth year, the New York-based
foundation has awarded more than $3.2 million in
grants and supplemental support to 158 artists
from 24 states and the District of Columbia.
Creative Capital is currently in the process of
