Superman Recites Selections from 'The Bell Jar' and Other Works by Sylvia Plath 1999

In a dark no-place evocative of Superman's own psychic 'Fortress of Solitude' the alienated Man of Steel recites those sections of Plath's writings that utilize the image of the bell jar. Superman directs these lines to Kandor, the bell jar city that represents his own traumatic past, for he is the only surviving member of a planet that has been destroyed. Kandor now sits, frozen in time, a perpetual reminder of his inability to escape that past, and his alienated relationship to his present world. For us, Kandor is an image of a time that never was — the utopian city of the future that never came to be.

The Startled Faction (a sensitivity training) N/A

During a sensitivity training held in Chicago, nine characters with varying degrees of aptitude and motivation rehearse symptoms of and methods for avoiding ambiguous labor (work outside one’s job description). The prevailing question for the characters is whether to ‘lean in’ or to resist through strategies of withdrawal, redaction, and retreat. The curriculum is complicated by scenes drawn from the 1954 film Salt of the Earth, a semi-fictional account of a strike at a New Mexico zinc mine wherein the status of the women’s domestic labor is viewed through the strike’s racial and economic urgencies. The group is drawn into this contestation by the film’s soundtrack and a woman attempting to escape becoming its protagonist. Ambiguous labor leaks between the nine characters as they confront the social instruments for the expression of complaint, anger, and suffering. Some learn to feign surprise and incompetence and to conspicuously demonstrate fatigue.

The Chirologic Remedy N/A

The Chironomic Remedy, Sullivan investigates the complex ways in which communication takes place through manipulation of the Acting, as exemplified in the majority of contemporary films and television series, aspires to a state of transparency. The demands of narrative realism—today’s dominant cultural mode—conspire to disguise the artifice of performance. The desire for a credible experience in television is so strong that “reality TV,” a genre of performance that elides its own particular kind of acting, has become the most important recent development.

Tis Pity She's A Fluxus Whore N/A

brings together two specific references from the history of theater and that of performance art. Invited to exhibit at the Wadsworth Atheneum in Connecticut, Sullivan explored the history of the theater connected to the museum, focusing on A. Everett “Chick” Austin. Amateur actor and director of the Wadsworth Atheneum since 1927, Austin was forced to submit his resignation in 1943, following a scandal created by his staging of ‘Tis Pity She’s a Whore, a tragedy written by the English playwright John Ford in 1633.

Triangle of Need N/A

Chicago-based theater and film artist Catherine Sullivan’s ambitious new work, Triangle of Need, introduces “Neanderthals,” e-mail scams, and figure skating into Vizcaya Museum and Gardens' lush and seemingly placid environment. The resulting installation is at once visually seductive and conceptually alienating, mixing cinematic conventions with difficult and abstract ideas about evolution, human behavior, and social inequality.
