Mourn for Buildings

Maxx Sizeler

Comment card written in response to an exhibit by artist Maxx Sizeler at 2426 Bradish Place on May 19, 2007.\r\n\r\nComplete text of card: \"I mourn some--well, a lot. I mourn for a lot of buildings, houses and structures I grew up seeing--got used to seeing--took for granted they\'d always be there. Now I\'m also amazed at the amoung of buildings and structures that have been renovated and are looking their best. Jeannie Detweiler.\"\r\n\r\n\"NEIGHBORHOODS: 2426 BRADISH PLACE\" was a multidisciplinary installation, the third in a series, that took place in the gutted ground floor of the home of Michelle Levine and Clay Thomas on May 19th, 2007. Michelle is an artist who is currently rebuilding her house and studio in the Tulane/Gravier neighborhood. Through the use of interviews with neighbors, soundscapes, live music, drawing, photography, and sculpture, this event confronted the range of issues the community is experiencing as they revitalize this neighborhood.\r\n
