NadaDada was fabulous!







Five days of art, parties, people, the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/22/us/22reno.html?_r=6) and fun. NadaDada Motel was in the media everywhere. It was amazing. The artist were amazing. And the people who showed up to look at the art were full of fun and great questions. Many artist sold their work, others gave away pages of books to color. One of the rooms everyone was talking about, the Sugar Room, was an experience all it's own. Many felt strange, but the kids loved it. There were room that were not for the kids - the room of a 1,000 dildos. Yeah, that was funny and many people were hanging out their playing games like dildo golf and dildo chess - there was bed made out of vibrating dildos. It was interesting. And then the Mud People were there - they had a room but it was a sight to see them outside, moving slowly to their own rhythm constructing a sculpture made from sticks and twigs. There was Cindy Gunn's room full of ceramic sea anemones. Here are some images of my room, Patty Atcheson Melton's room and Adrian Kershaw's room. Adrian and I partied and hung out in her room, because mine was too dark with the black lights. It was huge this year!!!
