01.26.2013 // SOAP FACTORY
I recently visited The Soap Factory in Minneapolis, MN to discuss a couple of opportunities in the coming year. I will be working with them on a site-specific project at The Union Depot in St. Paul, MN in conjunction with the Northern Spark Festival on June 8th, 2013. In addition, I will have a larger performance and installation featured at The Soap Factory at an as yet undecided date in 2014.

I have a solo show coming up in September at Culture Room in Bushwick. Details on reception to follow but it opens mid-September. I think it'll be called 'Untitled (Freedom)'.

Just finished installing some new work for the Wassaic Project Summer Festival. Come check it out, the show runs from June 16th until the beginning of September. They have their big festival on August 3-5, really fun, bands, countryside, a goat named pantyhose, all good things.

Matthew Schrader
The opening reception is October 26th from 6-9PM. Come by and check it out if you are in NYC. The show runs until December 3rd.
On another note, I have added a few spreads from an untitled book I just finished with Nicole Killian. They are up in the 'Design' section and the book itself will be available for purchase soon. Stay tuned for announcements about our book launch, it is in the works!
8.14.2011 // NEW WRITING AND PERFORMANCE EXPLANATION
I am in the dead center of my residency upstate. So far, it has been productive and relaxing, a much needed combination. I am working on two new performances and multiple new drawings. I am also trying to write the pilot episode for my sitcom, Rocklyn. But don't get excited, it is taking me forever, I am not a comedy writer.
I added some textual explanations for some of my older performances that might help to explain things a bit. I also updated my 'Writing' page with a good portion of my older writing.
7.24.2011 // NEW DRAWINGS
Nine new drawings are up now in my 'Drawings' section. They were all made over the course of
the last year in my studio in Brooklyn. Look for a full website update sometime during or immediately
after my upcoming residency.
6.19.2011 // WASSAIC PROJECT
I am headed to The Wassaic Project this summer for a month long
residency in August, from the 2nd-31st. They are an awesome group
and well worth checking out!
Come visit during the Summer Festival August 5th-7th for music, art, performances, camping, and beers!
