TV Carnage is doing a nation wide tour for it's new DVD Let's Work it Out!. This season six (pack) edition of TV Carnage will be a workout not just for your body, but for your mind. Whether you are of the girls or of the guys, this baby will tone, shape, and mutate everything from above your eyes to below your thighs. In fact, as we like to say around here, 'Say goodbye to your body!' because a completely new, unrecognizable you is just around the corner! This DVD is compiled with clips from over 100 exercise videos from the 80's thru the early 90's and features actual fitness gurus like: O.J., Dolph Lundgren, Elmo, Dixie Carter, Marky Mark, Alyssa Milano, a Scientologist, a nice lady with brown hair, children, numerous creeps, grifters, drifters, weight lifters, doctors, and, of course, porn stars.
TV Carnage has been touring for years now and is featured in publications such as VICE MAGAZINE, NME, SHARPEWORLD, FORT DRASIC, OK FLAVOR, DAILY CANDY and has been shown in festivals and porn theatres throughout North America, Europe and Japan. You can check out some of the videos on www.youtube.com/tvcarnage and check out our press coverage on www.tvcarnage.com/press. We always get a great turnout when on tour, and people always have fun at the live shows so we are ecstatic about this year's tour.

Room 1
SPORTS
SPORTS is an interactive multimedia experience by Dave Greber, Adam Montegut, Roel Miranda, Peter Leonard, and Phil Rached.
Chicanes or "strategically placed objects", are used to slow traffic entering an area so that individuals can be monitored and evaluated. In SPORTS, we impede the progress of the gallery-goer through periodic reconfigurations of our chicanes in order to subvert typical gallery-opening pedestrian-patterns.
Room 2: Morgana King
ACNO Annex
This is not an art show. The second room of The Front will be open for non-profit business, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays 10-5, and for scheduled special events throughout the month. One of the missions of the Arts Council of New Orleans Public Art Department is community outreach and education. This "exhibit" is a foray into bridging the gap between administrators, artists, and the community. It is a space to share ideas, resources, and examples to advance public art in New Orleans and to assist artists in preparing materials for submissions.
Rooms 3 & 4
TILL MORNING
Till Morning is a group exhibition featuring the work of Rachel DeTrinis, Kelly Gazlay, and Erika Somogyi. These three artists are all makers of things, using handmade principles of construction, painting, and newer media. The issue of time arises in the works, through the visibly repetitious processes used by the artists in the act of creation, and a space embedded in Americana traditions and the History of Pop Culture. The exhibition concentrates on relationships that become fixed, while the world changes and moves forth, the two, or group of individuals, remain permanently engaged and rooted in time. Peter and Wendy, and the brood of children, all try exhaustibly to protest this unreliable world, an irregular state of being, in which one cannot predict or control any outcome. The world of Neverland also attracted Michael Jackson, to stop time and stay the same in an eternal state of bliss.
