BIOGRAPHY

MICHELLE HANDELMAN uses video, live performance and photography to make

confrontational works that explore the sublime in its various forms of excess and

nothingness. Her background is a study in opposites raised during the late 60s/early

70s, Handelman split her time between Chicago, where her mother was a fixture in the

art world, and Los Angeles, where her father was part of the counterculture sex

industry. Over the years Handelman has voraciously traversed both these worlds,

developing a body of work that investigates ways of looking at the forbidden and

revealing dark, subconscious layers of outsider agency.

My work can be best described by theorist Helene Cixous ideas of Visceral Feminism:

aggressively traversing the corporeal landscape in its various forms of excess and

undress, while simultaneously giving it up for the viewer in an overflow of visual and

psychological sensations. Michelle Handelman

In the mid 90s Handelman directed and produced the feature documentary BloodSisters

(1999 Bravo award), an in-depth look at the San Francisco Leatherdyke scene that has

just been re-released by the Tribeca Film Institute s Reframe Collection. Her videos have

screened internationally including Georges Pompidou Centre, Paris; ICA, London; MIT

List Visual Arts Center; American Film Institute and 3LD Art & Technology Center, NYC.

Her performances have been featured at Participant, Inc., NYC; Exit Art, NYC; Performa

05, the first biennial of visual performance; 3LD Art & Technology Center, NYC; Jack the

Pelican, Brooklyn and The Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art. Recent projects

include Dorian, a cinematic perfume (touring); The Laughing Lounge for Performa 05

curated by Roselee Goldberg; This Delicate Monster (touring); Passerby for

the show public.exe: Public Execution curated by Anne Ellegood and Michele Thursz;

and DJ Spooky vs. WebSpinstress M an animated collaboration with Paul Miller AKA DJ

Spooky. In 2007 Bloomingdale s chose Handelman s work for their Fall Art Campaign.

Before moving to New York in 1999 Handelman collaborated for many years with

Monte Cazazza, a pioneer of the Industrial music scene in San Francisco. Their explicit

film Catscan broke into the art world through a series of guerrilla actions and together

they built several bodies of work including The Torture Series, the video Hope (1995

Sony Visions Award) and the essay The Cereal Box Conspiracy Against the Developing

Mind, published in Apocalypse Culture 2, by Feral House Press. While in San Francisco

Handelman collaborated with Eric Werner, co-founder of the industrial performance

group Survival Research Laboratories, performed in several pieces by Lynn Hersman-

Leeson, and worked on Jon Moritsugu s production Terminal USA .

Her fiction and critical writing appear in several anthologies including Inappropriate

Behaviour (Serpents Tail, London 2001) and Herotica 3 edited by Susie Bright (Plume

Books, SF 1994). Her work is in the collection of Moscow Museum of Contemporary

Art; di Rosa Foundation and Preserve, Napa, California; and Zabludowicz Art Trust,

London. Handelman is an Associate Professor in the film/video department at the

Massachusetts College of Art and Design, Boston. She lives in Brooklyn.
