Lovewarz in action/on tour
(please tell us if you took this picture, i couldn't find a credit)
Lovewarz is a collaborative art-making effort comprised of Siobhan Aluvalot and Sara thustra, two dynamically-dressed SF-based performance/visual artists. Last year they made, released and toured with their fantastic short film "Baby Xalm Down Bye," which is full of complicated takes on misogyny, femme solidarity, loneliness, non/monogamy and dolphins and includes both live performances edited in with pre-written footage. Also includes (as per everything I post about apparently) great outfits and some stellar contributions from another terrific local artist, Sy Wagon. Instead of doing a regular film tour where people are like "Ahem look at my celluloid" Lovewarz performed live every night with shifting narratives and intense feelings, just for you, and gave away hundreds of copies of their movie for everyone to enjoy/freak out about.
If you were lucky enough to catch Siobhan and Sara on tour last year with Gravy Train!!!! then you know just how exciting their projects, whether live or filmed, are, but if not, have no fear! Below I am posting some short clips from "Baby Xalm Down Bye" as well as the music videos they did for Younger Lovers (Brontez from Gravy Train!!!!'s solo project). If you'd like a copy of their DVD, you can order a copy of finery issue 5, visit needles & pens diy bookshop/gallery in SF or email lovewarz@yahoo.com. Be very excited, because they are currently making their new film as we speak!
