Pure Products USA | Ligorano/Reese Collaboration in Art
Towards a Surreal Politik
In 1992, we began Pure Products of America as a series of multiple editions focusing on the impact of marketing on politics. Over the past 17 years, the series has expanded and now includes 14 pieces running the gamut from snow globes to underwear (our underwear was the first to pack a political message), to happy meals.
Each object is signed and numbered in various sized editions. When we introduce Pure Products, we send some of them as gifts to government officials. Presidents Obama, Bush, and Clinton, members of the Supreme Court and various Senators and Congressional representatives have all received a pure product at one time or another.
Pure Products also function as discreet elements in installations. The installations The Bible Belt, Pillars of the Clean Order, and Steel Nipples incorporated them in sculptural settings with video and other media. In 2001, we expanded on this idea with the inauguration of an online retail website as part of the project.
Each piece is grounded within a framework that satirizes political values and, often, lampoons morality. Some pure products, like Line Up and Contract with America underwear, became media sensations, reported in the press, on television and radio. The commentary surrounding the artwork is a mixture of absurdity and culture jamming, amplifying how much the media interprets and misinterprets contemporary art and blurs the connections between art, activism and commerce.

The Seven Sins in Garry’s Mod
Meet lust, sloth, wrath and envy of Cirque-Tacular and the seven deadly sins… an aerial dance showcase featuring aerial rope, hammoc, double hoop, cirq-u-lair, contemporary and hip hop dancers as well as musicians and fire performers. Cirque-Tacular can be booked as an entire show, or by act. Check out http://www.A2D2.com for more details.
This is one of the first videos I ever made and it was for a school assignment. It was for our Foundations class (religion class) and it was to make a brief and simple video demonstrating the sins of choice. This video is for fun and a joke, that is all, it is not serious at all =) Enjoy.
