Charlemagne Palestine Review on KCRW’s “Art Talk” by Hunter Drohojowska-Philp
Little can prepare you for the jazzily titled CCORNUUOORPHANOSSCCOPIAEE·AANORPHANSSHHORNOFFPLENTYYY, his current show at 356 S. Mission where a former warehouse is stuffed full of stuffed animals. They are arranged on wall panels to divide the huge gallery, lie along the edges of the floor and are suspended from rafters. Their little button eyes stare, their stitched mouths smile, their rounded, happy bodies invite cuddling.

The artist explains that each of those genres create their own world, and have their own world – which is sort of unique. The artist converts the space into something between a sacred Luna Park or sacred toy temple.

“I create a unique environment and a unique atmosphere that then you can be transported to another place, differently than you would for jazz or classical music or rock’n’roll,” Palestine explains. “Each of those genres create their own world, and have their own world. Mine that I’ve created – which is sort of unique – dates now a long time I’ve been doing it. And it certainly soothes me; I couldn’t imagine doing it without it. But I now have a big following, and it soothes them too. So it soothes us all.”

Entrevista entre Charlemagne Palestine y Chloe Ginnegar
Entrevista entre Charlemagne Palestine y Chloe Ginnegar Enero de 2018 Realizada en ocasión de Charlemagne Palestine: CCORNUUOORPHANOSSCCOPIAEE AANORPHANSSHHORNOFFPLENTYYY en 356 S. Mission Road
Chloe Ginnegar: Tus exposiciones más recientes se han presentado en museos, pero me gustaría empezar con tu obra anterior y tu participación en la Idea Warehouse de Nueva York en los años 70, un espacio dirigido por artistas similar a 356.
Charlemagne Palestine: Era un espacio muy grande, pero en esa época podíamos usar la palabra, que en aquel entonces yo era –la palabra que odio—más mínimo.

Interview with Charlemagne Palestine by Chloe Ginnegar January 2018 Conducted on the Occasion of Charlemagne Palestine: CCORNUUOORPHANOSSCCOPIAEE AANORPHANSSHHORNOFFPLENTYYY at 356 S. Mission Road/Ooga Twooga
Chloe Ginnegar: Your more recent exhibitions have been held in museum spaces, but I’d like to start with your earlier work and participation at the Idea Warehouse, an artist run space in the seventies in New York City, which is somewhat similar to 356.
Charlemagne Palestine: It was a very big space but in those days we could say the word, that I was – the word that I hate – that I was more minimal then.
CG: The work then was not as maximal as it is here.
CP: It was in 1975. That was more than 40 years ago. In those days I must say, even though I had my animals and things - I had a couple animals – everything was very sparse. Everything was in black and white more or less – also the equipment, the monitors were in black and white. It was a more “black and white” time. That’s why all my drawings of that time were in black---which I didn’t mind. It’s also to remember that using that word minimal, which we didn’t invent, was used for sculpture. Tony Smith, the father of Kiki Smith, he was one of the founders of a kind-of approach to form that eventually got called minimal. Then there was a composer, a writer for the Village Voice called Tom Johnson and he used that word for sound art and performance. So the word started to take off and forty years ago that was ok. The only thing that I have, the reason why I am so “anti”, is that we live in such an abundant world now. Internet and things, I just did an interview for Bourges in France right here in Los Angeles.
