I REMEMBER BOB IN SCENES. In the 1970s I went to a lot of very long Bob Wilson performances, among them the legendary Deafman Glance (1970) and A Letter for Queen Victoria (1974). They lasted for hours; some were all night. I often watched from the top of the nosebleed balcony-sometimes wrapp­ed in a sleeping bag, the images onstage mixing with my dreams. Even now I'm not sure whether I dreamed something or saw it in a Bob Wilson performance.
Stephen Fishwick paints the way some people breathewith instinct, rhythm, and an unspoken urgency to translate feeling into form. His work is born from movement rather than deliberation, a synthesis of music, color, and gesture that feels more like performance than process. What he captures is not a single moment, but the sensation of many moments collidingthe way sound becomes light, and emotion becomes visible.

"There's a certain kind of energy that could be produced by a performative idea of communication, and that's what I'm interested in," said the Academy Award-winning director of "12 Years a Slave." "I'm not the kind of person who stands for an hour reading from a piece of paper. I think the audience needs more, and I feel I need to give more.

Her choice? San Francisco designer Ken Fulk, whose style she described as louche with a little too much velvet. That style is on display at Saint Joseph's Arts Society, which Fulk founded in 2018, turning the former Romanesque church into a glamorous, massive art space south of Market. Looking around on September 12th, the opening night of La Pocha Nostra's The Other Art World, it seems that for Fulk, there is no such thing as too much velvet.

Opening September 27 at Night Gallery in Los Angeles and curated by Adam Abdalla, the show marks a striking debut that blurs the lines between performance art, wrestling culture, and personal identity. Through eight new works, Moriarty shifts focus away from the spectacle of the ring and toward the quieter, more vulnerable realities of the luchadores who inhabit it.
