Lonely Street : Tender Moments from the Mobile Homestead
Lonely Street is made up of artist Jim Shaw and Cary Loren, both former members of Destroy All Monsters.The works on this CDr were recorded live in the Mobile Homestead basement soon after its construction in 2012. The Mobile Homestead is a Mike Kelley sculpture on the grounds of MOCAD in Detroit. IThe CDr includes Halloween recordings made in Detroit in 2010 by Mike Kelley with Cameron Jamie and Cary Loren.
The CDr is released in an edition of 100 copies and packaged in a clear CD envelope along with a greeting card photograph signed by Loren. On the fron of the CDr is a photograph taken by Loren of a model in a sub-basement room of the Mobile Homestead.
The project was inspired by the “Vision in a Cornfield” exhibition held at MOCAD in 2012, and from a series of male pop crooner songs collected by Mike Kelley and presented as cover versions selected by Shaw and Loren. Lonely Street was produced for the Destroy All Monsters exhibition : “A Manifesto of Ignorance” held at the Horse Hospital in London, UK, in April, 2016. Copies are packaged with 100 assorted and original photos by Cary Loren, and a stamped Destroy All Monsters logo and creature on the card’s reverse. A very small amount are available.
