About this Event
A really funny art talk for people who may not even care about art... because being a contemporary artist is funnier than being a comedian.
Sam Kissajukian has been a stand-up comedian for over a decade. His previous comedy show recounted the time he unknowingly documented his mental states over a 5 month Bipolar manic episode via the creation of 300 large paintings. In this new show (work in progress), Sam talks you through his more recent paintings, creations and ideas from the last two years.
