Visit Matthew Barney's Studio!

The Tate Gallery in England has teamed up with The Ultimate Travel Company to offer a trip to New York City that includes a visit to Matthew Barney's studio. The trip, called New York: The Performance of Style, runs for five days from November 7 – 12 and costs £2,345 ($3,788) per person (for a double-occupancy room in the Meatpacking district). In addition to Matthew Barney's studio, travelers will visit the studio of artist Sarah Sze, the Whitney Musueum, PS1, MoMA, and the Brooklyn Museum. The Tate does not promise that Matthew Barney will be present during the studio visit, but this rare behind-the-scenes look should please any Cremaster fanatic!

Matthew Barney Hosts Black Metal Pig Roast

Matthew Barney hosted a pig roast/black metal concert at his studio in Long Island City, New York last weekend. The free concerts, called Remains, included the bands Inquisition, Dagon, Krallice, Copremeis, and S.M.E.S. Barney, himself, was on hand to roast and carve the pig.

Thanks to Cremaster Fanatic Clemens for sending us a link to the photos. For more pics from the concert, check out Jae Saam Trio's Flickr page.

Barney in L'Uomo Vogue

As I promised months ago, here are scans of some of the photos of Matthew Barney from the May/June issue of L'Uomo Vogue. The slightly funky English translation of the article is posted here. I will post some more of the pictures shortly. For more photographs of Barney, please visit CremasterFanatic.com
