The Ice Cream Show

The Ice Cream Show at Galleri Loyal in Stockholm, Sweden. "...What Louis Armstrong called 'Chop Suey' and later Frank Zappa called 'Lumpy Gravy' is similar to what LOYAL presents here with 'The Ice Cream Show'. An improvisatory state of slinging the hash and shredding it. 'The Ice Cream Show' deals with artists that set up wet propositions. Art made this way looks as though it was subject to heavy weather conditions or under intense pull of gravity of the given slop. Many times the trophies from this place are the burp of a primordial soup still dressed with the after birth, raw to say the least."
