How I Learned To Draw is an autobiographical performance that incorporates stories about shock, revelation, and miracles which draw on cinematic influences. Structured in a physical space of sounds and video projections that represent acts of interference, Barry Markowitz will offer a physical recounting of the memories and acts of documentation, including autographs and giveaways, that motivated him to draw. In recounting his experiences, Markowitz acknowledges that telling a story is a distortion. "Any process of re-examining and event is a distortion of the event." - Barry Markowitz
Small structural elements in this performance have been brought forward and trans-mutated from Markowitz's 1981 performance for Public Spirit titled Think About It Susan.
Part of Liz Glynn’s project for Los Angeles Goes Live, Spirit Resurrection.
