The evening will feature a talk/performance by Montano, which will include a screening of Mark Shaw’s video, Linda Mary Montano Celebrates Mother Teresa’s 100th Birthday at the Empire State Building, documenting Montano’s 2010 public performance as Mother Teresa with four "guardians" (Andrea Dominquez, Miss Toni Silver, Zhen Heinmann and Leah Aron). A 12-hour lock-in will follow, for which Montano has selected seven participants from a pool of applicants. The group will stay the night together, with Montano leading participants in a workshop, as well as eating and resting.
Linda Mary Montano is a pioneer in performance art. Since the 1960’s, she has explored how artistic ritual, often staged as individual interactions or collaborative workshops, can be used to enhance a person's daily life, to create the opportunity for attentional spiritual energy states, to encourage inner silence and to alter the cessation of art/life boundaries. Montano's work can be viewed at www.lindamontano.com, as well on her blog and on YouTube.
