Terry Allen – Unititled 1985<\/p>\n

Yippy aye ay…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Having got the nitty gritty housekeeping worries out the way in entry #5 I now moving on to what inspires me and basically this guy does…I adding all info. here so my mentor can get a handle on this guy before we meet. All kinds of cross-overs and links going on and this quote sums it all up…On his friendship with talking heads man David Byrne….<\/p>\n


\nWe’re friends and we work very different from one another, pills<\/a> the way we write songs, the nature of our curiosities. But the real common denominator is that neither of us particularly give a hang about high art, fine art, pop culture or popular art. I think it’s about what inspires you, what moves you, what makes you laugh, whatever it is. The information is the same. I just think HOW we get it is very different and how it presents itself.<\/em><\/p>\n

YES INDEEDY<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have been collecting info. recordings and material on Terry in magazines since 1985!!!!<\/p>\n

So must be something in it..what he does is welds the different archetypes as mentioned below into a coherant whole..Texas songwriter tradition, Painter and printmaker and also the writer tradition (playwright)…only person i know so far who does that in a totally Fine Art context…many songwriters dabble in art and writing e.g. |Steve Earle, Rosanne Cash but\u00a0Allen comes at if from an almost architectural angle…especially with installation and publice art work (see links below)<\/p>\n

Terry Allen now lives and works in Santa Fe, New Mexico, but his roots are deep in Texas; Lubbock, Texas. He is as well known for his raw, rockabilly music–The Panhandle Mystery Band–as for his visual art. A recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Bessie Award, and an Isadora Duncan Award, Allen specializes in installation and performance art, and in cast-bronze sculpture, but he is equally proficient in printmaking and other media. His irreverence and ironic sense of humor are his trademarks, and a careful observer will also find tongue-in-cheek references to the history of modern art.<\/p>\n
