For Love or Money Continues


The Kinsey Institute, Morrison Hall

For Love or Money is the Kinsey Institute’s contribution to Themester 2015 at Indiana University. This year the theme is @Work: The Nature of Labor on a Changing Planet.

For Love or Money will explore various forms of sex work, as well as professions associated with sex and gender expression, including prostitution, exotic dancing, nude and erotic modeling, peep shows, burlesque and drag performance, and adult film production.

More than 80 artworks, photographs, artifacts, film posters, books, magazines, and documents from the Institute’s research collections will be exhibited, including works by contemporary artists Herbert Ascherman, Dennis Chamberlin, Michael Grecco, Jason Kiley, M.C. Madrigal, Barbara Nitke, Michael Rosen, Dona Schwartz, Annie Sprinkle, Daniel D. Teoli Jr., Martin Weinberg, and Hope Wurmfeld.

These varied materials offer a broader view of these forms of work, beyond the stereotypes of sex-related work as demeaning or victimizing. These professions may be out of the mainstream, but they play a significant role in the American economy and culture.

The exhibit continues through February 12th 2016.

But Bedford and Bloomington musicians have stepped up to the plate.

To support the Acoustic Graveyard’s mission of establishing a home for new & alternative music in South Central Indiana, musician after musician has signed up to bring you the most varied Acoustic Graveyard ever!

And, we haz CLASSIC BELLY DANCING!

• Lacey Chaddock: Singer/songwriter. Her sound is “anxiety, a guitar, and swagger. A poetic, erratic, yet smooth wannabe jazzy, sorta bluesy, and blacks and purples…that swirl in and out of your thoughts with very literal blunt force. Then leaves you feeling wiser and glad that you’re not me.” Her influences are Evan Bliss, Thom Yorke, of Montreal, Erykah Badu, Dallas Green, Connor Oberst, and Bradley Nowell of Sublime, to name a few. Bloomington, IN.
Lacey Chaddock has performed at the Acoustic Graveyard twice before and has always been an audience fave!
