In her signature mode of performance as criticism, Christina Catherine Martinez will present a walkthrough of Tala Madani: Biscuits as Martinez's fictional alter-ego, an art publicist named Stephanie (no last name), whose PR agency operates under the ominous aegis of parent company Hexx Luxury Group FTW, LLC. Stephanie looks forward to taking time out of her busy LA art week to talk about paintings and stuff with you.
