Noontime Nuggetz: Nick Paparone’s Giant Rotating Pack Of Marlboro Reds Is Your New Symbol Of Abject Dread
When we saw the flyer for Nick Paparone‘s Rent Time at Copy Gallery (viewable after the jump and at philebrity.com/firstfriday), we had to ask: What is up with this? “It’s a performance in a lecture series type format that surveys the constant rituals brought forth everyday, every month, every year until our demise,” he said. “Including the non-stop purging of literal and metaphoric excrement caused by eating meals and doing what you have to do to pay rent. Here’s one of the characters in the performance: 4ft x 5ft rotating pack of Marlboros.” Indeed it is. Rent Time takes place tonight, from 6-11PM, at Copy, 319 N. 11th St., 3rd Floor.
