THE FREE CHURCH:
The Free Church of Public Fiction Inspired by a rich history of cults and new religions in
Los Angeles, as well as by the persistent trend towards spirituality in contemporary

art and music, The Free Church of Public Fiction opened its doors from February 23rd to

May 6th 2011. For three months, The Free Church hosted a series of instal-

lations, cult dinners, musical performances, rituals and ceremonies. The four walls of the space

were taken over by a set of artists, musicians and performers in turn. They each became

spiritual leaders of sorts and constructed a new church out of the same frame. In this city that

cultivates eccentricities and theatricality, religion is a customizable term. The "Free Church"

is a name inspired by Thomas Jefferson's writing on the separation of state and faith;

the foundation of this country. In this case, our church is free of government but also of religion

itself; it is now a term re-opened to interpretation.

 

To all you scribes and artists and practitioners of magic

through whom these spirits have been manifested...

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted

-- Billy Burroughs
