	Cover: Ron Athey
		Athey also began to dabble in SandM and a bevy of substance abuse, which led to a heroin addiction.
		Athey attracted international attention in 1994, after a Minneapolis performance in which he sliced into the back of a fellow performance artist, placed strips of paper towel over the wounds and then hoisted the bloodied strips of paper towel, via pulley, over the heads of the audience.
		Ron Athey: It's funny, because I think there are two different things that have brought on different issues.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| Hallelujah! Ron Athey
		Born in 1961, Athey spent his early years with a family he describes as "poor people using fantastic religion to elevate their self." He says he was speaking in tongues by the age of 10, groomed for a career as a fundamentalist minister.
		Athey's art draws viscerally on his life, with the intention, he says, "to overcome a bad memory, to portray it in art." In one four-minute piece, he sticks 30 hypodermics into his arm to resurrect his days as a junkie.
		The fact that Athey is in fact an important modern artist and not merely an intriguing leader of a minor body-modification cult may be lost in the din of his supporters' — and the film's — too-approving voices.

	Where Art and Life Collide: Ron Athey - Franko B - Vaginal Davis April 28-May 5, 2006
		As an integral part of their performance work, Ron Athey, Franko B, and Vaginal Davis all subject themselves to physical, cultural, and psychological challenges as a means to transform the conditions of the present, thus their work is able to function simultaneously as exorcism and an opportunity for healing.
		Ron Athey's work weaves together the baroque visuals and ecstatic experiences of the fundamentalist Christian rituals of his youth with those found in the contemporary, then underground, cultures he found solace in as an adult.
		Athey lives through real physical extremes on stage as a means to acknowledge, own, and move beyond them, finding resolve in life's harsh truths and beauty in the honesty and ownership of pain.

	village voice > news > On Edge by C. Carr
		Athey estimates that he witnessed a faith healing at least once a week—the curing of cancers, the lengthening of legs.
		But Athey did learn that his was "the most important family in the world, chosen by God to kick off Armageddon." His aunt would give birth to the second coming of Christ and she would then marry Elvis—or so the Virgin Mary had revealed in a vision.
		Athey says that if you've ever truly believed and then lost your faith "you always have some sort of hole in you." He'd been so isolated as a kid, he didn't even know there was such a thing as atheism.

	PERFORMA05: Ron Athey
		Athey’s graphic, cathartic performance has been heavily influenced by his feelings toward the dysfunctionality and religious perversity of his strict Pentecostal upbringing.
		Athey began performing at underground galleries with Rozz Williams in 1981, in a collaboration known as Premature Ejaculation.
		In 1992, Athey began staging what was to become a performance ‘torture’ trilogy: Martyrs & Saints, 4 Scenes In A Harsh Life, and Deliverance.

	The Human Canvas
		Ron's willingness to be cut on a stage in public and bleed in front of other people really challenged us to think the body and its boundaries.

		Ron is particualrly well known for his extremely controversial public scarification performances pieces in the early nineties, and his willingness to be cut and bleed on stage in public when HIV/AIDS was very much in the public eye.

		Raised in a fundamentalist Pentecostal sect in California, Athey was preaching in snake-handling tent revivals at the age of 10; in his teen years he moved to Los Angeles, where the punk scene -- and, closely allied with it, the underground art scene -- was in full bloom.

		Ron Athey is an L.A. based performance artist known for weaving religion, sex and violence into his own personal theater of cruelty -- violent yes, but also incredibly moving.

		Ron Athey: A Story of Deliverance, which will be screening Wednesday and Thursday, May 19 and 20 at the Oak Street Cinema.
		The 90-minute film spends no more than five minutes on the incident, although it was, in Athey's words, "the end of my career in America." Instead, the film focuses on footage from Athey's more recent performances in Mexico and Croatia as well as commentary from Athey and his cast about the meaning of their work.
		Part passion play, part vaudeville, Athey's performances mix up religious iconography, S/M practices, and medical horrors to suggest that pain is the darkest kind of shared experience--and, at the same time, one we encounter alone.
