AMPer Olivier Goulet's "Brain Web," pictured above, is a graphic illustration of what AMP is doing: linking all kinds of artists all over the world, creating an international support network of fellow creatives. You can always connect with other artists through the AMP website - and now you can also connect through planning and community-building meetings in Los Angeles and Amsterdam.

Our next Los Angeles meeting will be on Thursday, March 13, 5-7 pm, in Downtown Los Angeles. Please email me at [email protected] by Tuesday night to confirm that you'll be there, and I'll send you the address of the AMPer who's volunteering her loft for our meeting. After that, join us on a walk through Gallery Row on the Downtown LA Art Walk, with over 20 participating galleries.

Meetings in Amsterdam begin with a Sunday brunch from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm on March 30 at the creative centre Struik at Rozengracht 160, hosted by AMPers Federico Hewson and Kim Chandler, pictured above. Amsterdam AMPers, come and bring interested friends to discuss the upcoming AMPsterdam event in June!

Nathalie Broizat
Born and raised in France, Performance Artist, Actress, Choreographer, Certified Movement Analyst - and Featured AMP Member - Nathalie Broizat arrived in New York City in 2000 as a Fulbright grantee. In 2003, following several years of performance work across the USA, Broizat moved to Los Angeles, where her career took a radical new direction when she began to study under legendary performance artist Rachel Rosenthal. Since then, Broizat has performed in Rosenthal's Fauve Conspiracy, as well as at MOCA, Redcat, Highways, Cabaret Voltaire, the Electric Lodge, the Fountain Theatre, and Espace DbD. She is currently a regular guest artist and educator at the University of Mississippi; a guest artist with the theater company Cracked Eggs, dedicated to mainstreaming the art of the mentally disabled in the international alternative art community; and a cast member of Outmigration, an ongoing multimedia performance in New York City.

Broizat's unique performance work, inspired by French cabaret and dance theater, questions the limitations and complexities of human existence while offering an ironic and sensitive view of everyday life. She deeply believes in the artist's crucial role for progress in peace and social justice. Nathalie Broizat is very proud of her membership in AMP - and AMP is very proud to present Broizat live in performance at the Body of Art opening reception on March 15. Take this rare opportunity to drop by and say hello in person to Nathalie Broizat.
