Julie Atlas Muz, Miss Exotic World and Miss Coney Island 2006 is one of the most acclaimed and prolific conceptual performers and choreographers in New York. Straddling the boundaries between performance art, dance and fine art with her dark, twisted, come-hither performances Muz has secured a place in the underworld of nightlife as well as the bastion of the art world. On any given night, you can see Julie Atlas Muz peeling off the outlandish costumes she dons, covered in fake blood in the basement of a gay bar or singing along with Mr. Pussy’s new track irreverent and unexpected sense of humor. Fresh from the Flying Circus Project 2007, a cultural exchange of 25 artists from different disciplines and continents touring Singapore and Vietnam, Muz proudly continues the ever political tradition of naked ladies in public spaces begun by Lady Godiva. In the US, Muz has presented her dance work nationwide with the Sex Workers Art show and in NYC at venues including the Guggenheim, Art at St. Anne’s Warehouse, chashama, LaMama, PS 122, and Dixon Place and has exhibited her fine art at the Armory Show and at New York’s premiere gallery Dietch Projects.
