Jell-O Contest Retrospective

The slideshow below comprises adaptations of the more than 70 images and objects that made up the “Hello Jell-O, My Old Friend” retrospective at the Goodman Community Center in January 2019. A curator’s statement appeared as part of the display.Two films the curator couldn’t figure out how to display because she didn’t leave herself enough time:

  • The 2005 Hotdish Hoedown, a film Will Karlin-Kamin made before youtube was prevalent.
  • This Old Jell-O, a film by Nancy Jarvis and Jackson Eagan, with Todd Thompson, Susie Feest and Sam Feest.
  • 2012 City of Madison Engineering with logo in red jell-o
  • A mobile created from different colors of gelatin disks.
  • 2002 Jell-O Best Performance Art: A Short Historical Account of William Jell by Bobby Marshment-Howell and Walker Good.
