Terry Allen

Terry Allen is a visual artist and songwriter who occupies an utterly unique position straddling the disparate, and usually distant, worlds of conceptual art and country music. His work has been exhibited widely both nationally and internationally and includes numerous public sculptures. He has worked extensively in both theater and radio and has recorded 13 albums of original music. He lives in Santa Fe, NM and Austin, TX with his wife, actor and writer, Jo Harvey Allen.

One of the things I’m most sorry about is never getting to work with you. It almost happened at the CAMh, then you got your ass fired and I inherited Schimmel. Which turned out good even though he kept saying shit like “Do you know I’m the youngest Curator in America?” and I’d have to keep saying ‘Quit fucking acting like it.”
