The JWAM Reenactments & The Real McCoys
Outsiders and art buffs alike, most all of us enjoy references, like inside jokes. Aren't familiar with some of the works of art recreated in JWAM? Not to worry.
Here's a side-by-side look at our modest proliferations and the moving, arresting, shocking, and remarkable originals.

The Calling of Saint Matthew, 1599-1600 Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio JWAM Reenactors: Christopher Schrat, Timothy Coen, Russ Pedersen, John Lampe, Coleman Crenshaw, Tyler Ernst, Adam Dreeszen |

JWAM moves into Post-Production!
JWAM is now in post, with a Kickstarter Project scheduled to launch before the end of next week.
JWAM is a short documentary film including interviews with notable historians, critics and curators as well as Kansas City's own local artists (and beloved KCAI professors). JWAM is a film that discusses and brings up questions about the odd existence of religion in contemporary art.
By collaborating with many of Kansas City's awesome performers, dancers, and models JWAM includes re-creations of several works of art known for their sensationalized religious content.
Premiering at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art May 6th, 2012.
