This L.A. performance and installation artist is known for an absurd sense humor that’s often directed at his own portly physique. (Kersels work has included, for instance, photos of him employing his considerable bulk to toss various friends through the air, and a sculpture that’s a mirror-ball version of Fat Man, the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki.) On view in this show are assemblages made out 33 rpm record album covers, and a rickety-looking stage on which he performs his version of Iron Butterfly’s 1968 prog-rock classic, “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida.”
