SUMMARY:Play What You Like: Fluxus\, Music\, and More curated by Jade Dellinger
DESCRIPTION:Play What You Like: Fluxus\, Music & More\, curated by Jade Dellinger \nJohn Cage\, Giuseppe Chiari\, Philip Corner\, Dick Higgins\, Joe Jones\, Milan Knizak\, Charlotte Moorman\, Yoko Ono\, Nam June Paik\, Ben Patterson\, Laurie Anderson\, The Art Guys\, David Byrne\, Keith Edmier\, Christina Kubisch\, Christian Marclay\, Dave Muller\, Al Ruppersberg\, Stephen Vitiello\, and others… \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present Play What You Like: Fluxus\, Music & More curated by Jade Dellinger\, opening Saturday\, June 18th from 6-8 PM and running through July 31st. Drawing its title from an early work by the Italian Fluxus artist/composer Giuseppe Chiari\, Play What You Like: Fluxus Music & More highlights both historical works and the works of those influenced by those historical precedents. \nMost heavily inspired by the ideas of John Cage\, Fluxus art often relied on chance to shape the outcome and actively involved the viewer. Fluxus compositions or scores for performances and events involved simple actions\, ideas\, and objects from everyday life. Incorporating concrete poetry\, visual art and writing\, Fluxus performances were the embodiment of Dick Higgins’ idea of “intermedia”—a dialogue between two or more media to create a third\, entirely new art form. \nYet\, as many of the Fluxus artists had formal training in music\, musical composition and performance (frequently involving the alteration\, misuse or abuse of traditional instruments) became central to their activity. Beginning with a series of festivals featuring concerts of experimental music and other avant-garde performance\, Fluxus artists reacted against the commodification of art\, its commercialization in the gallery system\, and its static presentation in museums. A primary goal of most Fluxus artists was to destroy any boundary between art and life. Founder George Maciunas stated that Fluxus was “anti-art\,” to underscore the revolutionary mode of thinking about the practice and process of art while using humor to mock the elitist world of “high art” and to bring art to the widest possible audience. \nIn addition to the artists listed above\, of particular note will be the interactive installation JOHN CAGE 33 1/3 performed by Howl! gallery-goers. Conceived in 1969 as an “audience participation” work\, John Cage’s original “score” simply stipulated that the gallery be filled with about a dozen record players and two- to three-hundred vinyl records. Visitors to the gallery are encouraged to act as DJs and create a musical mix by playing records freely and thus performing the work. \nAccording to guest curator Jade Dellinger\, “when the work was first installed at the University of California in Davis\, a local record store graciously volunteered the hundreds of necessary records. However\, as Cage never discussed condition or specified titles\, the store promptly sent over the most common and undesirable\, damaged and utterly unsalable records in their inventory.” Dellinger was inspired by a line from a letter he received in the 80s from Cage in which the composer noted that “I am not interested in the names of movements but rather in seeing and making things not seen before.” \nA prominent group of visual artists and performers (even a few Rock & Roll Hall of Famers) have submitted top ten picks or album playlists to fill record bins. The participating visual and performing artists include: \nYoko Ono\, Iggy Pop\, Graham Nash\, David Byrne\, Lee Ranaldo\, Richie Ramone\, Jad Fair\, Alex James\, Meredith Monk\, Terry Allen\, Irwin Chusid\, Arto Lindsay\, Blixa Bargeld\, Mike Kelley\, S.A. Martinez\, David Harrington\, Emil Schult\, Pauline Oliveros\, The Residents\, Vito Acconci\, The Art Guys\, Martin Atkins\, John Baldessari\, Matthew Barney\, Christian Marclay\, Joan La Barbara\, James Rosenquist\, Ed Ruscha\, William Wegman. \n

SUMMARY:Mayhem and Howl! Happening Present: Manatee in the Moon: An Homage to Luna Macaroona
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday July 19\, 2016 / 2 PM / Free\nFULL MOON SHOW\nA Tom Murrin Alien Comic Invention \nThe Full Moon Show\, Howl! Happening’s monthly series of performances\, rituals\, and blessings\, features original members of the Full-Moon Crew and other leading contemporary performers. For July\, performer/curator Salley May and her sister\, artist Nancy May Perry\, create Mayhem in the gallery and pay tribute to the moon goddess Luna Macaroona and to Tom Murrin—an artist whose legacy continues today with the young performance artists he encouraged and inspired. \nMayhem is Salley May and Nancy May Perry\, who combine shared and separate histories to chart lines between danger/safety\, prey/predator\, and inside/outside\, summoning unconventional forces for protection and power\, and identifying survival as a radical act. Mayhem was formed when these two sisters came together for a performance at the New Museum in 2013. \nSalley May is Howl! Happening’s Tom Murrin Full Moon series curator\, a NYC-based performance artist since 1986. She has curated PS122’s Avant-Garde-Arama series since 1988\, and has run theater/dance workshops with mentally ill populations through HAI (Hospital Audiences\, Inc.) since 1990. She was a longtime member of Jennifer Miller’s Circus Amok! and is devoted to the life\, work and spirit of Tom Murrin aka the Alien Comic. \nVisual artist Nancy May Perry explores images of transparency and houses concepts of safety and danger in the mundane of day-to-day experience. She did undergraduate work at the University of California\, Berkeley and received an MFA from Hunter College. Perry has been included in shows at the Brooklyn Art Museum and other venues in New York City. \n  \nThe Tom Murrin Archive \nHowl! Happening is the repository of the Tom Murrin Archive comprising masks\, costumes\, scripts\, correspondence\, photographs\, and tapes of performances going back to the early 70s. Murrin (February 8\, 1939–March 12\, 2012) also known as The Alien Comic and Jack Bump\, was a performance pioneer whose life and work inspired both artists and audiences for over 40 years. He was a member of the first generation of La MaMa playwrights. Tom wrote four plays performed through La MaMa and produced by John Vacarro’s Play-House of the Ridiculous\, including the offbeat hit Cock-Strong\, which toured with Ellen Stewart’s La MaMa troupe to Paris\, Amsterdam and Brussels. \nWith the guidance of rock manager Jane Friedman\, Tom began to perform under the name Alien Comic\, opening for acclaimed punk bands in rock clubs such as CBGB\, Max’s Kansas City and Irving Plaza. He performed in New York City clubs and theaters as The Alien Comic\, appearing in such venues as The Pyramid\, 8BC\, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut\, PS122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at PS122\, and later at the La Mama Experimental Theater Club and Dixon Place\, called The Full Moon Show. His plays Sport-Fuckers and Butt-Crack Bingo were produced at Theater for the New City and La MaMa and directed by David Levine. \nPhoto: Jim R. Moore\, 2015
