SUMMARY:Zeitgeist: The Art Scene of Teenage Basquiat
DESCRIPTION:An Exhibition and Special Events\nCurated by Sara Driver\, Carlo McCormick\, Mary-Ann Monforton and Howl! Happening \nOpening Sunday\, May 13\, 2018 / 6–8 PM / Free \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to announce Zeitgeist: The Art Scene of Teenage Basquiat\, a group exhibition focusing on the artists and scene around Jean-Michel Basquiat’s teen-aged\, pre-fame years. Curated by Howl! Happening\, Sara Driver\, Carlo McCormick\, and Mary-Ann Monforton\, Zeitgeist complements and amplifies the theatrical release of Sara Driver’s film BOOM FOR REAL The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat from Magnolia Pictures. The film premieres on May 11th at IFC\, New York. \nThe period covered in the exhibition and film tells the story of Jean-Michel’s early work\, peers\, and creative community in gritty\, pre-AIDS\, downtown New York—before the rise of the 80s art and real estate juggernaut. It was a time when decay\, drugs\, and dissolution fueled a boom in creativity where the definition of fame\, success\, and power was not based on money\, Facebook likes\, and self-promotion. For these creators\, to be a penniless published poet or a musician gigging at CBs was the height of success. In the rawness of the work\, the focus on street art and graffiti\, and the experimentation and cross-pollination of styles and disciplines\, the era has become a flash point for younger generations seeking to learn about and understand the authenticity\, closeness\, and community expressed in the work of the artists in Zeitgeist. \nThe exhibition—and a series of special events—illuminate Basquiat’s work and that of his friends and other artists\, writers\, filmmakers\, and musicians who emerged from that scene\, including: \nAlexis Adler\, Charlie Ahearn\, Ted Barron\, Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Philippe Bordaz\, Robert Carrithers\, Henry Chalfant\, Brett De Palma\, Vivienne Dick\, Jane Dickson\, Al Diaz\, Barbara Ess\, Coleen Fitzgibbon\, Fab 5 Freddy\, Futura\, Robert Goldman aka Bobby G\, Godlis\, Nan Goldin\, Richard\, Hambleton\, Michael Holman\, Becky Howland\, Tessa Hughes-Freeland\, Jim Jarmusch\, Justen\, Ladda\, Ann Messner\, Mary-Ann Monforton\, James Nares\, Glenn O’Brien\, Franc Palaia\, Lee Quiñones\, Walter Robinson\, Christy Rupp\, Luc Sante\, Kenny Scharf\, Paul Tschinkel\, Robin Winters\, and Bob Gruen. \nSpecial events will include: \n\nA panel discussion featuring Alexis Adler\, Felice Rosser\, Lee Quiñones\, Al Diaz\, and more\nA screening of Howard Brookner’s 1983 documentary Burroughs: The Movie from the Criterion Collection\nAn evening of films featuring an experimental film by Basquiat’s bandmate Michael Holman\, and Paul Tschinkel’s film about New York/New Wave\, curator Diego Cortez’s groundbreaking exhibition at PS1 in 1981\nA night performance and readings by Felice Rosser and Luc Sante.\nReadings\n\nFilm Series in collaboration with Anthology Film Archives. Anthology Film Archives will present a special\, 2-part film series to celebrate the Zeitgeist exhibition at Howl! and the release of Boom for Real. Part 1 (May 4-14) brings together a selection of films about or involving Basquiat\, as well as works that came out of the same era and milieu. For Part 2 (May 17-29)\, various participants in Boom for Real will guest-select films from the period that they feel have been overlooked\, or simply films that influenced their own work. Curators include Sara Driver\, Charlie Ahearn\, Coleen Fitzgibbon\, Fab 5 Freddy\, Tessa Hughes-Freeland\, Jim Jarmusch\, James Nares\, Lee Quinones\, Felice Rosser\, and Luc Sante.

SUMMARY:Al Diaz and Brett De Palma: A Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting the work of an early street art pioneer—whose adventures with Jean Michel Basquiat gave birth to graffiti’s iconic symbol SAMO©—Howl! Happening is pleased to present Al Diaz in conversation with downtown artist and luminary Brett De Palma\, both of whom are featured in Zeitgeist: The Art Scene of Teenage Basquiat. \nSAMO© initially became known because of its wit and sarcastic humor\, becoming a globally recognized graffito after Basquiat’s rise to fame. \nA prolific and influential first-generation New York City subway graffiti artist who later became a text-oriented street artist\, Al Diaz’s career spans five decades. He currently works with WET PAINT signs used throughout the New York City subway system. After cutting out individual letters to create clever\, surreal\, and sometimes poignant anagrams\, he hangs the finished works in subways stations. His WET PAINT work was featured in the 21st Precinct: Street Art & Graffiti Art Show (July 2014) and in a solo show at Outlaw Arts (March 2015). The upcoming book Street Messages by Nicholas Ganz will include the artist’s work. \nHe has been a featured speaker in a variety of panel discussions at The New School\, the Museum of the City of New York\, the NOLA Arts Festival in New Orleans\, and other venues. \n  \n\n  \nAbout Al Diaz \nAl Diaz is best known for his collaboration with Jean Michel Basquiat on SAMO©\, graffiti that appeared in lower Manhattan from 1977 to 1979.
