The event celebrates the publication of his visual memoir and a multimedia exhibition of Art by Davey garments\, with live costume styling on models\, performance\, a series of imaginative self-portraits\, and collaborative works with Michael Blase Photography. \nThe Art by Davey visual memoir and Howl! exhibition showcase Mitchell’s mix of self-portrait and art wear performances\, inspired by Afro-futurism\, the solar system\, climate change\, world culture\, and gender bending. The dazzling\, dizzying\, decorative art wear collection showcased in the memoir was created between 2009 and 2016. \nLike a mad scientist\, the disparate everyday objects he uses as raw materials for his fantastical transformations into art\, costume\, and fashion come alive during the event\, culminating in an interpretative dance performance by Mitchell himself. \nFeatured will be art wear models Vangeline France in Future\, Charly Dominguez in Selfie Suit 1\, Will Atkins in Selfie Suit Infinity as well as Monroe\, an homage to Erté\, the 20th century French artist and designer who flourished in an array of fields including fashion\, jewelry\, graphic arts\, costume and set design. \nAlso on view will be photographs by Tomonori Iwata of Art by Davey featured in the Warp magazine (Japan) series One Room Museum; video projections including Photo Booth Me\, a collaborative project with filmmaker Jeremy Rocklin that explores the use of mirror and light effects with Photo Booth software to create tribal and sci-fi images; photographs showcasing costume styling produced for the Photo Booth Me project; and Nirvana\, a video of Mitchell’s interpretative dance and performance by the sea. \nAbout Davey Mitchell and Michael Blase\nArt by Davey began in 1984 after meeting Patricia Field at the Paradise Garage. He would later join the House of Field at 10 East 8th Street. \nThe artistic collaboration of Art by Davey and Michael Blase began in the late 90s after working together on Hotel Venus magazine for Field. Art by Davey’s photography and costumes have been featured in The New York Times\, The Daily Mail (UK)\, The Huffington Post\, The Daily News\, and ABC News. \nMichael Blase Photography has also been featured in The New York Times\, Time Out New York\, The Boston Globe\, The New York Observer\, and The Huffington Post.

SUMMARY:Ori Carino and Benjamin Armas Voided
DESCRIPTION:So you should view this fleeting world —\nA star at dawn\, a bubble in a stream\,\nA flash of lightning in a summer cloud\,\nA flickering lamp\, a phantom\, and a dream.\n                        —Diamond Cutter Sutra (500 BC) \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, April 29\, 6 PM. \nTapping into a new generation of artists who grew up in the East Village and who are steeped in its history and culture\, Howl! Happening is pleased to present Voided by Ori Carino and Benjamin Armas. Voided includes Carino’s protest paintings series as well as several collaborative sculptures by Armas and Carino. The exhibition runs through May 27\, 2017. \nCarino was born in 1982 in a loft and functioning art gallery on Houston Street in Manhattan and raised among several pivotal artists of the 80s Outsider Art movement. Collectively\, this exhibition intersects downtown artistic lineages from the 50s to the present and demonstrates the continuing social critique that has engaged generations of artists in the Lower East Side. \nCarino’s paintings feature portraits of a procession of activist heroes who left their mark on East Village history. Densely packed with movement and storytelling\, the series includes five large panels\, each 48 x 72 inches. Meticulously painted like Tibetan thangkas\, these archetypes of the forward thinking and progressive individuals who went against the grain are rendered amid canvases crowded with a hyperreal and fantastical array of pop culture symbols and objects from the natural world. Like protector spirits\, they signify the wild things\, the change\, and the altruism of the individuals and groups pushing us forward to a better understanding of who we are and how we intersect with the world today. \nBuilding sculptures with materials recovered from local tenement demolitions since 2006\, Armas and Carino both grew up in the neighborhood at a time when it was undergoing rapid gentrification. Treating these works as “performance\,” the artists intentionally change them by a process of ceremonial burning and dilapidation. “In this\, we relate to buildings as metaphors for the physical\, mental\, and social body; racing towards an inevitable end\, yet endowed with unlimited potential for catalyzing positive change\,” says Armas. \nAlso included in the show is a large painting with a motorized brush that drags paint in a circle essentially “voiding” its imagery\, a performance occurring daily that has Carino repeatedly building up a brick wall only to tear it down\, a special multiple made for the show by Armas and Carino\, panel discussions\, and a new work by composer Jessie Montgomery produced in conjunction with Carino specially for the Voided exhibition. \n“By losing what once was\, we gain the opportunity to discard preconceived notions\, affirm our agency\, and ‘represent’ the change we would like to manifest\,” says Carino.

As tradition dictates\, an intra-dimensional Lucha Libré grudge-match between the Birds\, the Bees and the Pollen Kount Kommandos will be held in the verdant valley of concrete outside HOWL HAPPENING.\nThis Steel-Cage-Sidewalk Showdown pits pro-histamine Philly “Sting Like A Bee” Abe vs. Tony “Petro-Chemo-Militarily-Modified” Stinkmetal. Blow-by-blow color commentary will be provided enthusiastically by Salley “I’m-a-sportscaster-in-a-blazer” May. \nFull Moon Show co-hosts Sally May and Tony Stinkmetal will be packing a picnic of violence\, gender-politics and FLOWERS!!!! \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nHowl! Happening houses the archives of Tom Murrin. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed the Full Moon Show in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. When he had a club date that fell on the full moon\, he’d wrangle his friends to perform as his guests—pushing the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, Lisa Kron and many others. If not\, he performed on the street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic. Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues that tradition\, with performances in the gallery and surprise pop up performances on the street. \nAbout The 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. \nUnder 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 CBGBs and Max’s Kansas City. As Alien Comic he performed in such venues as The Pyramid\, 8BC\, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut\, Performance Space 122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he’s created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and La Mama Experimental Theatre 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. Tom was the first performance artist to appear on stage at the original Dixon Place location at 37 East First Street in 1986. \nPhoto copyright Eric McNatt 2016

SUMMARY:Zhe Zhe  Season Two Premiere
DESCRIPTION:THE SURREAL SATIRICAL CULT WEB SERIES IS BACK\nThe best show you’ve never seen is back for a second season. Zhe Zhe is a hilarious satirical web series about the glamorous misadventures of three fame-famished posers in a post-reality New York. Created by stars Ruby McCollister \, Leah Hennessey \, Emily Allan and director E.J. O’Hara \, Zhe Zhe offers an unflinching look at the dystopia that has become our reality. Filled to the brim with music\, magick and mayhem\, Zhe Zhe goes where no other web series has dared to go before. \nThe first season of Zhe Zhe foresaw 2017: the rise of Donald Trump’s army of clones\, the gender revolution and its discontents\, the mainstreaming of wing-nut conspiracy culture and the commodification of political protest. \nSeason Two picks up right where Season One left off: Zhe Zhe’s lead singer Mona DeLiza (Ruby McCollister) mourns her maybe murdered comedy mogul boyfriend\, while prime suspect Chewie Swindleburne (Emily Allan)\, blond celebutante turned super-villain\, isolates in her penthouse lair in a cloud of cannabinated depression. Meanwhile\, Zhe Zhe’s other half\, androgyne narcissist Jean D’Arc (Leah Hennessey)\, longs for expedited immortality as a prog rock god. \nCinephiles and Snapchat addicts alike will delight in Zhe Zhe ’s DIY couture. Think Absolutely Fabulous meets The Cremaster Cycle . Like if Camille Paglia and Susan Sontag were on Celebrity Death Match . Like if Girls went to EGS. Ryan Trecartin does The Secret Garden . \n\n\n\n\n“On the heels of the absurdist success of Broad City\, Zhe Zhe offers something that the former cannot: a far more unabashed alternate reality that foretells the imminent doom of New York as a place for artists. As though they bottled some camp from The Mighty Boosh …the aesthetic of Zhe Zhe\, named for the two-girl band it stars\, is surrealist DIY at its finest – with plenty of wigs\, to boot” -Culled Culture \n\n\n\n\nEpisode 1\, “Back From The Dead”\, will premiere on May 15 on youtube. \nCLICK HERE FOR TRAILER  \nCLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION ON ZHE ZHE \nEpisode 1\, “Back From The Dead”\, will premiere on May 15 on youtube.

Riding on a wave\, each of us gravitating toward the unknown\, disregarding boundaries that were no longer needed. This place where movement blends with humor\, sound paints the landscape and visuals twist the mind into… surprise! \nOvercome by the political landscape\, here we are with our feelings. FUCKING FEELINGS (!) – yell and scream – catharsis – emotional outbursts – dance party – sweat – bodies close together – humor – collaborations with other artists/people who aren’t artists (civilians) – widen your dirty sphere – dance – music – visual art – all in one space – productive political dialogues – conversation – think tank – make fun – make serious – make art – surprise(!) \nHow can we surprise one another with the unexpected alliances that are made by cross-pollinating our communities and revolutionizing the intended uses of the venues and institutions we’re used to? It’s time to deframe or reframe the suddenly static definitions of what performance\, art\, and creative expression can be. Does it need the validation of the institution that it is assigned or can it be validated by the diverse communities that support and create it? surprise/!\, the “high” and the “low” are not so different from one another. \nLet’s overcome the divisiveness of current politics and culture and pay homage to our roots\, subverting boundaries through showing up and coming together. surprise. It’s a festival duh\, we’re doing this. \nAs we create the structure for this festival\, we cannot ignore the fact that we have no idea what will occur under this new administration in the next few months. In order to stay ready\, we are creating designated open space for meetings\, discussions or other needed formats to address what we can’t plan for – or even imagine. Throughout the course of surprise! surprise(!) surprise/! surprise\, HOWL! Happening acts as the hub for the Movement Research Festival Spring 2017 for this very purpose. We want to invite people from different communities to come together in a shared space both in formal and informal gatherings.

SUMMARY:No More Black Targets
DESCRIPTION:Unconscious bias can be deadly\, and contributes to one of the biggest violence issues in America. We have to do something about it. Howl! Happening is pleased to introduce No More Black Targets. \nNoMoreBlackTargets (NMBT) is a collective of artists—diverse in backgrounds\, ethnicities and nationalities—working in paint\, digital media\, patternmaking and also physical installations to bring new artwork to life. The collective paints on the actual live black silhouette paper targets used in shooting ranges\, an artistic approach that raises awareness while protesting the senseless and unlawful “black and Brown” shootings in past and recent years here in America. \nThis art project seeks to eliminate the use of the most popular target for shooters to learn to use their firearm: a menacing black silhouette. In shooting ranges\, in permitting and instruction environments\, anywhere someone is learning to use a firearm.\nTo raise awareness\, the targets will be replaced and painted over with artistic interpretations that turn the menacing black silhouettes into beautiful\, colorful and optimistic art. \nThe NMBT collective stands for “More paint. Less hate.”\nPrior to the February 2017 launching\, NMBT has gotten great development and awesome creative direction from Laurent Leccia and the team at FRED FARID. \nNMBT also partnered with the NYSEC – the New York Society of Ethical Culture. \nFeatured NoMoreBlackTargets Collective artist are: \nCYPHA\nSHAYNA KULIK\nREX CHOUK\nHEKTAD\nSACSIX\nPETER MOULTHROP\nJULIEN CALOT\nDIZMOLOGY\nBERNADETTE DELANY\nALICE MIZRACHI\nZIMER\nJENNA KRYPELL\nDENTON\nCHINON MARIA\nANDREA COOK\nUTA BRAUSER\nGIL GOREN\nAVISUAL BLISS\nJCBKNYC\nBILLIKID\nCONSUMERART\nYESONE\nBROLGA\nFKDL\nICONIC & 2CENTS\nSINES\nB.D.

SUMMARY:The Full Moon Show The Witch's Moon
DESCRIPTION:With co-hosts Tony Stinkmetal and Salley May\nA Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention \nAre you tired of every omnipotent cry-baby claiming to be the focus of a witch hunt? So are we! This Full Moon Show celebrates The Witch’s Moon. And his time\, the Witches will be doing the hunting. \nSalley May and Tony Stinkmetal take back the night—or more precisely\, the late afternoon—and come out swinging the Malleus Maleficarum (or medieval Witch’s Hammer) as the Full Moon Crew “un-burns” the entwined histories of witchcraft and counter-culture\, and mixes up a heady brew of historical irony\, hysterical insecurity\, and politically induced pyromania. \nMoon Goddess Luna Macaroona will be playing the role of Circe\, turning those who offend her into wild beasts. Instead of burning witches she lays waste to corrupt marketers of eternal youth\, sexism\, and the slavish followers of the social media who feed the beast. (No\, not that Beast. We mean the power structure.) \nThis Black Sabbath will include a visit from Alice Klugherz\, director of the Natural Selection performance coven to lift the current veil of mediocrity from our culture. In Haik Dreams Alice and her den of crones stir the cauldron of ageism with fierce\, funny vignettes about becoming—and being—an older woman. Unleashed from the stage and roaming freely on First Street anything might happen. Laid bare\, supercharged\, nothing to prove—these women will not go quietly! \nSo set your broomstick to stun  and your black cat to cruise-control! Suggested attire: pointy hats\, PVC chaps\, proto-crone-glam\, Lagerfeld anything\, thistle everything\, widow’s peaks with silver streaks\, spirit animals\, familiars\, Barbara Steele realness\, cobweb shawls\, Druid hoodies\, Joan of Arc haircuts. \n  \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nHowl! Happening houses the archives of Tom Murrin. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed the Full Moon Show in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. When he had a club date that fell on the full moon\, he’d wrangle his friends to perform as his guests—pushing the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, Lisa Kron and many others. If not\, he performed on the street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic. Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues that tradition\, with performances in the gallery and surprise pop up performances on the street. \nAbout The 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. \nUnder 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 CBGBs and Max’s Kansas City. As Alien Comic he performed in such venues as The Pyramid\, 8BC\, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut\, Performance Space 122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he’s created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and La Mama Experimental Theatre 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. Tom was the first performance artist to appear on stage at the original Dixon Place location at 37 East First Street in 1986.

SUMMARY:I ♥ John Giorno: Pierre Huyghe Sleeptalking
DESCRIPTION:Ugo Rondinone: I ♥ John Giorno\nOpening Reception: June 21\, 5pm \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present Pierre Huyghe’s Sleeptalking (d’après Sleep)\, \nin the heart of the neighborhood that spawned the revolutionary spirit and vanguard cultural figures who populate Giorno’s Sleeptalking narrative: Ginsberg\, Warhol\, Burroughs\, Cage\, et al. By celebrating the poet who is an inspirational and influential part of the Howl! community\, we also commemorate the tumultuous changes instigated in the 60s and 70s\, which live on and frame Howl’s mission to view contemporary culture through the lens of these groundbreaking artists. We salute John’s contributions and voice in this recontextualized tribute to Warhol’s Sleep and its dormant lead actor. \nPierre Huyghe’s 1998 work Sleeptalking (d’après Sleep) reconsiders the depiction of John Giorno in Andy Warhol’s Sleep\, 35 years after its premiere. Huyghe visited the poet in his loft at 222 Bowery\, intending to recreate Warhol’s film and have a conversation with Giorno about his life. The artist spent five days interviewing Giorno for over eight hours a day. On their final day together\, Huyghe filmed Giorno sleeping on the same bed featured in Warhol’s Sleep. \nIn the final work\, Huyghe overlaid his footage of Giorno with Warhol’s\, and through subtle shifts\, Giorno’s time-marked face imperceptibly changes and rejuvenates. This return to the original\, revealed in the film by a slow fade-out\, is accompanied by the poet’s voice. Giorno describes the context of the creation of the film Sleep and his memories of working with Warhol. As part of a series of works about the notion of interpretation\, Huyghe associates Warhol’s Sleep with the dreams and utopias of the 60s. Awoken from his long slumber\, the sleeper now speaks and becomes an actor in a different reality\, evoking the time he lived and its history. \nUgo Rondinone: I ♥ John Giorno is a sprawling\, multipart exhibition which presents the extraordinary life and work of the poet\, artist\, activist and muse John Giorno. Encompassing 13 venues around Manhattan—and featuring paintings\, films\, sound installations\, drawings\, archival presentations\, and a video environment—this retrospective includes Giorno’s own work\, as well as work inspired by him. \nI ♥ John Giorno is also a work of art by Giorno’s husband\, the Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone\, who has been creating sculptures\, paintings\, drawings\, and multimedia installations for almost three decades. With this project\, Rondinone presents a prismatic portrait\, assembled from the thoughtful arrangement of materials\, experiences\, and relationships that have defined Giorno’s astonishingly wide-ranging artistic career. Foremost\, the project is a joyous celebration of the poet’s ubiquitous presence in contemporary culture\, and his myriad contributions to it. \nRondinone’s homage to his life partner\, Ugo Rondinone: I ♥ John Giorno\, is the latest and by far most ambitious collaboration of Giorno’s career. The project unfolds in 18 chapters\, each a distinct exhibition sited in a non-profit or alternative space in Manhattan. Every chapter takes the form of an immersive installation\, designed by Rondinone and dedicated to a body of work\, an interest\, a relationship or a collaboration that has marked Giorno’s life. This includes his poetry\, painting\, sound work and performance; his recording projects and the founding of Giorno Poetry Systems; his AIDS activism; his Tibetan Buddhism; and his vast personal archive that comprises a history of radical art and poetry in New York during the second half of the 20th century. Several installations feature portraits of Giorno by different generations of filmmakers\, painters\, videographers and musicians. One consists of a single work: a multichannel video installation by Rondinone\, consisting of multiple images of Giorno performing one of his recent epic poems. \nUgo Rondinone: I ♥ John Giorno is a unique artistic and curatorial experiment. The cooperation between so many disparate nonprofit and alternative institutions in New York in the presentation of a single project is similarly unprecedented. The singularity of this monumental hybrid of artwork and exhibition is testament to the breadth\, variation\, and longevity of Giorno’s ongoing career\, as well as Rondinone’s artistic vision. Those lucky or stalwart enough to visit all 18 chapters of the exhibition will come away with an idea of both of these artists’ achievements. In its size and ambition\, I ♥ John Giorno can be seen as a citywide work of public art. At the same time\, it is an intimate expression of love and inspiration between two artist partners. It is an astonishing gesture of love on Giorno’s part to give the sum total of his life’s work to Rondinone as material for his own artwork. Perhaps\, in equal response\, Rondinone has conceived a work of art as big as Manhattan itself —Laura Hoptman \nABOUT UGO RONDINONE  \nUgo Rondinone (b. 1964\, Brunnen\, Switzerland) is a renowned mixed-media artist who lives and works in New York. Recent solo shows include: your age my age and the age of the rainbow\, The Garage Museum of Contemporary Art\, Moscow; let’s start this day again\, Contemporary Arts Center\, Cincinnati; every time the sun comes up\, Place Vendome\, Paris; girono d’oro + notti d’argento\, Mercati die Traiano\, Rome; becoming soil\, Carre d’Art\, Nîmes; seven magic mountains\, Art Production Fund and Nevada Museum of Art/Desert of Nevada; vocabulary of solitude\, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen\, Rotterdam; Ugo Rondinone: I ♥︎ John Giorno\, Palais de Tokyo\, Paris; golden days and silver nights\, Art Gallery of New South Wales\, Sydney; and artists and poets\, Secession\, Vienna. His work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art\, New York\, the Institute of Contemporary Art\, Boston\, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, the Walker Art Center\, Minneapolis\, and the Dallas Museum of Art\, among others. Upcoming shows include the world just makes me laugh at Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive\, Berkeley; and good evening beautiful blue at Bass Museum of Art\, Miami. \nABOUT PIERRE HUYGHE \nABOUT JOHN GIORNO \nJohn Giorno (b. 1936\, New York City\, USA) is an artistic innovator who has been defying conventional definitions of poet\, performer\, political activist\, Tibetan Buddhist\, and visual artist since he emerged upon the New York art scene during the late 1950s. In the 1960s\, he began producing multi-media\, multi-sensory events concurrent with Warhol’s Exploding Plastic Inevitable. He worked with Rauschenberg’s Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T) in 1966\, and with Bob Moog in 1967-68. His breakthroughs in this area include Dial-A-Poem\, which was first presented in 1968 at the Architectural Society of New York\, and was later included in the MoMA’s Information exhibition in 1970. His contributions are significant to many culturally defining moments: the Beat generation\, Pop Art\, Punk\, the Pictures Generation\, and the hip-hop era. His work is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art\, New York; Centre Georges Pompidou\, Paris; Musée National d´Art Moderne\, Paris; and Queensland Art Gallery/Gallery of Modern Art\, Brisbane; among others. \nUgo Rondinone: I ♥ John Giorno is made possible in part by public funds from the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia.

SUMMARY:Iris Rose The Joe Project
DESCRIPTION:Documentary Screening \nIris Rose was a familiar figure of the East Village performance scene in the 80s and early 90s\, primarily as a member of the group Watchface. She performed frequently at La MaMa\, PS122\, Darinka\, and the Pyramid Club\, among many other venues. By the middle of the decade\, however\, she had virtually disappeared as a presence within that community. Where had she gone? \nThe Joe Project tells the story of Iris’ trip “down the mommy hole.” After her son Joe was born in 1988\, she struggled—as many parents have before and since—to find the perfect balance between her work as an artist and devotion to her child. \nWhen Joe graduated from high school in 2006\, Iris began work on The Joe Project to mark that milestone\, and the transition to a new phase it represented for both of them. Together\, mother and son collected a profusion of media artifacts\, representing specific years of his childhood as she set to work\, examining their evolving relationship and her accommodations to motherhood. Written by Iris and edited by Joe\, The Joe Project documents changes in their lives\, but also in the East Village\, around the turn of the millennium—the very specific place and time where their story occurred.

SUMMARY:Christopher Felver Lawrence Ferlinghetti : A Rebirth of Wonder
DESCRIPTION:Documentary Screening and Shorts \nThe poet and writer Lawrence Ferlinghetti is an iconic presence in the world of arts and letters. For well over half a century\, he has helped shape the currents of poetry and literature through his forceful engagement with society. Armed with an ideological position that often found him at odds with the political dogma of his day\, Ferlinghetti became the best-selling poet of the modern era\, a literary mercenary\, and a rebel at the forefront of a cultural revolution. \nIn this definitive documentary\, director Christopher Felver crafts an incisive\, sharply-wrought portrait that reveals Ferlinghetti’s true role as catalyst for numerous literary careers\, and for the Beat movement itself. Felver’s one-on-one interviews with Ferlinghetti\, made over the course of a decade\, touch upon a rich mélange of characters and events that began to unfold in post-war America. These events include the publication of Allen Ginsberg’s Howl\, William S. Burroughs’ Naked Lunch\, and Jack Kerouac’s On the Road\, as well as the divisive events of the Vietnam War\, the sexual revolution\, and this country’s perilous march towards intellectual and political bankruptcy. Since its inception in 1953\, Ferlinghetti’s City Lights Bookstore quickly became an iconic literary institution\, embodying social change and literary freedom. Continuing to thrive for over five decades\, it is a cornerstone of America’s modern literary and cultural history. \nAlso being screened is History of the Airplane and Hum Bomb! by Allen GInsberg \nAbout Chris Felver

SUMMARY:Atomic Moon with Cornelius Loy
DESCRIPTION:The Full Moon Show: A Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention\nEvery Month on the Full Moon\nAt 4pm sharp\nThe monthly full moon crew\, Salley May and Tony Stinkmetal\, are flying us to the moon in this modern day sci-fi adventure\, set in a not-too-distant future on Moon Base Ladyhead\, where sightings of lunar moths are on the rise. \nMeanwhile\, back on Earth\, ecological disaster has been averted and everything has turned out just great: The earth has glaciers and ozone again\, and totally nice world leaders for the first time ever! Flying cars and plenty of Soylent Green keep the multitudes fat and happy. “Paradise has been rectified\,” as George Orwell would say. \nThis off-Earth mimoplastic (think mime) fumetti (think word bubbles in old comic books) is accompanied by a live theremin score (think soundtracks of 50s sci-fi movies like The Day the Earth Stood Still) performed by composer\, spiritualist\, and independent artist Cornelius Loy.  \nSo\, strap on your air tanks and fishbowl helmets\, we’re shooting for the moon! \n \nphoto: Copyright 2013 Jim R Moore/Vaudevisuals.com \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nHowl! Happening houses the archives of Tom Murrin. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed the Full Moon Show in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. When he had a club date that fell on the full moon\, he’d wrangle his friends to perform as his guests—pushing the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, Lisa Kron and many others. If not\, he performed on the street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic. Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues that tradition\, with performances in the gallery and surprise pop up performances on the street. \nAbout The 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. \nUnder 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 CBGBs and Max’s Kansas City. As Alien Comic he performed in such venues as The Pyramid\, 8BC\, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut\, Performance Space 122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he’s created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and La Mama Experimental Theatre 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. Tom was the first performance artist to appear on stage at the original Dixon Place location at 37 East First Street in 1986.

SUMMARY:Kazuo Ohno Dances An Offering to Heaven
DESCRIPTION:Butoh Film Series in Association With Vangeline Theater and New York Butoh Institute\nThe unique art of Butoh originated in post-World War II Japan as a reaction to the loss of identity caused by the westernization of Japanese culture—a realization that ancient Japanese performing traditions no longer spoke to a contemporary audience. One of the major developments in contemporary dance in the latter half of the 20th century\, Butoh combines dance\, theater\, improvisation\, and influences of Japanese traditional performing arts\, to create a unique art form that is both controversial and universal in its expression. \nThe legendary Kazuo Ohno is one of the most significant Butoh performers. He has toured throughout Europe\, North and South America\, Australia\, and Asia; and performed in Hong Kong\, Korea\, Singapore\, Taiwan\, Indonesia\, France\, Spain\, Denmark\, Poland\, Canada\, and the United States. Many students have come to study under him from all over the world. \nI would love to offer you even something as tiny as a grain of sand. If only I could succeed in doing that\, then I might fulfill my longing to share a part of my life with you. Isn’t it worth risking one’s life to offer something as microscopic as that tiny single grain of sand\, chosen from amidst countless millions? Take great care at all times. Even the most infinitesimal detail of the slightest gesture you make should be executed with loving care. It’s never too late to start. —Kazuo Ohno\, from Kazuo Ohno’s World: From Without & Within \nThe New York Butoh Institute is dedicated to sharing information and educating the public\, reaching out to the New York community with public butoh classes\, workshops and performances. The institute collaborates with international and national butoh artists. Their “Dream a Dream Project” has brought butoh lessons to correctional facilities in New York since 2007. This award-winning initiative continues to contribute to the rehabilitation of New York’s incarcerated population. \nwww.vangeline.com \nPhoto: Kazuo Ohno\, October 1986

SUMMARY:Christopher Felver Cecil Taylor: All the Notes
DESCRIPTION:Documentary Screening \nCecil Taylor is the grand master of free jazz piano. All the Notes captures\, in breezy fashion\, the unconventional stance of this media-shy modern musical genius\, who is regarded as one of the true giants of post-war music. Taylor is first seen musing over Santiago Calatrava’s fleecy architecture—a typical sign of the pianist’s famed eclectic interests\, which extend from soloing to combo and small orchestra work\, as well as spoken word performance. \nSeated at the beloved and battered piano in his Brooklyn brownstone\, the maestro holds court with frequent stentorian pronouncements on life\, art\, and music\, while demonstrating the technique and views which infuse his super-clustered playing. Students at Mills College\, where Taylor has a regular teaching gig\, devise an avant-garde “free composition” under his generous tutelage. Taylor plays at Yoshi’s in Oakland\, and Lincoln Center and the Iridium in New York\, with his large ensemble Orchestra Humane Big Band. \nSince the 50s\, Taylor has steadfastly represented jazz’s avant-garde\, a fact reinforced by notable commentators Elvin Jones\, Amiri Baraka\, Nathaniel Mackey\, and Al Young. The recording of the UCLA Royce Hall solo performance is an example of his astounding mastery of complex musical constructions. All the Notes is an intimate portrait of a consummate musician and sound thinker in triumphant maturity\, bringing out Taylor’s nobility\, devotion and belief in a truth that can only be found after a lifetime of invention. \nAbout Chris Felver

SUMMARY:3 Teens Kill 4 Listening Party
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the re-release of 3TK4’s No Motive album\, after 34 years! \nThe new pressing includes the underground hit “Hold Up\,” mixed by Ivan Ivan; three previously unreleased bonus tracks; and a collectable booklet and insert with never-before-seen art by David Wojnarowicz. A video by Pat Ivers and Emily Armstrong\, of Advanced Television\, completes the mix. Copies will be available for sale. The venerable Ted Reiderer will provide a vintage turntable to actually spirit us back to the pre-digital era. \n3 Teens Kill 4 was born in the summer of 1980 in the East Village of New York City. They took their name from a New York Post headline. The group consisted of Doug Bressler\, Brian Butterick\, Julie Hair\, Jesse Hultberg\, and David Wojnarowicz. There was a conscious decision not to have a front person or lead singer. David made cassette tapes with voices and sounds that he held up close to a microphone\, fast-forwarding and rewinding. Julie tried different rhythms on a Korg rhythm machine. Brian played a Casio drum machine\, and Jesse was on bass. Doug joined the group in time to make the debut album. He was a music lover who understood how to avoid covering over the band’s non-musicality. \nBrian says\, “These songs are very deliberately an experiment in postmodernism. Sound bytes were stolen from the airwaves and recorded onto bargain cassette tapes. We were stripping the structure of the popular song to the bone—a sort of sonic Duchamp. And throughout it all runs a childlike sense of play: the judicious use of toys\, the schoolyard chants…. All of this was happening during the dark and soul-numbing Age of Reagan\, with the AIDS crisis looming on the horizon.” \nTheir debut 7-song mini-album No Motive was recorded during the fall of 1982\, and self-released in 1983. Using rhythm boxes\, tapes of news reports\, odd percussion tools\, and snatches of song\, they chanted political narrative ideas about the modern mess at the time. The album is an amalgam of urban life: a twisted\, anti-rhetorical approach to social issues. Songs weave together to create an intelligent\, jarring sound. Razor-sharp guitar licks and hauntingly ominous bass lines create a tense\, oblique abstraction of pain and chaos. \nAll songs have been remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios. The jacket features a replica of the original front cover\, with a black and white photo by Seiji Kakizaki\, and updated back cover featuring a never-before-seen collage by David Wojnarowicz. Each copy includes a 12-page booklet with liner notes from each band member\, photos\, lyrics\, and press clippings. We’ve also printed a special 12×24” fold out diptych painting by David Wojnarowicz\, to whom this reissue is dedicated.

SUMMARY:Paul Tschinkel Nan Goldin: In My Life / Elizabeth Murray
DESCRIPTION:Film Screening\nHowl! presents portraits of two influential artists by Paul Tschinkel from his series ART/new york. \nNAN GOLDIN: IN MY LIFE :  ART/new york No. 47\nThe program features Nan Goldin’s celebrated 1996 mid-career photography retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Goldin’s exhibition filled an entire floor at the Whitney Museum with pictures that chronicle her involvement and fascination with the alternative\, “downtown” culture of New York City\, Boston\, Berlin\, Tokyo\, etc. Culled from a period that spans more than 25 years of taking pictures\, Goldin’s desire to make a visual diary of her friends and lovers\, as well as her own life\, makes for a moving\, highly charged\, visual experience. This exhibition was organized by curator Elizabeth Sussman and selected by Nan Goldin and her life long friend and colleague David Armstrong. Included are interviews with Nan Goldin and Marvin Heiferman\, a curator/publisher and a director of Lookout in New York City. \nELIZABETH MURRAY :  ART/new york No. 29\nElizabeth Murray’s distinctive and unusual paintings made her one of the foremost artists working in New York. She died in 2007. A pioneering painter\, Murray’s distinctively shaped canvases break with the art historical tradition of illusionistic space in two dimensions. Jutting out from the wall and sculptural in form\, her paintings and watercolors playfully rejuvenate old art genres—blurring the line between the painting as an object and the painting as a space for depicting objects in 3D. Breathing life into domestic subject matter\, her paintings often include images of cups\, drawers\, utensils\, chairs\, and tables. These familiar objects are matched with cartoonish figures and floating eyeballs—macabre images that are as nightmarish as they are goofy—which reveal her fascination with dream states and the feminist psychological underbelly of domestic life. The film\, made in 1989\, includes an interview with the artist\, her dealer Paula Cooper\, The New York Times art critic Roberta Smith\, and Robert Storr\, curator of Murray’s 2005 retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art. \nImmediately following the screening of ART/new york No. 29\, Jason Andrew\, curator and manager of the Estate of Elizabeth Murray will be in conversation with with the poet and author Greg Masters. There will also be a brief Q&A. \nGREG MASTERS along with Michael Scholnick and Gary Lenhart\, edited the poetry magazine Mag City\, and produced the cable TV show\, Public Access Poetry\, now available online thanks to the Poetry Project. His poems have appeared in a number of glorious obscure publications and he is the author of six books published by Crony Books\, including For the Artists: Critical Writing\, Volumes 1 and 2. \nPAUL TSCHINKEL is a painter with an MFA from the Yale School of Art and Architecture. In the early 70s he turned to video as an art form and thus became one of the first video artists in this new medium. In 1974\, he turned to the fledgling New York cable TV system\, producing Paul Tschinkel’s Inner-Tube\, a half hour weekly arts program—a gallery on television. In 1979\, Paul Tschinkel began taping young bands in New York clubs for the cable show\, which aired for three years and inspired and presaged MTV. Since then\, he has produced a video series on contemporary art called ART/new york (artnewyork.org/store). \n

SUMMARY:Paul Tschinkel Laurie Anderson: On Performance
DESCRIPTION:ART/new york No. 54 – Film Screening\nLaurie Anderson is best known as a performance artist who uses music\, technology\, handmade instruments\, words\, film\, actors and props to tell her tales. Although Anderson describes herself as a “story-teller\,” her performances are rich in visual imagery and have often been presented in art galleries and museums. ART/new york has been a fan of Anderson’s work for some time and on this program we see an exhibition of early pieces taped in 1984 at the Queens Museum and a 1998 installation at Artists Space in New York City. Included are two lengthy interviews with Anderson: one in her downtown loft and a second one in 1999 shortly before her performance of “Moby Dick” at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Also included is an interview with RoseLee Goldberg\, a performance art historian and author of a recent Abrams book on Anderson. \nPAUL TSCHINKEL is a painter with an MFA from the Yale School of Art and Architecture. In the early 70s he turned to video as an art form and thus became one of the first video artists in this new medium. In 1974\, he turned to the fledgling New York cable TV system\, producing Paul Tschinkel’s Inner-Tube\, a half hour weekly arts program—a gallery on television.
