SUMMARY:Arturo Vega Insults
DESCRIPTION:A series of paintings created by the late Arturo Vega imprinted with irrelevant and honest text fragments in a cocktail of insults and mystic thoughts. Painted in primary colors as a way to ponder the crudeness of the society he was a part of\, they poke fun at the uncertainty and ambivalence of the artist in the face of the cultural climate of his adopted city. \n

SUMMARY:Jeffrey Wengrofsky  Secrets of the Heart – Films Telling the Truth that Hurts
DESCRIPTION:A Film Festival \nHowl! Happening hosts the fourth Secrets of the Heart Film Festival that is dedicated to getting past the propaganda about that most sacred sentiment—love. Does love thrive amid illusions of truth and beauty? Is it natural or is it learned? Is love pure or merely a reflection of broader patterns of power and knowledge? What is the relationship between love and allegedly lesser impulses like lust and greed? How do the varieties of love—romantic\, familial\, comradely—get along with one other? Ten short films answer these questions and more. \nSaturday\, March 19th 7pm – 9pm / Free \nread more about Jeffrey Wengrofsky

SUMMARY:Tony Stinkmetal Full Moon Show
DESCRIPTION:A Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention\nWednesday\, March 23 / 2 PM / Free\n  \nIn keeping with the irrepressible spirit of Tom Murrin\, Howl! Happening is pleased to present Tony Stinkmetal in this month’s segment of the Luna Macaroona master’s  Full Moon Show series. Artist/filmmaker Tony Stinkmetal was born on Earth a long\, long time ago. During much of the 20th century Tony wrote\, shot and starred in many short\, violent films based largely in the aggressive actions between flowers and satellites. Since the dawn of the new millennium\, Stinkmetal has devoted himself to writing and performing. In 2015 he produced and directed a staged reading of his script Say Uncle! at Dixon Place. When asked about the performance\, conservative columnist/blogger Andrew Sullivan said\, That is the most offensive shit I have ever seen! Stop following us! My husband is too fat to run and you’re stepping on our French Bulldog—TAXI—!!! \nThis Full Moon Show will take place under the giant sky outside\, on the street\, in front of Howl! Happening. Stinkmetal celebrates the first Full Moon of Spring—The Worm Moon—through science\, vaudeville\, and his own personal experiences. Produced in association with curator/performer Salley May. \n  \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nPerformance is anything done with purpose and style—Tom Murrin \nHowl! Happening houses the archive of Tom Murrin. Tom\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon—without fail\, paid booking or not\, in all seasons and whatever the weather—he performed his Luna Macaroona Full Moon Show. 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. When he didn’t have a club date\, he performed on street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic.

SUMMARY:Legs McNeil Artie and Me
DESCRIPTION:Closing Event for Arturo Vega Insults Exhibition \nThursday\, March 31 / 7 PM / Free\nIf it wasn’t for Artie\, Joey Ramone and I would’ve starved to death. —Legs McNeil \nJoin us for a very special closing event in honor of Arturo Vega’s Insults painting exhibition. Legs McNeil and Arturo Vega were close friends for more than 40 years. Legs first became friendly with Joey Ramone\, who was living at Artie’s loft. Through Joey\, he and Arturo became friends. Legs began staying over at Artie’s loft in 1975 because he was too drunk to make it back to the “Punk Dump\,” the Punk magazine offices on Tenth Avenue next to the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel. \nDrawing from interviews and adventures they had together\, Legs weaves together a portrait of the artist and his early life in New York City. The interviews grew out of a Spin magazine article he wrote\, The Last Days of Times Square\, which was turned into a feature documentary for the BBC by director Mary Harron (I Shot Andy Warhol and American Psycho) and McNeil. Since Arturo had once worked at the Orange Julius stand in Times Square\, Arturo’s interviews are a key feature of the documentary. \nLegs McNeil is the co-author with Gillian McCain of Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk\, the all-time bestselling book on punk. The 20th Anniversary Edition of Please Kill Me will be released in May 2016 with new chapters\, photos and an afterword by the authors. Also in May\, Please Kill Me: Voices From the Archives\, a two-hour radio special\, will premiere on National Public Radio stations. Taken from the original interviews for the book\, this audio documentary uses the voices of Lou Reed\, Iggy Pop\, Patti Smith\, Joey Ramone and many more to tell the story of this underground music revolution. \n  \nPhoto: Tom Hearn

SUMMARY:Marguerite Van Cook\, James Romberger\, and ClockWork Cros The Nuclear Family
DESCRIPTION:At times we choose to collaborate\, at other times we work alone\, but we always work\, and we are always a family. \nNo strangers to controversy\, in the exhibition at Howl! Happening this multi-generational group takes on personal\, local\, real world and art world politics through a visual lexicon of familial codes. The exhibition features James Romberger’s drawings\, Van Cook’s paintings and installations\, and ClockWork Cros’ mixed media installations. \nThe show presents individual and collaborative works from a family of New York-based artists and illuminates a complex interaction in which elements from the artists’ private lives flow between their works. The discourse is domestic; it resides within their common home and also informs issues from the greater social and national/international spheres. The exhibition explores the meaning of history\, memory and personal experiences that move between a larger past and a more intimate present. What is revealed through this celebration of individual and collective expression is a subtle flow of familial dialogues\, unspoken conversations and collective taste. Elements of each artist’s practice can be found in the work of the others. \nWhile each artist’s works are unique\, there are happy agreements\, affordances and mutual pleasures. All the same\, their lives are not free from artistic anxieties. In part\, this show explores what it means to be “happy” and how we exist within and without society. It looks at concepts of pleasure\, luxury and the construction of comfort. The constitution after all guarantees the pursuit of happiness\, but perhaps not for artists who choose to comment on society. \nJames Romberger’s masterfully drawn\, closely-observed pastels of cityscapes and remembered travels tell the extraordinary story of his interest in place and people. While Romberger is known for his critical gaze\, alternately\, in certain recent works he discovers sublimity in the shadows. His stunning use of light speaks to a romantic impulse that aggravates the realism of his depictions. In his still life drawings\, one sees the strong traces of his familial relationships and a clever commentary on the social influences that inform home life. \nMarguerite Van Cook’s new work connects memory\, love and anxiety as it revisits her interest in the tensions and conflicts between men and women and the complicated roles of mother and artist. She utilizes elements from home life: fabrics\, wallpapers and the objects that embody the domestic\, to test the boundaries of motherhood and personhood\, particularly as the maternal figure has been understood historically—and forgotten—as a revolutionary force. She explores the philosophies of comfort and discomfort\, of pleasure and anxiety through her paintings\, prints and multi-media installations. \nClockWork Cros is a Surrealist clockmaker whose work with the dimensions of time and personality raises complex questions about celebrity\, achievement and the face as modern totem. Elegant\, modern and contemporary\, his clocks challenge ideas about disposability\, longevity and reputation. The clocks explore the consumption of celebrity\, even as the artist also includes inspirational figures such as scientist and artists—a move that reframes the question of human worth. His work for this exhibition positions itself in the space of discontent and revolution and is both historical and current. Post-post-modern\, it sails across media platforms and technology\, but also looks back to a time of the handmade. \n

SUMMARY:Henry Miller Memorial Library Ping-Pong Free Press
DESCRIPTION:Reading and Release Party\nFriday\, April 15 / 7 PM / Free\nMarilyn Monroe Didn’t Marry Henry Miller: Howl! Happening\, Ping-Pong Free Press\, and the Henry Miller Memorial Library invite you to an evening of reading\, ranting and raving to celebrate the release of their magazine and launch of their press. \nReaders include: Jean-Paul Pecqueur\, Susan Lewis\, Alexander Cigale\, Sheila Maldonado\, Cathy McArthur\, Kostas Anagnopoulos\, Stephen Boyer\, Christen Clifford\, Amanda Davidson\, Dia Felix\, Matthew Sharp\, Robert Marshall\, Laurie Stone\, Pamela Sneed\, J. Hope Stein\, Christine Hamm\, Kate Lutzner\, Sarah Sarai\, Maria Garcia Teutsch and Magnus Toren. Special thanks go to Joanna Fuhrman and Shelley Marlow for helping to curate readers. \nThe Henry Miller Memorial Library in Big Sur\, California champions the literary and artistic legacy of Henry Miller. This cannot mean only the writings of Miller himself. We may not have even known about Miller had it not been for Anaïs Nin. Miller existed at the peripheries of American literature\, but his sources\, and his influence\, extend far beyond this country\, to the international literary avant-garde. \nPing-Pong Free Press follows in the footsteps of its literary parent Ping-Pong magazine and therefore sees itself as a current and vital part of that same impulse. It represents a living connection to the centers and peripheries of contemporary literary culture\, both in the United States and beyond. As such\, we are not looking for writing that is pretty. \nMiller himself was not a pretty writer. But he was vital. That is why even when Miller was hardly read in the U.S.\, Kenneth Rexroth describes himself meeting “…miners in the Pyrenees\, camel drivers in Tlemcen\, gondoliers in Venice” who all asked\, “Do you know M’sieu Millaire?” Ping-Pong Free Press will not be censored\, will not bow to whimsy\, will speak loudly in the face of injustice\, and will support those artists whose voices are sometimes silenced. \nAmerican writers who exist just under the radar of the mainstream literary world—as Miller and Ginsberg did for so much of their careers—will be represented by Ping-Pong Free Press. \nAnd just as Miller was and is as much an international literary figure as he was/is an American one\, so too does Ping-Pong Free Press seek to reach beyond our shores in order to bring unknown\, or lesser known\, writers from around the world into more prominence in English\, doing so with its first title: A Small Suitcase of Russian Poetry\, trans. by Ilya Kaminsky and Katie Farris. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Full Moon Show Carmelita Tropicana Performance and Screening of Uzi Parnes short film\, World Peace
DESCRIPTION:A Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention \n\nFriday\, April 22\, 2016 / 2 PM / Free\nSpend your lunch break with the lunatic fringe! Outside\, on the sidewalk\, in front of Howl! Happening\, experience the nutty wonderment that was the essence of Tom Murrin\, our beloved Alien Comic. The Inimitable Camelita Tropicana performs. Tropicana (a.k.a. Alina Troyano) is a performance artist\, playwright\, and actor. Troyano burst on New York’s downtown performing arts scene in the eighties with her alter ego\, the spitfire Carmelita Tropicana and her counterpart\, the irresistible archetypal Latin macho Pingalito Betancourt\, followed by performances as Hernando Cortez’s horse and la Cucaracha Martina from her childhood fairy tales in Cuba. In Tropicana’s work humor and fantasy become subversive tools to rewrite history. About Carmelina Tropicana. \nFollowing the performance\, we’ll be screening Uzi Parnes short film\, World Peace\, (1987) starring Tom as Claude Balls a philandering East Village performer who gets his just rewards when he hooks up with three beautiful women after his show. \nUzi Parnes is a New York based filmmaker\, photographer and actor. His photographs\, video and live-film performances have been shown worldwide—most recently as part of Recycling Atlantis at 80WSE Gallery\, NY (2014) and in a career survey at The Arsenal Institute for Film and Video Art\, Berlin (2012).  His installation “Basra On First Avenue” at Broadway Windows\, NY (10/14-2/15) was named one of the best artworks of 2014 by noted critic David Ebony.  More about Parnes \nAnd there is more: For the astrologically challenged\, next month’s full scale\, full moon performance madness is coming Sunday\, May 22nd at 4 PM and features the presentation of Dixon Place’s 2016 Tom Murrin Performance Award\, also known as The Tommy. \n  \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nPerformance is anything done with purpose and style—Tom Murrin \nHowl! Happening houses the archive of Tom Murrin that comprises masks\, costumes\, scripts\, correspondence\, photographs\, and tapes of performances going back to the early 70s. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed his 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. When he didn’t have a club date\, 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.

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Murray a film by Paul Tschinkel
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 28th / 7 PM / Free\nHowl! Happening—home of the Elizabeth Murray memorial wall—is pleased to present a moving portrait of the artist by filmmaker Paul Tschinkel. Elizabeth 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–and 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\, New York Times art critic\, Roberta Smith\, and Robert Storr\, curator of Murray’s 2005 retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art. \nPAUL TSCHINKEL is a painter with an MFA from the Yale School of Art and Architecture. In the early 1970s 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 a half hour weekly arts program–a gallery on television. (Paul Tschinkel’s Inner-Tube) In 1979\, Paul Tschinkel began taping young bands in New York Clubs for his cable show\, a program that ran for 3 years and that inspired and presaged MTV. Since then\, he has produced a video series on contemporary art called ART/new york (artnewyork.org/store) which includes ELIZABETH MURRAY – No. 29. \n

SUMMARY:When Jackie Met Ethyl Curated by Dan Cameron
DESCRIPTION:When Jackie Met Ethyl\nGuest curated by Dan Cameron \nThis exhibition considers the cultural and historical impact of Jackie Curtis (1947-1985) and Ethyl Eichelberger (1945-1990) two of the most influential figures from the East Village’s heyday as a cauldron of transgressive gender-twisting performance. Although both came from the same generation and shared an overlapping support base\, an instinctive feminist outlook\, and a deep grounding in the absurd\, Curtis and Eichelberger were very different figures\, and are not believed to have known each other personally. \nJackie Curtis was born John Curtis Holder\, Jr. on the Lower East Side\, and mostly raised by his maternal grandmother\, known as Slugger Ann\, whose eponymous bar on 2nd Avenue was a well-known refuge for social misfits. A member of Andy Warhol’s original network of Superstars — along with Candy Darling and Holly Woodlawn –\, Curtis’ stage debut was at age 17 in Tom Eyen’s Miss Nefertiti Regrets\, followed by roles in the Paul Morrissey films Flesh (1968) and Women in Revolt (1971). Aside from possessing a mesmerizing screen presence\, Curtis’ greatest artistic influence was as playwright and songwriter for the productions Glamour\, Glory and Gold; Vain Victory; and Heaven Grand in Amber Orbit\, all of which featured transsexual characters. The Jackie Curtis signature ‘look’ — glitter and lipstick combined with ripped stockings and/or housedresses – was widely adopted in the 1970s and 1980s\, and in 2004 the documentary Superstar in a Housedress brought the Curtis legend to a new generation. \nEthyl Eichelberger was born James Roy Eichelberger in rural Illinois\, and spent much of his first thirty years studying acting and working in regional repertory theater\, eventually becoming an expert wigmaker and member of Charles Ludlam’s Ridiculous Theatrical Company. In 1975 he legally changed his first name to Ethyl and introduced a flamboyant stage presence\, singing while playing piano and accordion\, and radically re-conceiving classic characters like King Lear and Medea as drag cabaret. Although Eichelberger appeared in films\, Broadway theater productions\, and an HBO series for kid\, and was a successful commercial actor\, his main impact was as a performer in intimate East Village venues like P.S. 122\, Pyramid Lounge\, 8BC\, and s.n.a.f.u.. In the course of more than thirty original and adapted plays\, his was nearly always the title role\, often with multiple male and female characters switching parts\, and occasional acrobatic or circus stunts thrown in for equal measure. \nWhen Jackie Met Ethyl will feature a number of different media\, key among them video documentation – by Nelson Sullivan\, among others — of plays\, poetry and songs written and performed by the two artists\, along with script excerpts\, props and memorabilia from productions of these and other performances. Also included are images of Eichelberger and Curtis by photographers Peter Hujar\, Dona McAdams\, Jack Mitchell\, Billy Sullivan\, Ande Whyland\, and Kirila Faeh\, to demonstrate how the legacy of these two artists continues to influence culture\, When Jackie Met Ethyl will also include the 1994 sculpture\, Big Round Flat\, from A Flower for Ethyl series\, by Oliver Herring\, and recent interpretations of Curtis’ and Eichelbergers’ work by contemporary artists. \nThe accompanying publication will include an introductory essay by curator Dan Cameron\, along with texts by Penny Arcade\, Brian Butterick\, Joe E. Jeffreys\, Robert Heide\, Craig Highberger\, Agosto Machado\, and Joan Moossy. \n

DESCRIPTION:Readings by Mike DeCapite and Max Blagg\nShort Films by Ted Barron\nWednesday\, May 11th / 7PM / FREE\nIn what is seen\, there should be just the seen;\nIn what is heard\, there should be just the heard;\nIn what is sensed\, there should be just the sensed;\nIn what is thought\, there should be just the thought.\n—Buddhist saying \nDeCapite\, Barron\, and Blagg are all connoisseurs of the street. This evening is about the pleasures of strolling around New York City\, observing the present moment—immersing in the pure euphoria of that action. Writers DeCapite and Blagg both describe themselves as flaneurs\, a literary type first identified in 19th century France implying an urban explorer. DeCapite and Blagg describe exactly what’s in front of them\, yet they’re also aware of how the city interacts with memory and imagination—an interaction that is activated by the ecstasy of keen observation. Photographer Ted Barron is “a thief of the imagination\,” able to transmit a timeless moment that needs no narrative yet tells a powerful story. This evening will be the second in a series. The third installment of the Sparkle Street Social & Athletic Club will take place on June 12\, and will feature Mike DeCapite\, Ted Barron\, Vincent Katz\, and Luc Sante. \nI climb out on the fire escape . . . I know I’m supposed to have something to say\, but I’m happiest when I’m just a recording device. I don’t have anything to say. I write from an impulse to catalog. The frustration of not being a visual artist\, I guess. It’s exhausting that everything should mean something. The human curse. I can tell myself I’m just out harvesting details\, but something in me needs to arrange them so they mean something.             \n—Mike DeCapite\, from “April Morning Fire Escape” \nABOUT: \nMike DeCapite\nTed Barron\nMax Blagg \n  \nphoto: Ted Barron

SUMMARY:Full Moon Show: Dixon Place Presents Tom Murrin Performance Award
DESCRIPTION:A Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention\nSunday\, May 22\, 2016 / 4 PM / Free\nPerformances by Agosto Machado\, Nora Burns\, Pedro J. Rosado Jr.\, Miss Joan Marie Moossy\, Jacqueline Zahora\, Patricia Sullivan\, Monstah Black\, Black-Eyed Susan\, Joe E. Jeffries\, Nicky Paraiso\, Yackez\, and introducing Jasper Shorty  \nHowl! Happening’s monthly Full Moon Performance Series hosts Dixon Place’s 4th Annual Tom Murrin Performance Award\, also known as “The Tommy.” This year’s award goes to Laurie Berg\, known for her absurd\, darkly humorous choreography and living collages. \nSurrounded by Howl!’s seminal exhibition\, When Jackie Met Ethyl\, the three blithe spirits—Jackie Curtis\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, and Tom Murrin—are invoked and honored in featured performances by Agosto Machado\, Nora Burns\, Pedro J. Rosado Jr.\, Miss Joan Marie Moossy\, Jacqueline Zahora\, Patricia Sullivan\, Monstah Black\, Black-Eyed Susan\, Joe E. Jeffries\, Nicky Paraiso\, Yackez\, and introducing Jasper Shorty. Howl!’s Full Moon series is curated by fellow performance artist and friend Salley May. \nThe Tommy is an annual award granted to a NYC-based early career artist or company who embodies Tom Murrin’s generous artistic spirit and gift for unearthing big\, meaningful ideas by creating resourceful\, exuberant\, mysterious\, enlightening\, theatrical\, luminous and remarkable performance. The award was created in 2013 to honor Murrin\, who passed away in 2012. He was an inspiration\, a mentor and a role model for countless young and emerging artists. The award is intended to provide a transformative career opportunity to its recipient\, who receives a yearlong residency\, followed by a 3-night run at Dixon Place and an honorarium. Past recipients include ANIMALS Performance Group (2013)\, Andrew Schneider (2014) and Monstah Black (2015). \nAbout Laurie Berg \nLaurie Berg makes work in a variety of forms including dance and performance\, collage\, and jewelry. With an ongoing interest in iconography\, honed absurdity and sharp\, sometimes dark humor\, Berg draws out a multiplicity of meanings and associations from her subject matter to create a living collage. Berg is also a co-organizer of AUNTS\, a roving event platform guided by core principles of collectivity\, cooperation and sharing. Most recently her work was presented at Danspace Project and as part of the Joyce UNLEASHED Series at The Invisible Dog Art Center. She was a 2013 New York Live Arts – Studio Series resident artist\, a 2010-2012 Movement Research Artist-In-Residence. Her jewelry\, which plays with the juxtaposition of real and fake\, new and old\, precious and plastic\, can be seen around the necks of many dance artists in NYC. \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. Under the guidance of famed 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. 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\, Performance Space 122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and later at the 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. \nDixon Place\, an incubator for performing and literary artists since 1986 and non-profit organization\, is committed to supporting the creative process by presenting original works of dance\, theater\, music\, puppetry\, literature\, performance and visual art at all stages of development. This local haven inspires and encourages diverse artists of all stripes and callings to take risks and push personal and professional limits. Dixon Place’s foremost priorities are to serve as a safety net for artists\, and to provide vivid experiences for our audiences. Dixon Place is located at 161A Chrystie Street\, New York City 10002.

DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 3–Wednesday\, June 8\nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project and Bowery Arts + Science present a Six-Day Celebration Honoring the Poets\, Musicians\, Bookstores\, and Significant Individuals Whose Voices and Energy Transformed America Forever.\nFeaturing key figures in the beat movement\, music\, film\, panel discussions\, happenings\, personal reminiscences and…beyond!\nDavid Amram\nSteve Cannon\nLen Chandler\nAnn Charters\nThe Fugs\nJohn Giorno\nPeter Hale\nDavid Henderson\nBob Holman\nJoyce Johnson\nHettie Jones\nThe Last Poets\nMichael McClure\nBill Morgan\nMargaret Randall\nBob Rosenthal\nEd Sanders\nPeter Stampfel\nSteven Taylor\nJohn Tytell\nAnne Waldman\nHal Willner\nRegina Weinreich\nand more \nThe Beats changed everything. Literature\, art\, music and social justice—they led the way\, questioning tradition\, giving voice to the “other” in U. S. culture\, and bringing to light the hypocrisy\, conservatism\, and dark side of post-World War II America. They instigated changes that mark the beginning of the counterculture and are at the intersection of the freedoms we now see as the essential through-line of contemporary life in this country: freedom of expression\, the sexual revolution\, identity and multiculturalism\, the hippies and drugs\, the introduction of Eastern culture and Buddhism\, and the political movements of today. All of these can be seen to have been influenced by the Beat zeitgeist. \nHowl! Happening and Bowery Arts + Science are pleased to present a week-long\, multi-venue celebration of the Beats and their influence on American culture. Beat & Beyond honors the poets\, musicians\, bookstores\, publishers\, and other significant individuals whose voice and energy transformed the U.S. forever. Bringing together many of the originators of the movement with artists who follow in their lineage and contemporary cultural commentators\, Beat & Beyond includes readings\, personal reminiscences\, music\, and appearances by contemporary commentators who give voice to the tectonic shifts in the arts and politics resulting from this historic period in American history\, and showcases the many threads and lineages that continue through the art of today. \nFriday\, June 3rd:\nHowl! Happening – Happy Birthday\, Allen! \nSaturday\, June 4th:\nHowl! Happening – A Day of Remembrance\nBowery Electric – An Evening of Concerts \nSunday\, June 5th:\nHowl!

SUMMARY:BEAT & BEYONDConcert
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 4\, 8:00 PM\n$15 Bowery Electric\, 327 Bowery\, New York \nA diverse and influential group of musicians come together to raise the roof\, tell it like it is\, and share the joy of sounds and messages originating in the Beat era. \nPeter Stampfel: A singer/songwriter and fiddler\, Stampfel was a member of the psychedelic folk band The Holy Modal Rounders\, and briefly with the Fugs. He was the leader of several musical projects including The Bottlecaps and the WORM All-Stars and has performed with They Might be Giants\, The Roches\, and Loudon Wainwright III\, among others. \nThe Fugs with Ed Sanders: Highly influential and always anarchic\, The Fugs were founded in 1965 and quickly became a countercultural phenomenon known for combining classical poetry with outrageous\, political\, raunchy\, and often downright hilarious lyrics. Ed Sanders\, the co-founder with Tuli Kupferberg\, is a poet\, scholar\, social activist\, and publisher of The Woodstock Journal. Also in the band is Steven Taylor\, noted composer and professor at Naropa University in Boulder\, Colorado\, who performed with Allen Ginsberg for many years. Famous Fugs tunes include: “Slum Goddess From the Lower East Side\,” “We Don’t Allow No Robots in Sunday School\,” “Refuse to Be Burnt-Out\,” and Tuli’s ever-popular “Nothing.” Coby Batty and Scott Petito shall also rock out. \nThe Last Poets Umar Bin Hassan\, Abiodun Oyewole\, Babatunde: Coming out of the Civil Rights movement in the late 60s\, The Last Poets were one of the earliest purveyors of politically-charged\, urgent poetry—the precursors of hip hop. Their fiery spoken word and taut rhythms are credited with influencing and paving the way for the emergence of Rap and Hip Hop music. Speaking out about racism\, poverty and other concerns\, their work is as relevant and inspirational today as it was when they began.

Along with his sometime collaborator Charles Burnett (Killer of Sheep)\, Woodberry was a leading figure in the L.A. Rebellion\, the loose collective of black filmmakers who emerged from the UCLA Film School in the mid-1970s and foregrounded social and political issues in their work.” — Neil Young\, Hollywood Reporter \n8 PM: The Films of Taylor Mead\nTaylor Mead\, the Poet laureate of Warhol’s Factory\, the world’s first Underground Movie Star\, and the Lower East Side’s own poet maudit\, is remembered with a rare showing of The Flower Thief as well as The Party In Taylor Mead’s Kitchen and other Mead films.
