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:Mike DeCapite The Sparkle Street Social & Athletic Club Series
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, April 13 /  7 PM / Free\nHowl! Happening is pleased to present a series of readings and multimedia events curated by writer and publisher Mike DeCapite with his long-time collaborator\, photographer Ted Barron. The Sparkle Street Social & Athletic Club series brings together writers and creators sharing a downtown sensibility and an engagement with the present moment. Cutting across the reality of New York’s gritty urban environment\, they turn words and pictures into stories that illustrate the way in which a fleeting moment can evoke the poetry of the city\, its changing atmosphere\, and the bittersweetness of the human condition. The series continues on May 11 and June 12\, and will include: \nA multimedia presentation of collaborations between between Mike DeCapite and Ted Barron. DeCapite will read from his novel Ruined for Life! and other sources\, while Barron projects photographs taken during the course of their long association. \nA multimedia reading by Maggie Dubris from Broke-Down Palace: a history in poems of Saint Clare’s—the Hell’s Kitchen hospital where Dubris worked as an EMT for years—accompanied by Dubris’s short films. Dubris’s published work includes WillieWorld\, brought out as a CUZ Edition by Richard Hell\, the collection Weep Not\, My Wanton (Black Sparrow)\, the novel Skels (Soft Skull)\, and the 9/11 first-responder meditation In the Dust Zone (Centre-Ville Books). \nA multimedia presentation of East of Bowery\, based on Ted Barron and Drew Hubner’s book of that name\, featuring Barron’s photographs\, Hubner’s short fiction about streetlife on the Lower East side in the 1980s\, and music by jazz musicians Daniel Carter and Reuben Radding. \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
