SUMMARY:It's All True: The East Village Eye Show
DESCRIPTION:Portrait of David Byrne by Marcia Resnick \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to shine a light on another important source of East Village social and cultural history: The East Village Eye. A monthly magazine published from 1979 through 1987\, The East Village Eye focused on popular and avant-garde culture\, politics and other issues relevant to the East Village and environs. Self-styled as “a community in print\,” the magazine is noted for its groundbreaking coverage of the emerging punk\, new wave and hip hop music scenes of the time\, as well as the influential art\, literature\, film and performance worlds of the era. \nThe East Village Eye Show will feature covers\, centerfolds\, interior pages\, ephemera and photographic prints\, as well as key artwork from the era. The show draws from the nearly 4\,000 pages\, 3\,000 photographs\, sets of original copies and attendant materials that constitute The East Village Eye Archive\, dubbed “the King Tut’s tomb of downtown New York.” \nArtist and Colab co-founder Christof Kohlhofer was the first art director of the Eye. Kohlhofer\, who studied with Joseph Beuys\, introduced Abrams to the influential artists who were a part of the flourishing EV art scene. “I credit Christof with steering the Eye towards art\, but also for injecting a Beuys-like approach. Basically doing whatever was necessary at the time\,” says Abrams in the 2014 Hyperallergic article The East Village Eye: Where Art\, Hip Hop\, and Punk Collided. \nAs a result\, the magazine featured art world luminaries including David Wojnarowicz\, Richard Hell\, Cookie Mueller\, Lucy Lippard\, and Rene Ricard. The magazine’s covers read like a who’s who of cultural influencers like Patti Astor\, Robert Mapplethorpe\, and Vito Acconci; emerging artists such as Sue Coe\, Barbara Kruger and Kiki Smith; as well as musicians like Patti Smith\, Run DMC\, Annie Lennox\, and the Beastie Boys. \nRichard Hell explained how he and other New Yorkers\, and not English kids\, “invented” punk; Cookie Mueller dished out bold and often hilarious health advice; Glenn O’Brien\, the leading avant-pop writer and media figure\, expounded on the New York Yankees; and the aforementioned David Wojnarowicz wrote about his harrowing past and present as a street hustler and later as an artist living with HIV. \nCreative collaboration was the hallmark of the magazine’s legacy. “The mix of fashion\, music\, art\, politics\, comics etc.\, the way it was presented by the Eye\, the constant changing impact through all those different people who worked on the paper\, and Leonard’s attitude not to interfere with that\, made it a very lively subject\,” says Kohlhofer in the Hyperallergic article. \nOver a period of eight years\, the magazine chronicled the spectacular rise and eventual implosion of the East Village art scene. The Eye‘s coverage of the arts and music scenes helped illuminate the psychosocial conflicts running through EV/LES culture\, NYC\, and beyond. Later issues of the Eye touched upon the beginnings of radical changes in the neighborhood. In April 1986 the magazine ran a feature on the rise of “The East Village Yuppie.” Sixth months earlier\, the Eye’s art editor\, Carlo McCormick\, published an obituary for the neighborhood’s art scene. “Though the greed and envy have disbanded our beautiful community\,” wrote McCormick\, “the East Village will continue to exist as the simulacrum of itself. The art world is finally ready to preserve our youth like the glamorous visage of the internally decrepit Dorian Grey.” \nUltimately\, The East Village Eye was the monthly record of a time and place in which the radical shifts of the post-Vietnam era produced a reckless thirst for experience and expression that redefined the world we live in today. Through this exhibition\, Howl! Happening stands in solidarity with the EV/LES artists and community—past and present—whose creativity continues to fuel us. \nSpecial Events are also planned. Check the Howl! Happening website for updates.\nSeptember 18: Panel Discussion\nSeptember 24: New/No Wave Films\nSeptember 25: Cinema of Transgression\nOctober 6: Channeling the Dead: Readings of stories by deceased writers Kathy Acker\, Cookie Mueller\, Rene Ricard\, David Wojnarowicz and (too many) others. \nEast Village Eye – Special Edition \nA special edition of The East Village Eye will act as the catalogue. The tabloid-sized magazine will include historical essays; political commentary; articles about current events and people who are impacting our world; and guides to goings-on in downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn.

SUMMARY:Writers Block 2016 PresentsAlvin Eng The Imperial Image
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 10\, 2016 / 7 PM\nPart of the 2016 Writers Block staged reading and performance festival\nAlvin Eng brings the third in his Portrait Plays cycle of historical dramas about artists and portraiture. \nEng will present a work in progress reading from the third in his Portrait Plays cycle of historical dramas about artists and portraiture. The Imperial Image is a dramatic triptych that explores how and why portraits of political leaders and royalty have come to hold a powerful place in societal structures and rituals. The triptych spans three different regions and eras. The play begins with a dialogue in Mughal era India\, as Western-educated and influenced emperors and court painters contemplate how to communicate and relate to their largely illiterate populace. Part II is a monologue from Marie Antoinette’s court portraitist\, Louise Élisabeth Vigée LeBrun. During the French Revolution she fled to St. Petersburg\, where she was befriended by Catherine the Great. Many of Mme. Vigée LeBrun’s works are included in the original Hermitage collection. The play concludes in the current era: OBEY/HOPE re-imagines the circumstances surrounding Shepard Fairey’s creation of the ubiquitous “Hope” poster for Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign.  The cast will feature Marie Christine Katz\, Nicky Paraiso and Imran Sheikh. The reading will be directed by Wendy Wasdahl and Alvin Eng \nThis June\, the second Portrait Play\, 33 & 1/3 Cornelia Street\, was presented at the Howl! Gallery’s Beat & Beyond Festival\, featuring Bowery Poetry founder Bob Holman as Joe Gould and the legendary Mink Stole—who has been featured in all of John Waters’ films—playing iconic painter Alice Neel. Three Trees\, the first Portrait Play\, about the haunting relationship between Alberto Giacometti and Isaku Yanaihara\, premiered Off-Broadway with the Pan Asian Repertory Theatre and was also presented as a workshop reading with Center Stage in Baltimore and the Moving Parts Theatre in Paris. Eng is a native NYC playwright\, performer and professor. He is currently Visiting Professor/Head of the MFA Playwriting Program at Queens College/CUNY and is also a Fulbright Specialist Scholar in Theatre/U.S. Studies. His plays and performances have been seen throughout NYC and the U.S. as well as in Paris\, Hong Kong and Guangzhou. His plays and poetry have been published in Performing Arts Journal\, as well as the Nuyorican Poets Café anthologies Aloud and Action\, and he is the editor/author of the play anthology/oral history Tokens?: The NYC Asian American Experience on Stage.  About Alvin Eng. \nTICKETS: $20 Suggested Donation\nLimited Space.

SUMMARY:TABBOO! New Paintings!
DESCRIPTION:“Tabboo!’s portraits have an arresting honesty.“\n—Sean Mellyn\, Bomb\, 2013\nHowl! Happening is pleased to present a series of new paintings by Tabboo!—a creative force in the Downtown/East Village/Alphabet City worlds of art\, performance\, and nightclubs for close to 35 years. Well known as a painter\, Tabboo!’s subjects have ranged from still lifes to cityscapes—and he is renowned for his portraits. On view will be 14 portraits of Tabboo’s closest friends\, giving these new works an immediacy and potent emotional charge. \nThe portraits’ expressionist tone and vibrancy are embued with the innermost thoughts and personality of both the artist and the sitters. In these portraits of his friends\, we see Tabboo!’s own exuberant personality and his close\, personal relationship to his subjects. The portraits capture his intimates with a fresh\, emphathetic eye\, expressing their essential personality and the psychic depth beneath the painted surface of the linen. Poignant and loving\, they are a record of a cross-section of his friends—some well known in the downtown scene\, others just part of his tribe—and also a tribute to the creativity and continuum of culture that is alive and thriving—right here\, right now! \nTabboo!’s portraits recall the style of Alice Neel and Diane Arbus . . . Similar to Arbus\, there is a poignancy to Tabboo!’s portrayal of his subjects. They are shown alone and isolated in empty space. They connect directly to the viewer. Like Alice Neel\, Tabboo! foreshortens arms\, he adds vernacular details\, he brings out the warmth and domesticity of the setting\, and the networks of friendships.\n                               —Rupert Goldsworthy\, Tabboo! catalog essay \nLoaded with symbolism and emotive brushwork\, these portraits bring out magical details of the sitters’ inner and outer lives. The paintings vibrate with an uncanny life force. Clearly Tabboo! knows these people well! \nAlongside Mark Morrisroe\, Nan Goldin and Jack Pierson\, Tabboo! was a member of the so-called Boston School. Arriving at the wide open creative arena of the East Village in the 80s\, Tabboo!’s work is a riotous mixture of DIY energy and high camp. He has collaborated with countless artists\, musicians\, writers\, and performers and his distinctive style has had a profound impact on leading cultural figures of his generation. \nProlific in a way that borders on compulsivity\, [Tabboo!] was not only one of the most imaginative figures in the early-’80s East Village art scene: he also illustrated our world\, lending his hand to the cover art of era-defining records by the likes of Deee-Lite and Book of Love and producing a seemingly infinite array of flyers and ads for the most celebrated nightclubs of the day\, like the Pyramid Club and Mudd Club. He was just as likely to be found inside those clubs\, designing their interiors or commanding the stage as Tabboo! Of all that\, [Tabboo!] simply says\, ‘I worked in nightclubs when nightlife actually mattered.’\n                                    —Carlo McCormick\, Paper magazine\, 2013 \nTabboo! continues to make his mark. He recently expanded his artistic range in a collaboration with Marc Jacobs on a collection featuring his signature work. Tabboo! and the collection have been featured in an article by Tama Janowitz in August’s Harpers Bazaar and will also be featured in Le Monde in September. His work will be included in the Museum of Modern Art’s upcoming exhibition about the legendary Club 57 and his book Tabboo! was published by Damiani on the occasion of his major exhibition at Participant\, Inc. (New York). He has also had major shows at the University of Nevada\, Reno; AMP Market\, Provincetown; Vox Populi\, Philadelphia; Gallery Mitterand\, Paris; Gavlak Gallery\, Los Angeles; and The Museum of Santiago de Compostela\, Spain. \n“The great thing about being an artist is the freedom to be myself\,” he says. \nSPECIAL EVENT\nOctober 27\, 2016 / 7 PM\nFall Costume Extravaganza Produced and Directed by Tabboo!\nAn artsy\, over the top drag show in the style of classic Hollywood glamour\, the costume extravaganza will feature Agosto Machado\, Brandon Olson\, Flloyd\, Trish Astor\, Bobbie\, Soigne\, and\, of course\, Tabboo! A tribute to old-school queens\, expect tons of sequins\, yards of tulle\, and feathers galore. Check Howl! Happening’s website for updates. \nA fully illustrated catalog with texts by Rupert Goldsworthy\, Brandon Olson\, and others accompanies the show. \nVideo of Tabboo! talking about his artistic process here.
