SUMMARY:Brett De Palma Dreaming on the Bowery: Post-Apocalyptic Paintings
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Saturday\, November 18 / 6 PM / Free\nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to present Dreaming on the Bowery\, a retrospective of paintings by New York artist Brett De Palma. A representative selection of his nimble\, allegorical\, and chaotic figuration\, the works include contemporary paintings that serve as canvas for De Palma’s commentary on the current political and cultural climate\, as well as works made over the course of the last 30 years—replete with satire\, farce\, and funky humor. \nThis exhibition features a dazzling group of large-scale paintings that display a willful reticence of refinement and a handmade\, playful style. Furious scuffles of paint spawning half-smothered epic-historical subject matter synthesize a crude\, rude\, rough around the edges American brashness. Living and working in the late 70s and 80s\, he was on the downtown scene\, pulling from his experience of iconic clubs and galleries where fashion elites\, artists\, and musicians convened. This same gritty\, decaying street scene in New York was the stage for luminous friends like Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Keith Haring\, Kenny Scharf\, Julian Schnabel\, and David Salle. \nIn an early review in the New Yorker\, renowned critic Lisa Liebmann says\, “In paintings that show rare daring and a fond insubordination to painterly fashion that is healthier than mere disregard […] De Palma’s splendid\, crazed work is really wild at heart\, a lot wilder\, in fact\, than Fauve art.”\nA sharp yet playful humor and sardonic\, critical view of humankind is characteristic of De Palma’s personality and his approach to creating art—he describes his work as having no rules. As an artist\, his goal is to open possibilities rather than restrict freedom of style\, subject matter\, or technique. Through a synthesis of contradictory elements—hard edges and soft forms\, sensuality and roughness\, humor and darkness—De Palma’s art depicts the shifting quality of life in all its quirkiness. \n“For the artists who love their work and feel that it is meaningful\, productive efforts are a type of devotion\,” says De Palma. “My work flies in the face of fashion and demonstrates how the artist and poet must fight the gods of our society: the god of conformism\, as well as the gods of apathy\, material success\, and exploitative power.” \nWith each composition\, he aims to discover and express the depth of character and thought that springs from an authentic view of life\, untainted by commercial forces or the art market. In a world where the shrewd prosper and the hardworking innocents find themselves outside the system\, De Palma has resisted in solitary solidarity with his own vision—being alone\, keeping his distance\, maintaining the peace of mind necessary for listening to one’s deeper self. \nHerein lies the timeless fear that every society harbors about its artists. They are the ones who threaten the status quo that society is devoted to protecting. Such an artist is Brett De Palma. \nAbout Brett De Palma \nDe Palma worked at Sperone Westwater Fischer Gallery and was included in 1982’s Documenta 7\, curated by Dutch art historian Rudi Fuchs. He exhibited with Tony Shafrazi and Fawbush galleries. De Palma was the recipient of an NEA grant and has shown nationally and internationally. He taught advanced painting in the early 90s at Princeton and has been on the faculty of School of Visual Arts in New York for the past 28 years. From 1992 to 2005\, De Palma was also director of creative arts at VillageCare\, a Manhattan AIDS day treatment program. \n

SUMMARY:Joseph Keckler Dragon at the Edge of a Flat World: Portraits and Revelations
DESCRIPTION:Reading and Book Signing\nJoseph Keckler is a magician\, a vagabond of the outer boroughs with an eye for the unorthodox\, irregular\, anomalous\, and uncanny. By turns mordant and melancholy\, decadent and delirious\, these are stories to cherish\, as brilliant and charming as the writer himself. —Olivia Laing \nHowl! Happening is pleased to celebrate the publication of Joseph Keckler’s first book\, Dragon at the Edge of a Flat World\, with a reading and book signing. Reality\, embellishment\, and fantasy intermingle in 20 mesmerizing tales by the acclaimed performing artist. Published by Turtle Point Press. \nRanging between different periods of his life and written over the course of a decade\, these episodes confirm Keckler’s storytelling mastery. As we are led through corners of downtown New York and the Midwest\, we are introduced to his mentors and muses\, odd jobs and odder employers. What is it like to work for a blind man who runs an art gallery? Or for an aging club kid who administers a university classics department? Outré characters turn art into a religion and make a spectacle of daily life. Some strive to be center stage and others struggle to be seen\, but all soldier on in the margins. In this world\, you may board a familiar bus or train and find yourself in some shady netherworld\, or skipping past midnight on New Year’s Eve. There is sex with ghosts. And the incessant GPS voice that mocks the last moments of a longtime love. \nJoseph Keckler is a captivating raconteur\, with a delicious ability to transform scenes of dread into comedic triumph. His deadpan delivery contrasts brilliantly with his virtuoso appetite for moody glissandi and hectic staccati.  I marvel at the social incongruities—the faux pas\, the accidental couplings\, the identity slippages—that he narratively dishes out as if they were artisanal pizzas\, seasoned with a hilarity and drama that add up to box office boffo. \n—Wayne Koestenbaum \nAbout Joseph Keckler
