SUMMARY:Zeitgeist: The Art Scene of Teenage Basquiat
DESCRIPTION:An Exhibition and Special Events\nCurated by Sara Driver\, Carlo McCormick\, Mary-Ann Monforton and Howl! Happening \nOpening Sunday\, May 13\, 2018 / 6–8 PM / Free \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to announce Zeitgeist: The Art Scene of Teenage Basquiat\, a group exhibition focusing on the artists and scene around Jean-Michel Basquiat’s teen-aged\, pre-fame years. Curated by Howl! Happening\, Sara Driver\, Carlo McCormick\, and Mary-Ann Monforton\, Zeitgeist complements and amplifies the theatrical release of Sara Driver’s film BOOM FOR REAL The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat from Magnolia Pictures. The film premieres on May 11th at IFC\, New York. \nThe period covered in the exhibition and film tells the story of Jean-Michel’s early work\, peers\, and creative community in gritty\, pre-AIDS\, downtown New York—before the rise of the 80s art and real estate juggernaut. It was a time when decay\, drugs\, and dissolution fueled a boom in creativity where the definition of fame\, success\, and power was not based on money\, Facebook likes\, and self-promotion. For these creators\, to be a penniless published poet or a musician gigging at CBs was the height of success. In the rawness of the work\, the focus on street art and graffiti\, and the experimentation and cross-pollination of styles and disciplines\, the era has become a flash point for younger generations seeking to learn about and understand the authenticity\, closeness\, and community expressed in the work of the artists in Zeitgeist. \nThe exhibition—and a series of special events—illuminate Basquiat’s work and that of his friends and other artists\, writers\, filmmakers\, and musicians who emerged from that scene\, including: \nAlexis Adler\, Charlie Ahearn\, Ted Barron\, Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Philippe Bordaz\, Robert Carrithers\, Henry Chalfant\, Brett De Palma\, Vivienne Dick\, Jane Dickson\, Al Diaz\, Barbara Ess\, Coleen Fitzgibbon\, Fab 5 Freddy\, Futura\, Robert Goldman aka Bobby G\, Godlis\, Nan Goldin\, Richard\, Hambleton\, Michael Holman\, Becky Howland\, Tessa Hughes-Freeland\, Jim Jarmusch\, Justen\, Ladda\, Ann Messner\, Mary-Ann Monforton\, James Nares\, Glenn O’Brien\, Franc Palaia\, Lee Quiñones\, Walter Robinson\, Christy Rupp\, Luc Sante\, Kenny Scharf\, Paul Tschinkel\, Robin Winters\, and Bob Gruen. \nSpecial events will include: \n\nA panel discussion featuring Alexis Adler\, Felice Rosser\, Lee Quiñones\, Al Diaz\, and more\nA screening of Howard Brookner’s 1983 documentary Burroughs: The Movie from the Criterion Collection\nAn evening of films featuring an experimental film by Basquiat’s bandmate Michael Holman\, and Paul Tschinkel’s film about New York/New Wave\, curator Diego Cortez’s groundbreaking exhibition at PS1 in 1981\nA night performance and readings by Felice Rosser and Luc Sante.\nReadings\n\nFilm Series in collaboration with Anthology Film Archives. Anthology Film Archives will present a special\, 2-part film series to celebrate the Zeitgeist exhibition at Howl! and the release of Boom for Real. Part 1 (May 4-14) brings together a selection of films about or involving Basquiat\, as well as works that came out of the same era and milieu. For Part 2 (May 17-29)\, various participants in Boom for Real will guest-select films from the period that they feel have been overlooked\, or simply films that influenced their own work. Curators include Sara Driver\, Charlie Ahearn\, Coleen Fitzgibbon\, Fab 5 Freddy\, Tessa Hughes-Freeland\, Jim Jarmusch\, James Nares\, Lee Quinones\, Felice Rosser\, and Luc Sante.

SUMMARY:Kestutis Nakas When Lithuania Ruled the World
DESCRIPTION:Part of the annual Writers Block Festival of Staged Readings and Performances to Benefit the Actors Fund\nHowl! Happening is pleased to present When Lithuania Ruled the World—a play cycle in four parts by Kestutis Nakas. Featuring a cast of East Village performance veterans including John Kelly and Edgar Oliver\, this is the first time the play cycle has been presented in its entirety. The event marks the centennial year of independence for modern Lithuania. When Lithuania Ruled the World traces the rise of the medieval Lithuanian Empire\, invoking the myths\, legends\, and worldview of Europe’s last pagans. By turns tragic\, comic\, ridiculous\, romantic\, and grotesque\, the play tells story of a dynasty that forged a tolerant\, polyglot\, multicultural empire while resisting conquest and forced Christianization by crusading Teutonic knights. \nWritten in Nakas’ trademark “iambic funtameter” style\, this sprawling work was first presented in New York’s East Village at the Pyramid Club\, La MaMa\, and Anthology Film Archives in the 80s and early 90s. \nDirectors \nParts One & Four: Kestutis Nakas \nPart 2: Brian Butterick (aka Hattie Hathaway) \nPart 3: co-directed by Gary Ray \n  \nPart One: Thursday\, June 14\, 2018 / 7 PM / $10\nFor tickets to Part I \nPart Two: Friday\, June 15\, 2018 / 7 PM / $10\nFor tickets to Part II \nPart Three: Sunday\, June 17\, 2018 / 2 PM / $10\nFor tickets to Part III \nPart Four: Sunday\, June 17\, 2018 / 6 PM / $10\nFor tickets to Part IV \nAll of the proceeds from ticket sales benefit Howl! HELP and the Actors Fund.  \n About WRITERS BLOCK 2018  \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to present the annual Writers Block 2018 Festival. Created to showcase the vision of contemporary writers\, performers\, and artists—many of whom got their start in the nightclubs\, seminal performance spaces\, and theaters associated with the East Village and Lower East Side—the festival showcases some of the most important playwrights and performers in theater today. New works in progress are presented at this intimate\, ultimate downtown theatrical event. Writers Block 2018 runs throughout the year with a week of short plays and one-acts in the fall and various blocks of full-length plays over the year. \nThe festival is a benefit for the Howl! Emergency Life Project (Howl! HELP)\, which provides emergency financial assistance and social service support to artists who have made or continue to make their careers in New York’s East Village and Lower East Side arts communities. All of the proceeds from ticket sales benefit the Actors Fund.  \n“Howl! HELP is an integral part of Howl Arts’ vision to provide a safe haven for artists from our neighborhood\,” says Jane Friedman\, founder of Howl! Happening. “Writers Block is both a creative outlet and a benefit to insure the health and well-being of our community.” Howl Happening also hosts free\, monthly health care and housing workshops presented by the Actors Fund.

SUMMARY:Eszter Balint & Stew I Hate Memory
DESCRIPTION:A musical journey through the winsome past of Eszter Balint\nThursday\, April 19\, 2018 / 7 PM / Free\nFriday\, May 18\, 2018 / 7 PM / Free\nFriday\, June 22\, 2018 / 7 PM / Free \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present an evening of songs and stories called I Hate Memory! A wistful travelogue of the winsome past of EB\, which brings together two legendary downtown creators\, Eszter Balint (The Star) and Stew (The Director). Featuring an anti-cabaret which co-stars the Streets of New York and the Late 20th Century\, and which features appearances by family\, film and fame\, immigration\, joy\, theater and shame\, dance floors\, open doors\, avant-garde life\, papaya ice cream and the Shah of Iran’s wife. A reluctant memoir served on bed of song and dirt\, with a punk aperitif and Jimmy Carter for dessert. \nEszter sings and plays guitar and violin\, while Stew does the quieter singing and plays guitar\, with Vincent Sperrazza on drums and Kato Hideki on bass. \nI hate memory\nI hate memory\nI hate memory\nMemory’s a predator \nEszter Balint is a singer-songwriter with three critically-acclaimed solo albums. She grew up as a member of the legendary avant-garde theater company Squat Theatre. She’s had featured roles in films by Jim Jarmusch\, Woody Allen\, and Steve Buscemi—including a role alongside David Bowie—and has recently starred in a six-episode arc in Season 4 of Louis CK’s TV show Louie. Jon Pareles of The New York Times has said of her work: “Miss Balint has her own film noir sensibility as a songwriter. She slips inside her characters to project their restlessness and longing.” \nSinger-songwriter Stew is a founding member of the band The Negro Problem\, and a Tony and Obie award-winning playwright and composer (Passing Strange).
