SUMMARY:Tony Whitfield RUMINATIONS: Notes on New Love
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception Wednesday 17th October\, 6-8pm\, Free\n  \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to present a major new body of work by artist Tony Whitfield. At the center of this exhibition is Notes on New Love\, a video work exploring ways in which queer males recognize and embrace the otherness of their desires. Drawing from a series of interviews\, Whitfield sees this work as a meditation on how queer desire blossoms\, thrives\, and survives categorization as sexual misconduct. Conducted in the process of developing New Love\, 1910: World Out of Kilter is a theater piece that premiered this spring at La MaMa E.T.C. Notes on New Love is a collaborative project with Whitfield CoLabs’ composer and video editor Andrew Alden\, and Alden’s Detroit-based venture Obscura Broadcasting Company. \nIn this exhibition\, Whitfield contextualizes the series of short videos in Notes on New Love by counterbalancing them with a group of two-dimensional works in several parts that lay bare the artist’s competing preoccupations. These pieces serve as transformative exercises\, exploring components of Whitfield’s experience as an evolving figure in a turbulent queer landscape. Each work consists of a series of rethinkings\, minings\, broodings\, or mutterings that articulate various aspects of a life lived in awkward relationship to other humans. Grounded in the specifics of his biography as a black\, queer\, mature male who has navigated through decades of challenging circumstances\, Whitfield has gathered these works together as what he calls “a meditation on endurance.” \nIn Lessons Learned\, each grid of brightly colored text written by Whitfield is a (self) portrait constructed from a catalog of the artist’s dated recognitions that have influenced his behavior. Each grid was selected from that catalog by men in Whitfield’s life. The resulting works are joint self-portraits of Whitfield and his collaborators\, chosen for the ways in which the facts of life they state have influenced the artist’s behavior\, and for their resonance as shared truths.  \nHe Lives Everyday is Whitfield’s reverie on states of mind that “cloak [his] daily passage through the world.” Various Infatuations pays homage to men who have captured Whitfield’s romantic imagination over 50 years\, from puberty into middle age.  inquiries\, statements\, listing\, which began as a meditation on violence against queer people\, is a document consisting of remnants from Whitfield’s June 2016 window installation at Printed Matter. \nWhitfield says of the exhibition: “I have never been a skillful reporter; I can’t get far enough away from the specifics of what I know\, what I see\, what I think I can trust. While I believe there are facts\, my understanding of those facts is often fleeting. This show is about the view of the world I can hold on to— in all of its queerness. I have learned to find comfort in that queerness.” \n  \nAbout Tony Whitfield  \nTony Whitfield is a multimedia artist\, designer\, and educator whose theater work has been shown by LaMaMa E.T.C. His art and photographic works have been shown in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums including the Museum of Arts and Design in Manhattan; the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art; The Pop-Up Museum of Queer History; the Instituto Cultural Peruano Norteamericano in Lima\, Peru; and Le Centre LGBT Paris Île-de-France.

SUMMARY:The Séance Moon: Improvised by Matt Dennie
DESCRIPTION:The Séance Moon: Improvised by Matt Dennie \nThe Full Moon Show: A Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention Curated by Rani O’Brien \n  \nséance noun \nsé·ance | \ ˈsā-ˌän(t)s \,  -ˌäⁿs \, sā-ˈ \ \n(French: “sitting”) in occultism\, meeting centered on a medium (q.v.)\, who seeks to communicate with spirits. \nAfter a stint in Living Theatre\, Matt Dennie joins Howl! to facilitate the October Full Moon Séance. While the manic comic Tom Murrin conjured the Goddess Luna Macaroona at each full moon\, in this fully improvised séance\, Matt Dennie utilizes the help of the audience to conjure the dead. Live people ignore the strange and unusual\, but who knows what kind of spirit Matt will conjure: Gozer the Traveler? Mary Plunkett? Patrick Swayze? Stuff your pockets with something for Luna Macaroona\, just in case. \n“The early 20th century séances and mediums seems laughably naive compared to the works of Matt Dennie.” —Carolyn Mary Angela Tina Marie the VI of The New York Times \n“If you’ve got the spine\, Matt Dennie’s seance brings the tingle.” —Malcolm Turnbull in the opinion section of the Canberra Long Form Harold \n“I felt something.” —Matt’s girlfriend. \n“I told him it was a waste of time.” —Besser. \nMatt is a comedian\, actor and writer originally from Washington state. A performer and teacher at the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre\, he can be seen every Sunday night improvising in Higgins: The Instagram Show. He also produces the long-running alternative comedy showcase COOL SHIT/WEIRD SHIT. Matt has appeared on MTV\, IFC\, Comedy Central\, Above Average\, and was named a “Comic to Watch” by Time Out NY.   \n  \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nGodfather of performance art\, Tom popularized a hilarious show every full moon in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. Inviting friends to join him on both stage and street\, he pushed the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger and Lisa Kron among many others. Transforming the atmosphere with madness and magic\, Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues the Murrin tradition with pop-up performances in the gallery and on its sidewalk.  \nAbout The Tom Murrin Archive \nHowl! Happening safeguards 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 he premiered four plays 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. \nAbout Tom \nTom began to perform under the name Alien Comic\, opening for acclaimed punk bands in rock clubs such as CBGBs and Max’s Kansas City. As Alien Comic he performed 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’s created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and La Mama Experimental Theatre Club and Dixon Place\, called The Full Moon Show.

SUMMARY:Crosstalk on Ruminations: Notes on New Love
DESCRIPTION:Panel Discussion with Tony Whitfield\, Carlo McCormick and Sur Rodney (Sur)\n  \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present a panel discussion on Tony Whitfield’s exhibition: Ruminations: Notes on New Love. Writers\, critics\, and art historians who contributed to the catalog look at Whitfield’s particular narratives and the metaphors that run through the varied art practices he has explored. In a variety of serial works\, Whitfield embraces queer identity as mutable lifelong experience\, manifested in learned strategies for living\, fluid expressions of desire and infatuation in the context of external responses and constraints. This panel brings these writers together with Whitfield to discuss provocative aspects of his work they did not explore in their essays.  \n “Each man Whitfield interviews explains his own stumbling first steps towards queer love and queer identity\, and in outline they are almost always the same. They are unsupported\, untaught\, denied role models\, and punished for their desires\,” says Hugh Ryan in his essay about the narratives embedded in video works at the center of the exhibition. Grounded in theses experiences of queer love and identity\, this panel will explore with Whitfield how he seeks to manifest their collateral complexities in a wide range of contexts and media ranging from video\, performance\, artist books\, installations\, curating\, writing\, furniture design\, and teaching.
