SUMMARY:Elizabeth Gregory-Gruen: Cut Work
DESCRIPTION:A Survey 2008–2018\n  \nOpening Reception: Thursday\, March 21 / 6–8 PM / Free\n  \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to present Elizabeth Gregory-Gruen’s Cut Work\, a freehand paper-cutting process that charts the contours of our ever-changing emotional landscape through the movement of form\, line\, color—and especially in Cut Work—light and shadow. Evolved over the course of 10 years\, Cut Work travels through Gregory-Gruen’s diverse vocabulary of mediums—from paper and metal to leather and 12-gauge gunshot blasts—to understand the play between visceral responses and meditative rest. \n“Cut Work is a process to open the mind’s imagination through contemplative reflection and vacate the strife of daily life\,” says Gruen. Using scalpel-cut multilayered imagery\, the dimensional layers make space for shadows to fall and move with a meditative vibration. Imperfection becomes perfection. There are no guides\, rules\, drawings\, or plans in the process. The image is determined freehand in the top layer of paper. An adhesive is added under the top layer\, followed by another layer of paper which is in turn cut—the process continuing to create multiple inward layers.  \nGregory-Gruen’s work in fashion design was a segue into the rediscovery of this current body of work. In 2000\, she began developing and evolving the technique used in Cut Work. The journey begins with pure shadow—investigating absence and movement against pure atmospheric light. The evolution continues with the infusion of color\, where the multilayered image finds both residence and freedom within defined edges. With the addition of highly saturated pigments\, the image is sharpened: the cut edges vibrate and move\, engaging the viewer in unexpected hypnotic optical experiences. \nWith authority\, but without fixed outcomes\, there is also risk in this work. “The coupling of skin and a surgeon’s scalpel brings forth complicated emotions\,” she says. The act of cutting skin brings life and death into high relief\, just like the artist searches to understand the chaotic jolts of everyday experience and the composure that permeate the work. Though the end result is very precise\, the calm that permeates the cut works is challenged by the artist’s introduction of a highly destructive tool. Random 12-gauge shotgun blasts to the perceived “perfection” of the work produce a visceral reaction. The result is an emotional paradox\, as the viewer’s perception is shaped by the violence and exhilaration of the act.  \nThe exhibition also features nuanced metal cut work and silkscreens created in collaboration with artist Gary Lichtenstein.  \nElizabeth Gregory-Gruen grew up in Chicago. Both her mother and grandmother were artists\, introducing Elizabeth to visual thinking and imagination at an early age. Inspired to pursue her creative ideas\, she moved to New York City in 1985 to attend Parsons School of Design. She received a BFA in Fashion Design in 1989 and went on to work in well-known design studios. In 2013\, Gregory-Gruen left fashion design to focus on the Cut Work exploration. She currently resides in New York City with her husband\, photographer Bob Gruen.

SUMMARY:Happy 100th Birthday Lawrence Ferlinghetti!
DESCRIPTION:Sunday March 24th 2019 is Lawrence Ferlinghetti’s 100th birthday. Poet\, painter\, socialist activist\, and the co-founder of City Lights Booksellers & Publishers\, Ferlinghetti has dedicated his life to poetry and free expression over the course of the US’s shifting attitudes towards censorship in the media in the 20th century. \nAs the defendant in the 1957 Howl Obscenity Trial\, Ferlinghetti was backed by the American Civil Liberties Union when he won the case in which California State Superior Court Judge Clayton Horn ruled that Allen Ginsberg’s Howl and Other Poems was of “redeeming social importance” and therefore not obscene. \nPaying tribute to this historic moment and honoring Ferlinghetti’s life and ongoing work\, Howl! Happening along with Bob Holman and Hal Wilner is delighted to host in New York City a 100th birthday party celebration in association with City Lights Bookstore and Knopf Doubleday publishers. The day will include a launch of Ferlinghetti’s new novel Little Boy. \nFeaturing Poets Ed Sanders\, Hettie Jones\, David Henderson\, Eileen Myles\, Bob Holman\, Anne Waldman\, Helixx C. Armageddon\, Puma Perl\, Maggie Dubris and Michael McClure (via videolink) along with performances by Eric Andersen and Lenny Kaye. \nThe afternoon will kick off with the NET documentary USA: Poetry; a screening of Chris Felver’s documentary Ferlinghetti\,  well as moments from Bob Holman’s United States of Poetry. The day will also include a group reading of one of Lawrence Ferlinghetti’s most iconic poems. \n  \nPhotos courtesy City Lights\, Knopf Doubleday & Peter Hale (Allen Ginsberg Estate) \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday: March 29\, 30\, and 31\, 2019 \nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to host the Third Eye Film Festival\, providing a new platform for films that delve into spiritual and supernatural realms.  \nFounded by RISD alumnae perpetually in pursuit of the unknown\, Third Eye Film Festival (TEFF) connects an international community of visionary filmmakers who explore ‘otherworldly’ stories. For a complete schedule click here. \nTEFF is proud to amplify the voices of marginalized artists. The official selection of TEFF 2019 celebrates filmmakers whose concepts live at the frontiers of innovation and revolution. Twenty-four of the 29 films in the Festival are made by women directors or cinematographers—more than 80% of the program!  \nOther novelties in store for the 3rd Third Eye Film Festival include: \n\nThird Eye’s first-ever screening of a feature: Joe Badon’s freshman film\, the hypnotizing bizarro-horror The God Inside My Ear. Created in New Orleans on a shoestring budget of $8\,000\, it is described in Scream Magazine as “Repulsion by way of David Lynch and Luis Buñuel.” Jump down the rabbit hole on Sunday\, March 31st to watch the mystery unfold.\nFive new films by Third Eye filmmakers from previous years. \nMusic videos in each film block! Including a dream-pop space love story in South Australian caves\, a Norwegian blackmetal cover of Bad Blood by Taylor Swift\, and more. \nShort film highlights include: A neon-colored Swedish teen vampire murder mystery (Blood Sisters)\, a first-person POV fantastical journey of a neurotic stoner struggling to get over her ex-girlfriend (Terminally in Love)\, an Iranian woman’s rebellion against society at her father’s funeral (TAAROF)\, an impatient 16-year-old performing a ritual to summon her first period (Bloody Hell)\, and much more!\n\n  \nFestival Directors Darian Brenner and Namrata Desai \nDarian is a producer and cinematographer from Hell’s Kitchen\, New York City.

In her free time\, she creates a popular webcomic called Vampire High School. Darian currently lives in New Orleans. \nNamrata was born in Mumbai\, India\, and grew up in northern New Jersey.

Through the Female Eye category\, TEFF offers discounted submission fees for films made by female directors and cinematographers to encourage their participation. TEFF is proud of its goal to break stigmas and highlight powerful female-driven content\, ultimately opening doors to social change.  \nIdentifying Spirituality in Genre Filmmaking \nThird Eye Film Festival supports and encourages unconventional storytelling through its unique  \nSpiritual category. This category provides a home for genre-fluid films about humanity\, the intangible\, and what lies beyond. These complex concepts also naturally lend themselves to filmmaking techniques that are dreamlike\, performative\, or otherwise experimental. TEFF proudly celebrates the marriage of art and personal truths. \nFB: www.facebook.com/thirdeyefilmfest \nTwitter: www.twitter.com/thirdeyeff \nInsta: @thirdeyefilmfest \nPhotos by Yoon
