SUMMARY:Antony Zito: My Father Was a Satyr
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Friday\, November 22 6–8 PM \nZito is one of my very favorite New York artists\, partly because he thinks of himself as an artisan and partly because he’s a fine and inventive painter. —Jim Jarmusch \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present Antony Zito’s My Father Was a Satyr. Fascinated by the detritus of everyday life left on the curbs of his East Village neighborhood\, Zito collects discarded objects to use as the basis for his paintings. Through the artist’s hand\, these artifacts’ stories—steeped in narratives all their own—merge with portraits of Zito’s peers\, adhering the inherent emotional energy of the intuitively rendered portraits to layers of the city’s history. \nIn the lineage of modern artists who worked across mediums and used unconventional materials and found objects\, with My Father Was a Satyr\, Zito creates his biggest installation to date—a towering construction layered with portraits\, metal sculpture\, and scavenged eye candy\, to form a whimsical ziggurat. \nMade up of large-scale welded metal sculpture flanked by sprawling\, multi-panel figurative paintings\, all of the materials are scavenged from street corners\, dump sites\, and scrap yards\, continuing his career-long tradition of painting portraits on found objects. The sculptures are built with an array of rusted and painted elements\, deftly combined to animate the form and feeling of a living entity—just as his portraits combine collage and paint with found materials\, turning recycled ingredients into renderings of living\, breathing people. \n \n“New York is a city of faces\,” says Zito\, “and I am obsessed with them. Whether it’s the local bodega owner\, the billboard model\, the lost soul on the corner\, or the people I most enjoy spending time with\, I dive into faces\, searching for their narrative\, for some message or meaning. I gather these faces in my imagination\, mixing them with memories and experiences I’ve absorbed in the course of my life in New York.” \nAntony Zito is a portrait painter and collector of objects\, who moved to the Lower East Side from New England in 1992. Zito has spent more than 20 years on New York’s Lower East Side\, where he ran a gallery and portrait studio on Ludlow Street through 2006. His portraits of the local characters illustrate a sweeping line through the 90s and 2000s in the East Village rock and art scenes. The New York Post has called his paintings “sensual\,” and his renderings of people on recycled materials prompted The Village Voice to refer to him as “a master of the found object.” \nHis work has been exhibited and collected in the U.S.\, UK\, Italy\, France\, Spain\, Belgium\, Mexico\, and Japan. Several of Zito’s portraits and other artworks appear in the Jim Jarmusch films Coffee and Cigarettes and Broken Flowers. Zito recently completed a two-story mural in the East Village\, and is currently working on a documentary film about the Mars Bar\, illuminating his corner of the East Village and Lower East Side in the 90s and early aughts. \n

Happening: An Arturo Vega Project. Each workshop involves an original activity related to an aspect of the artist’s practice\, designed for participants to complete within the two hours allotted for the workshop.

SUMMARY:Full Moon Show with John Pizza: DEAD COWS
DESCRIPTION:“Its morning. I’m looking in the mirror. I see no fangs\, no fur\, I hear no howling. So why is my shower curtain so bloody? And why are there piles of freshly butchered steaks in my refrigerator?” \nJoin artist/performer John Pizza for The Full Moon Show: DEAD COWS\, a performance at Howl! Happening. Come gather — rain or shine\, happy or sad\, up or down — on the sidewalk outside the gallery at 4 PM sharp. \nWhen a young computer programmer falls asleep in front of his TV after work one night\, the line between horror movies and real-life blurs. One transformation can only lead to another and what begins as an innocent midnight snack ends with a domino effect of bloodied lives. Using found objects and homemade puppets\, a lycanthropic adventure tale unfolds in a small rural town\, where no one is safe\, especially the cows. \nJohn Pizza is a performer\, builder\, and drawer. He uses trash and thrift-store detritus scrounged in his Brooklyn neighborhood to tell stories and make his shows. He loves the macabre and the mushy sweet. His sculptures are performative\, and his performances involve sculptures—an object theatre of weird surprises. \nwww.johnpizza.net \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nHowl! Happening houses the archives of Tom Murrin. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed the Full Moon Show in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. When he had a club date that fell on the full moon\, he’d wrangle his friends to perform as his guests—pushing the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, Lisa Kron\, and many others. If not\, he performed on the street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic. Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues that tradition\, with performances in the gallery and surprise pop up performances on the street. \nAbout The Tom Murrin Archive \nHowl! Happening is the repository of 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. Tom wrote four plays performed through La MaMa and 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. \nUnder the guidance of rock manager Jane Friedman\, Tom 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. His plays Sport-Fuckers and Butt-Crack Bingo were produced at Theater for the New City and La MaMa and directed by David Levine. Tom was the first performance artist to appear on stage at the original Dixon Place location at 37 East First Street in 1986.

SUMMARY:Roberta Bayley: She Just Takes Pictures
DESCRIPTION:A film by Beth Lasch \nHowl! is pleased to present the world premiere of Beth Lasch’s Roberta Bayley: She Just Takes Pictures. \nThe documentary showcases Bayley’s punk-era photography from 1975 to 1986. Among the artists Bayley has photographed are Iggy Pop\, the Ramones\, Debbie Harry and Blondie\, Richard Hell\, Elvis Costello\, the Sex Pistols\, Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers\, Ian Dury\, Brian Eno\, Nick Lowe\, The Damned\, The Clash\, the Dead Boys\, X-Ray Spex\, Squeeze\, and a reunited New York Dolls. \nThe film includes candid interviews with the photographer and a peek into her longtime St. Marks Place apartment. Included are all of Roberta’s iconic photos—behind-the-scenes images\, classic live shots\, and intimate portraits\, plus many others rarely seen. The 33-minute film was created for Lasch’s television show F#TV and will be followed by a Q&A with Bayley and the director. \nArriving in New York in the spring of 1974\, Bayley soon began working the door at CBGBs—New York’s legendary punk club—photographing the musicians who played there. She soon went to work for Punk Magazine and is one of the main photographers to visually chronicle the early punk-rock scene. \nBayley’s photographs are featured in countless books and magazines on punk. She has exhibited in New York\, Los Angeles\, Buenos Aires\, Berlin\, Sydney\, Paris\, Austin\, Portland\, Amsterdam\, Tokyo\, Hong Kong\, London\, Mexico City\, and Pittsburgh. She co-wrote Patti Smith: An Unauthorized Biography (Simon & Schuster\, 1999) and published Blondie: Unseen 1976-1980 (Plexus\, 2006)\, her take on the seminal new-wave band. She appeared on-screen as a hooker in the gritty independent feature film Downtown 81 which starred Jean-Michel Basquiat and chronicled New York’s downtown 80s art scene. \nImage: Richard Hell by Roberta Bayley
