SUMMARY:Icons\, Iconoclasts\, and Outsiders
DESCRIPTION:September 19\, 2021 – March 6\, 2022\nInaugural Exhibition at Howl! Arts/Howl! Archive (HA/HA)\nGrand Opening: Sunday\, September 19 / 11 AM–6 PM \nHowl Arts is pleased to announce the inaugural exhibition at its new space\, Howl! Arts/Howl! Archive (HA/HA). Icons\, Iconoclasts\, and Outsiders presents works by artists\, writers\, musicians\, scenesters\, performers\, icons\, iconoclasts\, outsiders and other creators from the 1960s to the present whose life and work energized the underground and are now entering mainstream cultural discourse. HA/HA is located at 250 Bowery\, just down the block from Howl! Happening. The exhibition continues through December 23\, 2021 and is co-curated by Howl executive director Jane Friedman with Sean Mellyn and Maynard Monrow. \nIcons\, Iconoclasts\, and Outsiders unveils previously undocumented aspects of downtown life and culture—the atmosphere of a wildly diverse neighborhood that has influenced successive generations. A refined collection of works of art\, cultural history\, and ephemera\, the exhibition presents the early Ramones banner Gabba Gabba Hey (1977) and the paintings by artist and founding spirit of the gallery Arturo Vega; Candy Darling’s the worst years of my life: a five year diary\, from the collection of her longtime friend Jeremiah Newton; David Wojnarowicz’s Saint Sebastian (1981)\, a portrait of Brian Butterick from his personal collection; costumes\, props\, and videos from The Alien Comic Tom Murrin’s archive; an exquisite photographic portrait by George Dureau and explosive paintings by Richard Hambleton from the Arturo Vega estate; a signature portrait by Helen Oliver Adelson; graphite portraits by John Kelly of gifted individuals who were part of his life and creative circles; cultural chronicler and photographer Marcia Resnick’s color portrait of William Burroughs (1980); and Scooter LaForge paintings that explore contemporary social issues through humor\, lavish decoration\, and exaggerated cartoon-like figures. \nAlso from the collection are works of art and archival materials from the 60s to the present including Philly Abe; Richard Bernstein; Don Herron; Mark Morrisroe; Dustin Pittman; Jamie Reid; Walter Stedding; Patti Smith; Tabboo!; Gail Thacker; Toyo Tsuchiya; Guy Woodard; as well as Mudd Club doorman extraordinaire Richard Boch’s personal papers; and materials from the estate of Clark Render\, known for his collaboration with David Ilku in The Dueling Bankheads. \nIn the new screening room\, Howl draws from its video archive of work by Merrill Aldighieri as the first VJ and early documentarian of the legendary 80s nightclub Hurrah; the archives of Efrom Allen\, host of the early public-access television show Underground TV\, featuring a range of unconventional guests including Sid Vicious\, the Ramones\, Marilyn Chambers\, Blondie\, Steve Allen\, Buddy Rich\, Stiv Bators\, Brooke Shields\, and William Shatner; and selections from the vaults of Howl TV including live performances\, readings\, panel discussions\, and happenings with artists\, writers\, musicians\, and thought-leaders who have enlivened the gallery since its inception in 2015. \nHowl’s Permanent Collection comprises over 3\,000 objects\, including art\, rare digital and analog media\, performance-art ephemera\, and personal archives from the 1960s onward. The Collection documents the origins and growth of local cultural and social movements that have had far-reaching impact—offering a myriad of opportunities for new interpretations of the punk\, new-wave\, and no-wave movements; performance art; drag; street art; public-access television; nightlife; LGBTQ activism; the AIDS epidemic; and urban gentrification. \nImage: Richard Hambleton\, Untitled (Leaping Shadowman)\, ca 2000 \nVisitation Guidelines

SUMMARY:Mike DeCapite’s Jacket Weather
DESCRIPTION:Publication Party and Reading \nJacket Weather is a tender love story that blossoms like a rose in the concrete of a city always on the verge. DeCapite’s effortless prose stirs echoes of certain New York School poets\, of ‘cold rosy dawn\,’ night streets illuminated by great bars and the music streaming out of them—the endless possibilities of a place where\, despite persistent evidence to the contrary\, ‘love is the heart of everything’. —Max Blagg\, author of Slow Dazzle and Loud Money\n \nHowl! Arts is pleased to present an afternoon with friend and colleague\, writer Mike DeCapite\, in honor of his highly praised first novel\, Jacket Weather published by Soft Skull Press. \nNick Hornby meets Patti Smith\, Mean Streets meets A Visit From the Goon Squad in this quintessential New York City story about two people who knew each other in the downtown music scene in the 1980s\, meet again in the present day\, and fall in love. \nMike knew June in New York’s downtown music scene in the eighties. Back then\, he thought she was “the living night—all the glamour and potential of a New York night when you’re 25.” Now he’s twice divorced and happy to be alone—so happy he’s writing a book about it. Then he meets June again. “And here she was with a raincoat over the back of the chair talking about getting a divorce and saying she’s done with relationships. Her ice-calm eyes are the same\, the same her glory of curls.” \nJacket Weather is about awakening to love—dizzying\, all-consuming\, worldview-shaking love—when it’s least expected. It’s also about remaining alert to today’s pleasures—exploring the city\, observing the seasons\, listening to the guys at the gym—while time is slipping away. Told in fragments of narrative\, reveries\, recipes\, bits of conversation and snatches of weather\, the book collapses a decade in Mike and June’s life and shifts a reader to a glowing nostalgia for the present. \nPoetic and compulsively readable\, Jacket Weather invents a new genre—call it lyrical realism. Mike DeCapite casts a cool but affectionate eye on New York in the 2010s\, as it lives on despite having become a replica of itself. Like Virginie Despentes’s Vernon Subutex\, Jacket Weather traces the lives of those who’ve stayed on after the party. It’s a love story improbably set at the beginning of late middle age\, and it’s also a story of cities\, survival\, adaptation\, desire\, and a celebration of the small pleasures we invent and discover to offset unavoidable loss. —Chris Kraus\, author of After Kathy Acker and Summer of Hate \nUnder the banner of Sparkle Street Books\, Mike DeCapite has published the novel Through the Windshield\, the chapbook Creamsicle Blue\, and the short-prose collection Radiant Fog. Cuz Editions published his story Sitting Pretty\, later anthologized in The Italian American Reader. DeCapite grew up in Cleveland\, lived in London and San Francisco\, and has spent most of his creative life in New York City\, where he now resides. \nJacket Weather is a beautiful\, evocative account of a late-in-life love sprung into being in early twenty-first-century Manhattan\, characters tossed forth from the aftermath of the punk rock seventies. Protagonist Mike spins cryptic\, poetic observations of his daily life\, strikes random and true chords\, pen as Telecaster. His plaintive adoration of June\, the love of his life\, is painted with enduring mystery and great respect. —Lee Ranaldo\, Sonic Youth\, author of Road Movies and JNRLS80s \n \n  \n  \n
