In the early 1990s\, Linda Simpson hosted Channel 69\, a variety entertainment program which brought the East Village drag scene to public television. The series featured new and upcoming queens of the era\, including Flloyd’s special dedicated episodes\, where he presented his groundbreaking “Drag Trilogy.” \nWhile many of the performances featured on Channel 69 constituted of regular drag performance\, Flloyd’s “Drag Trilogy” marked a conceptual turn for the show\, and for Flloyd as an artist. Prior to 1990\, Flloyd performed as Felicia with his band The People Tree. Taking inspiration from RuPaul\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, and Lypsinka\, Felicia soon transformed into a more daring performer who would go on to make a greater impact in the East Village scene. \nFlloyd would go onto the develop the “Drag Trilogy” for Channel 69 the same year. The cycle is broken down in three 30-minute specials: “This You Won’t Believe\,” “Sex Clown\,” and “Facility Girl (A Tribute to National Secretary’s Day).” Each of the numbers bleed into each other conceptually\, innovating and expanding on performative elements first explored by artists like Lypsinka\, such as the inclusion of dialogue. Flloyd’s “Drag Trilogy” marks an outstanding breakthrough in drag history and for Flloyd as an artist. \nThe evening will open with Flloyd’s Wigstock Performance\, following a screening of the complete “Drag Trilogy\,” followed by a Q+A discussion with Flloyd and Linda Simpson to discuss the importance of these performances and their legacies within the community.

Happening\n \n \n \n\nIn an exhibition and series of events showcasing his entire career\, Howl! Happening is proud to present FLLOYD’s latest body of work: DICKS and DIVAS. Veering between the iconographic\, pornographic\, and other sensual worlds\, Flloyd unites his fundamental passions in one show. Unapologetic\, persistent\, and honest – Flloyd’s current work concerns itself with erotic desire\, the muse\, and modulation. Through a sequence wave of dots translated onto paper or canvas\, each shape functions as a codex to create the image. Undulating forms of abstraction assemble into objects of fascination\, beauty\, and power\, before dispersing once again into mystery. Each work can be enjoyed on the level of the image (the icon) and the level of the painting (the abstraction). \nThe exhibition continues through October 22nd and is highlighted by a series of events with special guests and screenings of his video and film work including The Channel 69 Triology hosted by Flloyd and Linda Simpson and a Premiere of his solo Performance\, Flock of Slits. (see complete list below) \nFlloyd is a performance artist\, filmmaker\, electronic music producer\, and painter. Known for his unique ability to portray horror\, beauty\, and humor in a single moment\, Flloyd is an inimitable presence and longstanding member of NYC’s Lower East Side and East Village art scenes. Among the likes of RuPaul and Lady Bunny\, Flloyd was an early establishing force from the influential Atlanta drag scene that planted its roots on the Pyramid stage. He has presented his groundbreaking performances at several iterations of Wigstock and is prominently featured in the feature-length Berry Shills 1995 production. He has acted and done performance art off-Broadway at La Mama\, the Kitchen\, P.S. 122\, Here\, and the Guggenheim. \nBetween 1992 and 1995\, Flloyd was a member of the Blacklips Performance Cult\, presenting original plays such as Death\, Tooth: A Disco Butoh\, Trouble with Blacklips\, and adapted for the stage\, Nashville and Jem and the Holograms. He has also directed many short films and released in 2002 his first feature film which is an adaptation of a Blacklips’ play Jack the Ripper. \n\nSPECIAL EVENTS \nSaturday\, September 23 / 6–8 PM\nFlloyd’s Channel 69 Trilogy: Hosted by Linda Simpson and Flloyd\nA special screening of Flloyd’s breakthrough drag performances of the 1990s\, followed by live commentary with Flloyd and Linda Simpson.

In a single evening showing the highlights of films and videos directed by Flloyd\, attendees will get a full view of Flloyd’s breadth and depth as a filmmaker. \nThe evening will begin with a summary of Flloyd’s short films and music videos\, including a short film titled “Field Day” (4 min\, 50 sec)\, music videos made for his band 3Puen\, music videos made with his band Flock of Slits\, the opening credits of Channel 69\, and selections from Flloyd’s own public access TV show Gay Action News. \nFollowing a short intermission\, the event will culminate in a screening of Flloyd’s feature length film\, Jack the Ripper. Directed between 1992 and 2002\, Flloyd directed and produced a film adaptation of Blacklips Performance Cult’s greatest plays\, Love Forever’s “Jack the Ripper.” Starring the cast of Blacklips\, this all-black-and-white feature follows the story of local sex workers living under the black cloud of a serial killer of women lurking the streets at night. One by one\, they are murdered in high stylized fashion by Jack (played by Flloyd). \nNever released and rarely screened\, Jack the Ripper remains a high mark in Flloyd’s prowess as a director and the entire cast of Blacklips\, who provide their singular talents in this historic drag film. \n  \nCANCELED \nSaturday\, October 14th / 6 PM\nFlloyd Presents: Flock of Slits: A Premiere Performance \n  \n  \nImage: Flloyd\, Sissy\, oil on canvas\, 2023.

Happening Saturday\, June 3rd from 3 – 6 PM for the closing reception for WALTER STEDING: This Is My Voice. Celebrate with an afternoon of music\, poetry\, and art including special guests Penny Arcade\, Linda Kleinbub\, Stewart Meyer\, Puma Perl\, Barbara Rosenthal\, and Jeffrey Cyphers Wright. \n  \nThere is an ethereal other-worldly characteristic inherent in the images like they are trying to tell the viewer a secret. —Emma Zakarevicius \n  \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n ►\n Explore 3D Space \n \n \n \n Walter Steding: This is My Voice\n \n \n \n\n  \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present an exhibition of portraits and allegorical paintings by Walter Steding that move beyond representation to hidden and poetic unseen worlds. An artist who has worked in many mediums— acting\, writing\, filmmaking\, music\, painting—his personal lexicon creates an alchemical mix projecting these works into a deeper\, more mystical realm.  \nSteding—who was Andy Warhol’s painting assistant and is a virtuosic violinist well known for developing his own electronic instruments and performing solo and with Blondie\, Jim Carroll\, David Byrne\, Chic\, Robert Fripp and Panther Burns—has been painting since he was 5 years old. \nHis portraits go beyond Realism. They fix you with an intense focus from a purely pictorial space\, floating in a neutral background that emphasizes all the more the essence of the sitter\, whether it be the Grand Prior of the Knights Templar\, the Golem\, a jester\, a family portrait\, or a dog\, \nCapturing the essence of his subjects\, he says he is concerned with the world of “non-being” that transmutes his sitters’ physiognomy into a virtual space of pure imagination. The simplicity and straightforward gaze\, reduces the critical “noise” representing external reality and the viewer can experience these people and creatures\, as through an abstract lens of shapes\, colors\, and forms. \nIn his painting\, The Fall of Boaz\, the two pillars of Solomon’s Temple crash and burn in the background while a cast of characters and symbols create a tableau upfront that fuses his esoteric knowledge and understanding of art history. His straightforward manner allows one to by-pass the actual image and artistic style and inhabit the allegorical space of his imaginative world. \nLike an old master painting\, Storming the Capital is all metaphor and stylized emotion and relies on the observers’ interpretations of the meaning that Steding sets forth. Clearly emotional in tone\, it insists on a deeper spiritual meaning portraying issues of life\, death\, love\, virtue\, and justice.  \nIn an interview with Brainard Carey on Yale’s WYBC radio\, Steding calls himself a “recording artist\,” a description that draws upon threads of creativity woven of color and sound. “Both art and music use “harmony\,” says this the multi-talented creator\, “and the vibrations of color and sound permeate and transmute each other.”  \nLike many of the artists and people of the Lower East Side\, Steding’s generation continues to create\, “[We] have something to say about our culture\, our time\, and what’s happening today\,” he says. “There is a chance that art and music can have a voice and here is my voice.” \n  \nImage: Walter Steding “Storming The Capitol”\, Oil on Canvas.

Over the next decade\, he would paint over 100 whole subway cars throughout the MTA system\, to then shift to a studio-based practice. Lee was instrumental in moving street art above the ground when he created the first handball-court mural in 1978. He has presented numerous solo shows and exhibited internationally; his first exhibition was at Galleria La Medusa\, Rome\, in 1979. \n Charlie Ahearn has been involved in hip hop since the late 70s with his Super-8 kung-fu movie The Deadly Art of Survival.

George Ibanez\, as “Crime79\,” explores his path dodging the tough streets of Brooklyn East New York his climb as a pioneering subway painter\, to gallery artist and 40 years in the creative world. With many never before published photos\, the artist explains stories and anecdotes of his evolution of painting New York City subways to the body of work on canvas that are held in art collections worldwide. \nIn My Creative Journey\, Ibañez unveils yet another piece of the missing puzzle of the fragmented story and history of graffiti. It reveals an emerging creative subculture\, which grew from a bunch of kids living a Tom Sawyeresque life of creativity and adventure in the streets of New York City\, to helping create one of the most influential art movements of all time. \n\nGeorge “Crime79” Ibañez (b. New York\, New York December 31\, 1964) The ​New York City-based artist began painting graffiti in the New York subways at age 13 in the East New York section of Brooklyn.

From 1977 to 1984\, Crime79 painted numerous notable subway cars. A whole train with a memorable painted poem appears as the opening page to the “Graffiti Bible\,” Subway Art by Martha Cooper and Henry Chalfant. Crime79 was a member of a group called “Soul Artists” who were among the first to transition graffiti art from subways to legitimate galleries. Crime79’s first show of paintings was at the Rainbow Gallery in New York City’s SoHo District in 1983. His works were regarded as\, “simply the best pieces in the show” (ArtSpeak Magazine\, Volume V\, June 1983). In 2009 two of his paintings were sold at the prestigious Millon & Associés Auction House in Paris\, France. \nToday he continues to exhibit in various gallery shows worldwide and owns and operates his own Graphics /Printing company. \nVisit crime79.com URL:https://www.howlarts.org/event/book-signing-george-crime79-ibanez-my-creative-journey/ LOCATION:Howl!

Happening is pleased to host Performances and Readings in celebration of the publication of Pathetic Literature\, edited by Eileen Myles. \nFriday\, December 2: \nJoe Westmoreland\, Charles Atlas\, Joan Larkin\, Precious Okoyomon\, Lynne Tillman\, Samuel Delany (video appearance)\, Johanna Fateman\, Sini Anderson\, Nayland Blake\, Moyra Davey\, Eliza Douglas\, Fred Moten\, Tom Cole\, Eileen Myles. \nSaturday\, December 3:  \nLaura Henriksen\, Morgan Vo\, Randy Danson\, Nicole Wallace\, Jack Halberstam\, Tom Carey\, Samuel Delany (video appearance)\, Andrea Abi-Karam\, The Cyborg Jillian Weise (video appearance)\, Felix Bernstein Pati Hertling\, Ama Birch\, Kyle Dacuyan\, Tom Cole\, Eileen Myles. \n“Literature is pathetic.” So claims Eileen Myles in their bold and bracing introduction to Pathetic Literature\, an exuberant collection of pieces ranging from poetry to drama to prose to something in-between\, all of which explore those so-called “pathetic” or sensitive feelings around which lives are built and revolutions are incited.  \nMyles first reclaimed the word for the title of a seminar they taught at University of California San Diego\, rescuing it from the derision into which it had slipped\, and restoring its original meaning of inspiring emotion or feeling\, from the ancient Greek rhetorical method pathos. Their reinvention of “pathetic” forms the bedrock for this anthology\, which includes a hearty 106 contributors\, encompassing titans of global literature like Robert Walser\, Jorge Luis Borges\, Rumi\, and Gwendolyn Brooks; queer icons and revolutionaries like Dodie Bellamy\, Samuel Delany\, and Bob Flanagan; as well as the invigorating newness and excitement of writers on the rise\, including Nicole Wallace\, Precious Okoyomon\, Will Farris\, and Tom Cole. Creative nonfiction by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio\, Jack Halberstam\, and Porochista Khakpour rub shoulders with poetry by Natalie Diaz\, Victoria Chang\, Lucille Clifton\, and Ariana Reines. Joined by prose from Chester Himes\, Djuna Barnes\, Chris Kraus\, and Qiu Miaojin\, among so many others\, the result is a matchless anthology that is as much an ongoing dialogue as an essential compendium of queer\, revolutionary\, joyful\, and always moving literature. \nFrom confrontations with suffering\, embarrassment\, and disquiet to the comforts and consolations of finding one’s familiar double in a poem\, Pathetic Literature is a swarming taxonomy of ways to think differently and live pathetically on a polarized and fearful planet. \nThe book cover is graced by Nicole Eisenman’s painting that depicts the fervent pleading of a cat directed toward a querulous\, madly colored world (ours?!). Pathetic Literature is published by Grove Atlantic. Publication date: November 15\, 2022 \n\nAbout Eileen Myles and Tom Cole \nEileen Myles (they/them\, b. 1949) is a poet\, novelist\, and art journalist whose vernacular practice of mostly first-person writing has become a touchstone for the identity-fluid internet age. They are the editor of Pathetic Literature and live in New York City and Marfa\, TX.  \n  \n  \n  \n \nTom Cole is a writer and artist living in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.

From its origins in the late 1960s through today\, the story of street art and graffiti in New York City is still being told. Creating a rich\, visual contextualization of that history\, Howl! Happening is pleased to present CITY OF KINGS – an exhibition tracing the historical chronology of graffiti’s emergence as an art form and elevating the under-recognized artists and other players who pushed the medium forward. The exhibition is held in two parts\, the first at Howl! Happening and the second at Howl! Arts/Howl! Archive (HA/HA). \nCurated by first-generation graffiti artist Al Díaz (who worked under the name Bomb One before partnering with Jean-Michel Basquiat to create the SAMO©… tag) with additional curation from graffiti archivist and artist  Eric ‘DEAL CIA’ Felisbret and art educator Mariah Fox\, the exhibition features stories\, photos\, ephemera\, videos\, documentaries\, and the accounts of historical experiences\, many of which are previously unseen. \nGrounded in personal narratives from the inventors\, participants\, and innovators who shaped graffiti culture over the last five-and-a-half decades\, this exhibition highlights untold stories and lesser-known artists who contributed to graffiti’s emergence and spread across New York City’s five boroughs. At the heart of the exhibition is a timeline that offers a visual representation of how and where graffiti evolved\, to indicate the flow of ideas and inspiration among artists and groups. The timeline also contextualizes the graffiti movement by referencing key historical events\, such as the Son of Sam murders\, street-gang activity\, the financial decline of New York City\, and efforts to “clean up” the city. \nThe chronological display creates a framework to help explain how graffiti has become so lodged and influential within our present popular culture. What makes this exhibit particularly unique is that the narrative is told through the lens\, and voice of the actual players who created graffiti. An accessible\, concise\, clear account for the general public is long overdue in New York City\, the “birthplace of graffiti culture.” \n– Al Díaz\, NYC. August 2022 \nIn total\, the exhibition features the contributions of dozens of graffiti artists\, world-renowned photographers\, collectors and archivists. The exhibition includes photographs\, video\, and audio recordings — some of which come from personal archives. Public programs and a series of panel discussions will hone in on themes and periods that evolved across time; touching on topics such as the movement’s roots\, the evolution of graffiti styles and social and cultural practices. \nCITY OF KINGS includes contributions from artists and historians including CoCo 144\, Taki 183\, Crash\, LEE\, Jay Edlin\, Charlie Ahearn\, FLINT\, Carlo McCormick\, and Martha Cooper.

Included are never-before-seen images and artifacts documenting a revolutionary and seminal period in gay history. In conjunction with the exhibit\, a brand-new issue of My Comrade will be published\, the first in 16 years. \nMy Comrade magazine was founded by drag queen Linda Simpson in 1987 during the dark era of the AIDS crisis and served as a symbol of hope and frivolity to the East Village gay scene and beyond. Armed with a tongue-in-cheek “revolutionary” agenda\, the magazine glorified heroic drag queens and sexy guys in a cut-and-paste mishmash of articles and photo spreads. Lesbians got their due when the flip side became Sister! The sporadic publishing schedule produced a total of eleven issues until 1994. It was revived in 2004 for two more. \nThe exhibit features reproductions and enlargements of My Comrade’s black-and-white pages. Notable contributors to the magazine included photographers Jack Pierson and David Armstrong\, painter Stephen Tashjian a.k.a. Tabboo!\, and drag stars RuPaul and Lady Bunny. The exhibit also features Simpson’s color photos of the era from her acclaimed 2021 photo book\, The Drag Explosion\, published by Domain.  \nThe Drag Explosion by drag artist Linda Simpson is a first-hand account of a very creative and vital moment in queer life from the 1980s to the early ’90s\, in which activism\, nightlife\, a D.Y.I. approach to drag\, and pre-Giuliani New York culture crash into each other\, creating a vibrant chapter in queer history. Mining her collection of snapshots from adventures with fellow drag queens\, Club Kids\, models\, performance artists\, and aspiring celebutantes\, Simpson creates a wonderful and vivid chronicle of a bright time that has since passed.  —Peter Piatkowski\, popmatters.com\, March 2021 \nSince the 1980s\, Linda has worked as a nightlife personality\, writer and game-show host. Her photos of NYC’s drag scene of the 1980s and ‘90s have been featured in books\, magazines\, exhibits and documentaries\, as well as her own touring slideshow. \nMy Comrade’s importance as a piece of gay history was made apparent in 2021 when it was acquired by Harvard for its Houghton Library\, which specializes in literary and performing arts archives. \nRead My Comrade: the revolutionary zine that transformed the New York drag scene In DAZED \nImage: Linda Simpson\, Hapi Phace with George and Adam\, Color Photograph\, 1988.

Happening is pleased to present an evening celebrating the release of Alan Moore’s Art Worker: Doing Time in the NY Artworld\, a memoir that casts a raking light on a classic period in cultural history—the 70s and 80s in downtown Manhattan. Confirmed participants in the panel discussion: Marc H. Miller\, Yasmin Ramirez\, Leonard Abrams\, Alan W. Moore\, Stephen Zacks. Published this year by Journal of Aesthetics & Protest Press\, books will be on sale at the event. \nThe New York City artworld of the late 20th century seems far more fluid and changeable\, with many more positions for its different actors to inhabit than the artworld of today. The market rules in all spheres of image-making\, enforced by super-high valuations of traditional artwork\, and global social media and streaming platforms. \nFrom art critic and video artist to radical organizer and academic\, Moore played multiple roles in a seething scene of art galleries\, nightclubs\, and small publications. Written in an accessible style\, Art Worker is in three parts\, with characters\, anecdotes\, footnotes\, and an extensive bibliography. It’s a book by a scholar written for a general audience. \nAbout the Participants \nAlan W. Moore worked as a critic\, artist\, and organizer in NYC for 30 years. He worked with the artists’ group Colab\, and co-directed ABC No Rio and the MWF Video Club. He took a PhD in Art History from CUNY in 2000\, and published Art Gangs in 2011.

Happening through May 29\, and also celebrating the recent publication of Rupp’s monograph\, Noisy Autumn\, published by Insight Editions. The book’s title pays homage to Rachael Carson’s groundbreaking book Silent Spring upon its 60th anniversary. Six decades after the publication of Silent Spring\, chemical companies still maintain a website venting their anger at the journalist who would point out that 90% of all insects are beneficial. Special guest Bob Holman will join Rupp and McCormick\, reading new poems inspired by the events in Ukraine and Buffalo\, New York. \nIn the exhibition Othered\, Rupp investigates topics including resource extraction and water pollution through the lens of Discard Studies\, a discipline that examines the wider role of society and culture\, social norms\, and power on the waste stream. Embodying irony and resilience\, her sculpture of fish\, mammals\, and micro-organisms made from single use plastic and bits of industrial debris expresses the voices of invisible microbes and species caught in the crosshairs. Rupp has long explored how we form our opinions of nature and the role of art in helping us understand climate chaos. \n Using wall-scale collage\, “she juxtaposes scenes of nature and industrial development with biological specimens and nature-based patterns that are stylized\, tamed and made decorative for human consumption\,” says art critic Eleanor Heartney in a recent catalog. \n\nAbout Christy Rupp \nChristy Rupp is an American eco-artist and citizen scientist. Born in the Rust Belt of Upstate New York\, she was too young for Elvis and too old for Barbie. For the past five decades\, Rupp has continued the search for clues that might explain how we have arrived at the edge of the Extractocene\, a world permanently altered by the presence of Homo sapiens. \nRupp was part of the artist collective Collaborative Projects (Colab)—organizer of the historic Times Square Show—as well as ABC No Rio and other East Village-era artist groups. \nShe has received grants from Anonymous was a Woman Foundation\, Joan Mitchell Foundation CALL Award\, National Endowment for the Arts\, New York State Council on the Arts\, and Art Matters Inc. Her work has been recently shown at the Schunck Museum in Heerlen\, Netherlands; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York; Zimmerli Art Museum; and ABC No Rio in Exile.She has just launched a career survey\, Noisy Autumn: Sculpture and Works on Paper\, published by Insight Editions. \nAbout Carlo McCormick \nCarlo McCormick is an American culture critic and curator living in New York City.

Happening is pleased to present Margaret Randall\, a longtime friend of the gallery and revered feminist poet\, essayist\, translator\, photographer\, and social activist. Coming from her home in Albuquerque to New York\, we are excited to host her in celebration of her two new books–Artists in My Life and Risking a Somersault in the Air\, both published by New Village Press. \nArtists in My Life is a collection of intimate and conversational accounts of the visual artists that have impacted the renowned poet activist Margaret Randall on her own journey as an artist. Randall writes of each relationship through multiple lenses: as makers of art\, social commentators\, women in a world dominated by male values\, and in solitude or collaboration with communities and the larger artistic arena. Each story offers insight into the artist’s life and work and analyses the impact it had on Randall’s own work and its impact on the larger art community. The work strives to answer bigger questions about visual art as a whole and its lasting political influence on the world stage. \nAmong those playing major roles in the 1979 Nicaraguan revolution were many of the nation’s leading poets and writers. First published in 1983\, Risking a Somersault in the Air is a collection of interviews with fourteen of Nicaragua’s most important writers/revolutionaries. Filling in the gaps with new photographs and updates on the writers in the time since the original edition\, the book looks at the sacrifices\, conflicts\, and solutions of the creative artists of Nicaragua’s revolution. \nAbout Margaret Randall \nMargaret Randall is a feminist poet\, essayist\, translator\, photographer\, and social activist. A New York native\, she lived among the city’s abstract expressionists in the 1950s\, Mexico in the ‘60s\, Cuba in the ‘70s\, and Nicaragua in the ‘80s. She returned to the US in 1984 only to fight deportation due to the controversial content of her books. She is the founder and former editor of the bilingual literary journal El Corno Emplumado / The Plumed Horn\, which started an iconic bridge between cultures in the 1960s. She has more than 150 published books in several genres. \n  URL:https://www.howlarts.org/event/margaret-randallreading-and-book-signing/ LOCATION:Howl!

Happening is pleased to present the world premiere screening of A Wolf Inside: Natives\, Nuyoricans\, and the Beats\, a documentary film by Sandra Hale Schulman and Damian Rojo featuring the Native American poet Diane Burns\, Joy Harjo\, Allen Ginsberg\, Bob Holman\, Pedro Pietri. A panel discussion with poets Bob Holman of Bowery Poetry and Chavisa Woods\, executive director of A Gathering of the Tribes follows the screening. \nIn the mid-1980s\, Native poet Diane Burns\, whose searing words cut through the noise of the Santa Fe reservations and New York City’s Lower East Side\, took a once in a lifetime trip to Nicaragua with the Father of the Beats\, Allen Ginsberg. \nOrganized by Bob Holman of the Bowery Poetry\, a group of indigenous poets joined them\, including future Poet Laureate of the U.S. Joy Harjo\, and Nuyorican Poets Café member Pedro Pietri. \nDeep in the heart of the jungle\, it was a rollicking event filled with love\, poetry\, revolution\, and the search for identity in a time of radical changes in the Americas. \nWith narration by award-winning musician and Navajo activist Jeneda Benally\, interviews and performances from Diane Burns\, Allen Ginsberg\, Bob Holman\, and Joy Harjo; and never before seen archival photos from Joy Harjo\, Ilka Hartmann and Patrick Warner. \nBurns (Chemehuevi and Anishinabe) is currently featured in Greater New York at MoMA PS1. “A 1989 video of poet Diane Burns reciting a punk poem on the Lower East Side crackles with humor around Indigenous politics\, gentrification and displacement” says Marth Schwendener in her New York Times review of the show. Stills from the film debuted in the exhibit. \nA Gathering of the Tribes\, the poetry salon Burns was an original member of\, is currently featured in the Whitney Biennial “Quiet as its Kept.”  \nAs understanding of Native Americans in the arts deepens\, and the legacy of the Beat Poets is celebrated\, this archival documentary tells the story of what happened when those cultures clashed and sparked a revolution with poetry at its center. \n\nAbout Sandra Hale Schulman and Damian Rojo \nSandra Hale Schulman is an author of four books\, has contributed to shows at the Museum of Modern Art\, Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian\, The Grammy Museum\, The Queens Museum\, and has produced four films on Native musicians. Her work has appeared in Billboard\, Variety\, Rolling Stone\, The New York Daily News\, and Entertainment Weekly.

We also live in the waste stream. Garbage is a combat zone where our desire for comfort and function meets the limits of our nest. —Christy Rupp \nPlastic—as both form and content—has figured prominently in her art… It serves as a perfect signifier for the conceptual underpinnings of her work\, its pointed critique\, and subversive humor. —Nina Felshin\, Noisy Autumn: Sculpture and Works on Paper\, 2021 \nHowl! Happening is pleased to present Othered\, a new installation integrating images and objects by artist\, activist\, and thought-leader Christy Rupp. The conceptual underpinnings of her long career have consistently called attention to our interconnectedness with non-humans and habitat—transmuting urban detritus through collage\, sculpture\, public art\, and activism to reveal what is hidden away from common view and understanding. A monograph on Rupp’s work\, Noisy Autumn: Sculpture and Works on Paper\, with essays by Lucy Lippard\, Nina Felshin\, Amy Lipton\, and Carlo McCormick\, and poetry by Bob Holman\, was published in 2021 by Insight Editions. \nAs artists rummaged through the remnants of a crumbling city in the mid 1970s\, Rupp developed an interest in urban ecology\, noting that the city is an ecosystem with a delicate balance. Transforming that discovery\, she created work at the intersection of performance and site\, joining a stream of artists breaching the boundaries of the gallery system’s white box.  \nSubversive and prescient\, her early intervention into the landscape during New York City’s garbage strike of 1979—when swarms of rats became the symbol of urban decay—“was a seminal episode in the emergence of street art and a paradigm of what urban art can tell us\,” says writer Carlo McCormick. “But as much as the deluge of rubbish and rat attack may have constituted the kind of sensationalist scandal this town has always trafficked in\, this was very much Rupp’s point—that rats\, like the humans whose filth they have long thrived in\, are denizens of the city\, neither good nor evil\, they simply are.” Her work is less concerned with representation of animals than with the framing of our attitudes toward habitat\, and how we construct our opinions of nature. \nIn Othered\, Rupp investigates topics including climate chaos\, the industrialization of our food supply\, and water pollution through the lens of Discard Studies\, a discipline that examines the wider role of society and culture\, social norms\, and power on the waste stream. Her sculptures of birds\, fish\, mammals\, and microorganisms made from plastic\, commercial packaging\, credit cards\, and bits of industrial debris manifest the voices of invisible microbes and species long displaced. Using wall-scale collage\, “she juxtaposes scenes of nature and industrial development with biological specimens and nature-based patterns that are stylized\, tamed\, and made decorative for human consumption\,” says art critic Eleanor Heartney in a recent catalog.  \nLong before the climate crisis confronting us all was headline news\, her work was “galvanized by climate chaos and other ecological nightmares\,” says critic Lucy Lippard\, “and she pioneered a down-to-earth urban eco art at a time when ecology was understood as politically peripheral and nostalgically wilderness-oriented.”  \nFor Rupp\, the materiality of the work—plastic debris and other recycled examples of our rampant consumerism—is “both the medium and the message\,” and the subject of her practice points to issues that are current here and now. It is through the artist’s imagination that these timely topics come to life. As independent curator Amy Lipton says in Noisy Autumn\, “Few can match the wit\, irreverence and impeccable skills of Christy Rupp. Play between the poetic and the real requires a hard-sought balance that Rupp strives for and understands as necessary for taking on some of the most challenging issues of our time.” \nAbout Christy Rupp \nChristy Rupp is an American eco-artist and citizen scientist. Born in the Rust Belt of Upstate New York\, she was too young for Elvis and too old for Barbie. For the past five decades Rupp has continued the search for clues that might explain how we have arrived at the edge of the Extractocene\, a world permanently altered by the presence of Homo sapiens.  \nRupp was part of the artist collective Collaborative Projects (Colab)—organizer of the historic Times Square Show—as well as ABC No Rio and other East Village-era artist groups.  \nShe has received grants from Anonymous was a Woman Foundation\, Joan Mitchell Foundation CALL Award\, National Endowment for the Arts\, New York State Council on the Arts\, and Art Matters Inc. Her work has been recently shown at the Schunck Museum in Heerlen\, Netherlands; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York; Zimmerli Art Museum; and ABC No Rio in Exile.She has just launched a career survey\, Noisy Autumn: Sculpture and Works on Paper\, published by Insight Editions.

The component parts reference the beauty and unpredictability of nature and reflect Cooper’s diverse influences\, from art and cultural history to biology\, architecture\, and cross-cultural exchange. \nThe biomorphic wooden sculptural forms suggest curio cabinets gone wild. The same shapes and images reappear in the quirky ceramic vessels and figures\, and in the paintings and rice-paper relief forms on the wall that incorporate photographic and printed imagery tucked into their many layers. Considering this riot of shapes and colors and materials in relationship to each other\, the notion of a singular genius moment is called into question\, and the viewer experiences a series of moments and events that form the foundation for bringing new ideas to the conversation and questioning the hierarchy of value. \n“I am interested in the conversation between the parts serving as triggers for individual viewer associations rather than presenting a linear narrative\,” says Cooper. “My work is based on collaboration and the idea that ‘the whole is greater than the sum of its parts’—using collage\, assemblage\, and installation as a metaphor for working together in a complex world.” \nIn creating the individual components in collaboration with others and in collaboration with the materials themselves—responding to how they bend and fold—unexpected outcomes arise in the same way that bringing individuals from different disciplines together can lead to solutions beyond one specific approach. \n“It is like an improvisational jazz piece\,” says Cate McQuaid\, writing in the Boston Globe. The conceptual framework brings individual voices together and references cultures and philosophies that allude to unbounded possibilities\, joy\, and love. A place of wonder and humanity\, the installation is a reminder for all of us to be our best selves and to work together to heal our planet.   \nCooper is an internationally recognized artist known for large-scale and site-specific installations and public commissions. His commissions include works for the Boston Children’s Hospital\, Boston Medical Center\, and Massachusetts Cultural Council; he has received a Gund Grant\, Daynard Grant\, and an Open Society Fellowship. In July 2020\, Cooper completed three permanent large-scale marble sculptures for the Da Nang Fine Arts Museum in Vietnam. In 2006\, he authored Making Art Together through Beacon Press. \nCooper’s major exhibitions include shows at the Vietnam National Fine Arts Museum; Vietnam University of Fine Arts; Da Nang Fine Arts Museum; Rough Point Museum—Doris Duke Mansion; Yuandian Art Museum; Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art\, Kansas City; Lesley University\, Cambridge\, MA; Street Museum\, Seoul\, Korea; Whitney Museum at Philip Morris; Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston; ICA Boston; Corcoran Gallery of Art; The Butler Institute of American Art; Peabody Essex Museum; DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum; City Museum of Paris; and WestLicht Museum\, Vienna. The artist has had more than 100 solo and group shows combined. \nVisitation Guidelines \n  URL:https://www.howlarts.org/event/mark-cooper-unbounded-angels-in-the-nursery/ LOCATION:Howl!

This feels especially true of her portraits\, which loom large enough to engulf the viewer in the formal contortions of their often-nude subjects. —Tom Breidenbach \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n ►\n Explore 3D Space \n \n \n \n Helen Oliver: The Open Road\n \n \n \n\nHowl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project is pleased to present The Open Road\, a newly curated exhibition of paintings by Helen Oliver that takes off from her show which was cut short in 2019 by the pandemic. Known for her large-scale\, vivid portraits and nudes\, she delves below the surface of her subjects to uncover inner mysteries\, emotions\, and tensions.  \nThe expressivity of Oliver’s paintings might appear to be part of a long tradition of psychological portraiture—from that of Otto Dix to Alice Neel. There is a humanistic quality to Oliver’s endeavor that she shares with those artists. There is\, however\, a consistent ambiguity in her work. . . This singularity might best be observed in Oliver’s nude portraits. —David Ebony \nOn view will be a selection of portraits and intimate nudes that combine her eccentric\, gestural line with the deeply felt presence of the sitter to create “images [that] vacillate between the hallucinatory\, bordering on Surrealism\, and a raw pragmatic quality that makes them appear utterly truthful\,” says Ebony. Oliver’s blithe\, bohemian character imbues her paintings with an imaginative inner narrative\, and style that goes beyond any affiliations to contemporary art trends\, schools\, or movements. An air of whimsy permeates the portrait of her brother Edgar as harlequin\, while languid nudes stare frankly at the viewer.  \nSince the late 70s\, Helen Oliver has been an integral part of the artistic and performance-art scene of the Lower East Side\, tapping into the personalities of the vanguard and rendering oil paintings of artists\, musicians\, filmmakers\, and writers including Penny Arcade\, Lenny Kaye\, Mary Lou Wittmer\, Louie Cartwright\, Kembra Pfahler\, Samoa\, and Brian Damage. She is also well known for her stage-set design\, especially for her brother Edgar Oliver’s plays\, many of which premiered at La MaMa. \nShe was a founder of Pompeii Gallery on 10th Street (and later Forsyth Street) in New York City in the mid 80s. She has exhibited in New York\, Paris\, and Lucerne\, and has painted three rooms at the Carlton Arms Hotel. Originally from Savannah\, Georgia\, she moved to New York City in the late 70s after studying in Paris and receiving a B.A. from The George Washington University in Washington\, D.C. She now divides her time between New York and Tarquinia\, Italy\, where she makes her home. URL:https://www.howlarts.org/event/helen-oliver-the-open-road/ LOCATION:Howl!

Happening and White Columns are pleased to co-host Gay Green\, a performance by David Mramor. The event is organized in conjunction with Mramor’s new illustrated memoir Rainbow Lilies Gangrene Blues and his solo exhibition curated by Jeanette Mundt\, on view at White Columns from October 30 through December 18\, 2021. \nGay Green is the latest performance featuring Enid Ellen\, artist David Mramor’s ongoing persona and musical project. Enid was born out of private performances from the artist’s childhood\, which first took place in their mother’s closet\, eventually with her as their audience. \nFollowing his mother’s death\, Mramor continued performing in drag\, often with the makeup and clothing she left behind—discovering a way to recreate the freeing\, compassionate space she provided in his youth. For Gay Green\, Mramor steps into Enid\, performing covers and original songs that bring together different time periods and people within queer history. With green makeup evocative of a wicked witch\, and references to Hibiscus—the legendary founder of early-70s San Francisco drag-queen troupe The Cockettes—the performance pays homage to cinema\, fashion\, nature\, and gay icons\, with nostalgic nods to Mramor’s personal history and the history of drag. \nCollaborating with Greg Potter on keyboards\, Mramor writes original songs under the Enid Ellen guise—a post-gender feminist singer-songwriter. With a background in theater\, the artist’s performances include singing\, movement\, improvisation\, and Kundalini yoga elements. \nSupport for this program is kindly provided by Sotheby’s. \n\nPhoto by Shann Treadwell\nAbout David Mramor\nDavid Mramor lives and works in New York City. He received a BFA from Ohio University in 2006 and an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in 2008\, and was a Studio Immersion Project Fellow at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop in 2019.
