Natalie Kates kindly invited Eve & I to an open house at Swoon's studio in Red Hook. Eve didn't want to go at first but once there she got stuck in, and I couldn't drag her away.
Photo op with Swoon as we were about to leave.
1st is daughter at home.
2nd is a bronze sculpture at Art Basel.
Too minimal for some of what felt like 5,000 packed into MANA but for me, perfect! Wonderfully refreshing in this age of EDM with it's hyper sensory overload sound & visual production. This just shows what real talent can do. I don't think the BPM's went over 110 the whole night, and screwed down to about 70 at times. Less IS more.
The scale KAWS is now working in is almost beyond comprehension. The first photo with Max in is from Mary Boone gallery on 24th St, and the two below with Eve in are from Galerie Perrotin on 73rd & Madison.
Two words - Fucking stunning!
"Punk Magazine Mutant Monster Beach Party"
Great exhibition. Especially for anyone's interested in history and origins on NY's Punk scene.
My main motivation for going was to meet, and thank the awesome John Holmstrom, who'd been so generous with his words, letting me include them in my book.
Below are just a couple of images from the hundreds on display. All of which are about to leave for the archival volts of Yale University, so dont sleep!
Oct 11th - 25th Boo-Hooray Gallery, 265 Canal Street, New York, NY
John and the unstoppable Carlo McCormick (Also introduction writer in my book)
Normally I post about art or music that's inspired me.
Tonight those two subjects came crashing together for two wonderful hours of live music synchronized to film.
I don't have the vocabulary to describe what an immersive and goose-bump producing experience it was.
Not having been able to see Massive Attack live since I threw an illegal party with them at an abandoned cinema on Bleecker Street in 1994, this was really a thill!

While it was cool, and the crowd seamed most excited by Elisabeth Fraser singing many of the covers that the show was made up from, my actual favorites were the renditions of "Just Like Honey" by Jesus & Mary Chain & "Bela Lugosi's Dead" by Bauhaus!
New York Times called it "a documentary collage about the erosion of heroism, optimism and dissent"
The trailer for the show gives a little of the vibe.
