Personal Effects September 10 - October 23, 2011 Opening Reception September 10, 7-10 PM Closing Reception October 21, 7-10 PM with special performance by Irvin Morazan as part of the 10th annual Newark Open Doors Studio Tour Main Gallery Personal Effects is a sprawling exhibition presenting the idiosyncratic, street art based collection of photographer Eric Wolfe, and featuring works by more than 65 international artists including SWOON, Banksy, Shepard Fairey, Faile, Bast, Kara Walker, Brian Eno, Claes Oldenburg and Anna Gaskell. In 2004, Wolfe purchased a wheatpaste graphic mounted on wood from a high school student known as Gaia. In the following years, his collection grew rapidly, with works being purchased from galleries, at auction, or directly from the artists, sometimes using trade or barter. Many of the artists Wolfe became interested in were in the early stages of their gallery careers or were still relatively unknown outside of a small community. Wolfe's collecting impulses connect with his ongoing need to collect and preserve bits of ephemera from his own life as well as the detritus of strangers. Aligned with the burgeoning market for street art, Wolfe's modus operandi has led to the creation of a collection that eventually no longer fit under one roof. As the years passed, Wolfe's taste and purchases have evolved along with changes in his own life - a reflection of the deeply personal nature of this collection. While street art remains at its heart, other forms of contemporary art are well represented and thematic groupings crossing all genres and eras have developed, such as works inclusive of the F-word, rabbit imagery and a significant collection of Peter Norton Christmas gifts. A variety of mediums are also represented, including stencil, collage, painting, papercut, spray paint, screen printing and sculpture. >From Bushwick to Bristol and beyond, Personal Effects brings together Wolfe's >collection of over 100 pieces of artwork on simultaneous display for the first time.

Not content with trying to repair such mundane every day objects, I've also attempted to create 'scabs' for old wooden floors, plugging up the gouges that decades of use have wrought."

[NetBehaviour] N.K. Berlin: GHÉDALIA TAZARTÈS//CHRIS CORSANO & DENNIS TYFUS//DRACULA LEWIS
PAN presents: *N.K. Berlin - Tuesday, September 13**th** 2011* Doors 21.00 – Concert 22.00 sharp! *GHÉDALIA TAZARTÈS//CHRIS CORSANO & DENNIS TYFUS//DRACULA LEWIS* *Ghédalia Tazartès* French cult artist Ghédalia Tazartès is an uncompromising character who defies categorization. He recorded alone a dozen of albums, calling his way of working “Impromuz” for lack of a better term. His public appearances remain exceptional events. Ghédalia Tazartès’ music has always been a mystery. It switches from musique concrète to – existing or invented – ethnic music, from poetry to noise, or from loops and collages to sad and extremely beautiful tunes in a second, but it constantly is in flux and coherent. For this event he will do an exclusive performance of the “HAXAN” SOUNDTRACK (cinemix). Häxan is a documentary about the history of witchcraft, told in a variety of styles, from illustrated slideshow to dramatized events of alleged real-life events, right up to the early twentieth century (when the film was made, in 1922). Benjamin Christensen’s legendary film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the Middle Ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients. Tazartes’ shamanic voice and talent for incantation make for a unique and frightening experience. julietippex.com/blog/roster/ghedalia-tazartes/ *Chris Corsano & Dennis Tyfus* First spellbound by free improvised music in the mid '90s after witnessing performances by TEST, William Parker, Cecil Taylor and others, Corsano began a long-standing high-energy partnership with Paul Flaherty in 1998. A move from western Massachusetts, USA to the UK in 2005 led Corsano to develop an expanded solo percussion music of his own, incorporating sax reeds, violin strings and bows, pot lids, adhesive tape and other household devices into his drum kit. Moving back to the U.S. in 2009, he's returned to his own projects, most notably a duo with Michael Flower, Rangda (with Sir Richard Bishop and Ben Chasny) and his solo work, now revamped to include synthesizers and contact mics in addition to his drum kit and home-made acoustic instruments. He's also worked with, among others: Evan Parker & John Edwards, Jim O'Rourke, Paul Dunmall, Nels Cline, Jessica Rylan, Jandek, Sunburned Hand Of Man, MV&EE, Vampire Belt, Joe McPhee and Thurston Moore & Wally Shoup. At this event, Corsano pairs with another many-tendrilled talent in the form of Belgian maverick Dennis Tyfus. The visual artist, free noise purveyor and Ultra Eczema label boss Tyfus has his own unique approach to, well, everything. cor-sano.com, ultraeczema.com *Dracula Lewis* Dark, lo-fi aggressive electronics with weird field recordings but also a spacey melodic sound that came up from this maelström. Dracula Lewis is one of the best hidden secrets from Europe. He has spent a long time traveling all over the world and has also released records on No Fun Production (split w/ Ducktails) and his own Hundebiss Records. hundebiss.altervista.org *N.K.** *Elsenstr. 52 2.Hinterhaus Etage 2 12059 Berlin Neukölln Send an email 24hrs before the concert or call on the day of the show for ticket prices: i...@nkprojekt.de or 017620626386 www.nkprojekt.de www.pan-act.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
