Cultural Stimuli in NYC
Issue 277: reactive flavor
Although the government response to Hurricane Rita over the weekend was infinitely more coordinated than with Katrina, the need for disaster relief funds in the Gulf is rocketing just the same. You can help by contributing to Second Harvest's Hurricane Relief Fund (for Katrina and Rita), or by attending one of this week's benefits: Southern Comfort featuring Derrick Carter and Operation Elevation with a classic NYC house crew. On more local shores, Robert Smithson's Floating Island (profiled here) gets its comeuppance with some floating competition; the Across the Narrows festival sees the Pixies, Beck, Oasis, and many more face off from opposite islands; the multimedia gurus at MonkeyTown finally announce their grand opening on October 1st with a Tracy + the Plastics concert; and more than 150 big-name authors hunker down in Central Park on Sunday for the Great Read. Our copious cultural resources await appreciation as the Film-Maker's Cooperative puts on a once-in-a-lifetime event, Fredericks Freiser Gallery launches a new space, Paul Krugman assesses the economy, and DJ Radar premieres his Concerto for Turntable. Let's stick together, and spread it...

Sharing the drive to experiment and create art using the tools of modernity, downtown composers and avant-garde film makers are natural allies. Tonight, revered veterans from both contingencies join forces to support the storied collective
conservator and distributor of this century's greatest experimental films,
the Film-Makers' Cooperative. Highlights include Philip Glass playing solo
piano to Harry Smith's Early Abstractions (1948) and the Steve Reich
Ensemble performing "Drumming, Pt. 1" with a projector performance by Ken
Jacobs. An avant-troika composed of Tim Barnes, Alan Licht, and Lee Ranaldo also provides a live score for shorts that span the modern history of
experimental film. (AD)

Robots presents Ellen Allien w/ Audion (Matthew Dear)
|
|
Hot on the heels of some Teutonic love courtesy of Isolée, New Yorkers can say "thanks, may we have another?" to this pair of techno minimalists who aren't afraid to super-size things for the dance floor. Bewitching Bpitch Control label boss Ellen Allien wants it both ways: while her latest album, Thrills, is an icy blast of spacious, dark electro, her live sets build heat like a pressure cooker, thanks to fierce, eclectic selections. Under his Audion alias, domestic wunderkind Matthew Dear forsakes his usually exquisite productions for rough, bruising techno — track titles such as "Your Place or Mine" and "Just Fucking" off his new LP Suckfish only hint at the analog pummeling he has in mind for tonight.

Given its Tennessee setting, music industry focus, and quasi-documentary
style, Ira Sachs' Sundance Grand Jury prizewinner Forty Shades of
Blue naturally conjures comparisons to Robert Altman's Nashville.
Yet, in contrast to Altman's improvised ranginess, Sachs cultivates an
intimate watchfulness as this queasy family portrait unfolds between a
blustering music producer who's entering his dotage (Rip Torn), his young
Russian wife (Dina Korzun), and his estranged son (Darren Burrows, best
known as Ed from Northern Exposure). The film commences with an
unnerving stillness, embodied by the gawky poise of Laura, who proves to be
far more than just a trophy bride. Battered about by this pair of egocentric
men, she becomes increasingly unmoored. But once set adrift, Laura realizes the ineluctability of her immigrant status: that she has nowhere else to go. (JKG)

If you think of the art world as an airline, then Fredericks Freiser
just got a first class upgrade. One of the original mid-'90s Chelsea galleries, it became a landing pad for artists like Marilyn Minter, Robert Overby, and John Wesley, and an equally important runway for emerging talent. It's moved two blocks uptown and now spreads like an airplane hangar across two rooms designed by gallery makeover artist Andrew Ong. The new space opens with a show of Zak Smith's Klimt-like interior scenes and his sinewy, wan portraits of disheveled 20-somethings in mixed media on paper — some literally drawn from the pages of Thomas Pynchon's epic novel Gravity's Rainbow.

Andrew Wyeth's iconic painting Christina's World depicts Christina
Olson, a young woman paralyzed from the waist down, crawling through a
field. Choreographer Tamar Rogoff was inspired not only by the 1948 artwork,
but also by Christina's will — she did house chores and even traversed
a gravel road to visit friends without a wheelchair. In this piece, created
for dancer-turned-actor Claire Danes, Rogoff explores the association
between spirit and physicality through her body-centric methodology. Danes
dances in front of a video of herself crawling down an East Village street
as an eerie homage to Olson, or an attempt to prove her earnestness in
returning to her dance roots. (SP)

Best known for her LED screens displaying scrolling summary quotes from

she illuminates plaintive poetry and declassified government documents,
turning every concrete surface into a public page. At Rockefeller Center and
the New York Public Library, passersby can glimpse the lyrical lines of
Yehuda Amichai, Henry Cole, and Mahmoud Darwish, among other poets. Pausing
for a while outside of the Bobst Library at NYU, viewers might wonder if some
statements were heavily edited before their release under the Freedom of

Though East London and the Dirty South seem to be the urban rhyming
flashpoints du jour, the French language offers an inherent fluidity
that English can't compete with. While the early '00s found the French
hip-hop genre out of ideas and dwelling on stagnant, somber piano loops and
angst, Parisian rap group TTC now stands as an example of the creativity
that's been injected back into the scene. Their sophomore album, Bâtards
Sensibles, finds the four cribbing from '80s electro, dancehall, and
classic Moroder while keeping one foot in the future. Plus they boast a très exubérant live show. (CJN)

Downtown Science.

Three w/ Terry Francis
|

Mention Three and Terry Francis to industry folks and fans who attended 2004's conference week in Miami and you may receive a knowing look. The two
spun an extended after-hours set of acid and tech-house that stunned the
heard-it-all group and kept people buzzing long after any other buzz wore
off. While we don't expect the decadence of South Beach, we anxiously await
hearing both producers together again. Tonight is ostensibly a release party
for Three's Hallucienda, a trippy tech-y mix of Hallucination label
artists and friends — Francis included — that captures the edge
and energy of Three's live sets. (CEH)

Trembling Blue Stars w/ Sprites, PAS/CAL, and Kawaii
|
|
Former Field Mice and Northern Picture Library frontman Robert Wratten started Trembling Blue Stars (a line cribbed from The Story of O) nearly a decade ago with a release on lovable lo-fi label Shinkansen, yet the band only came to the attention of many a listener a few years ago, with the band's first release on Sub Pop. But there's good news for latecomers: since the mid-'90s, TBS' sound has actually changed very little. Now backed by a four-piece band, Wratten croons breathy, melancholic lyrics — primarily about love lost — over shimmering pop arrangements. A show only for the feint of heart, this is the emergency pop kiss you've been waiting for. (JKG/KH)

Detroit's Electric Six have a reputation for campy disco among the hipster

pseudonymed members are a rock band at the end of the day. While their
domestically unreleased Señor Smoke is still rife with spacey, retro
synths, and they continue to lampoon everything from past and present
presidents to battery-operated sex toys, the band's live combination of
ambitious metal guitar solos and gritty basslines, punctuated by a cover of
Queen's "Radio Ga Ga" and Valentine's new arena-rockstar moves eases them out of '70s dance-funk and into a new era of flashy '80s rock. (IB)

Yinka Shonibare: Mobility
|

London-born and Nigeria-raised, British artist Yinka Shonibare continues his
picturesque explorations of the personal and political connections between
colonial history and globalized present. A self-fashioned diaspora dandy,
Shonibare's signature sculptural works are composed of headless mannequins
at play in batik, a cloth manufactured in Europe and distributed in Africa.
Clad in the exuberant prints with decorous tailoring, an ice-skating
reverend references a Scottish painting, while a group of figures rides
Victorian penny-farthing bicycles. Employing a refined visual wit, Shonibare
fractures cultural identity though a prism of non-didactic and nuanced
observation. (CEK)

Art in General's New Commissions Program, which provides support for
unconventional art practices, debuts with Sharon Hayes' politically charged
pseudo-documentaries, Lee Walton's experiential performances, and Melissa
Martin's grotesquely intimate sculpture. Walton transforms stray action into
a performance, inviting spectators to observe street-life with the heightened vigilance usually reserved for art. Martin painstakingly replicates her
father's body sculpted in 300 pounds of chewing gum to resemble individually
wrapped slabs of meat, lying in a refrigerator. Father's saccharine stench, Walton's conceptual ephemera, and Hayes' probing videos, all demonstrate how inventive playfulness can transmit serious ideas in an art context. (LC)

London-based company Improbable takes the metaphorical incorporation of set
design to another level in Spirit, with a ramp that situates the
actors half-in/half-out of its cleverly arranged trap doors. Multiple
paradoxes are explored, as three actors simultaneously narrate and act out a
tale of brothers running a bakery in a war-torn land. The work is at once
gloomy and hilarious, and a brilliant amalgam of puppetry, method, and
improv. Puppet bread-heads roll, and the actors play boys who in turn
pretend to be soldiers, enacting a disturbingly familiar human impulse
toward war and destruction. (KI)

CD REVIEW: Broadcast, Tender Buttons |
|
|
Warp
Released September 2005
$14.99 (Insound)
|
Broadcast garnered a sometimes fanatical fan base by creating traditional
pop songs held hostage by rabid Moogs. Their Nico-meets-Neu! sci-fi sound peaked with 2003's ambitious Ha Ha Sound, and after its release most of the band departed — leaving only singer Trish Keenan and bassist James Cargill. The new album, Tender Buttons,
favors uncluttered psychedelia, electro-sensual synth hooks, and Keenan's
haunting vocals placed front and center — where they've always
belonged. Tender Buttons won't send you directly to the dance floor,
but "Michael A Grammar" is a perfect pre-clubbing anthem, and the first single, "America's Boy," is primed for every fall iTunes playlist. The future hasn't
sounded this good since 1982. (KB)
 What do you think the future will sound like? Our two favorite responses in 50 words or less each win a copy of Tender Buttons.

Formed in 2003 as a nonprofit group, NYC's East Village Radio provides a creative forum not only for the inhabitants in the immediate neighborhood of its streetside studio on First Avenue, but also the world — thanks to its newly archived online streams. The station has been stepping up its game lately with a recent in-studio session from UK grime artists Ears, Double D, and Jammer (appearing on the FADER crew's "The Let Out" broadcast), but there's no exclusive programming focus. As evidence of such, check nick ac's minimal-techno set, Veronica Vasicka's collection of coldwave/post-punk rarities and the Misshapes kids breaking new music from Goldfrapp and Arctic Monkeys, along with a great new Kills remix.
