Taylor Mead Aphorisms features highlights taken from his underground classic On Amphetamine and in Europe. The seminal 1968 text collected his singular stream of consciousness short form poetry. He’s best known for starring in Warhol films (Imitation of Christ, Lonesome Cowboys, The Nude Restaurant) but more recently was seen in Jim Jarmusch’s Coffee & Cigarettes. Institutional support has ranged from his inclusion in The Whitney Museum’s “Day for Night” biennial to the Harvard Film Archive celebrating him this month as “the furiously beating heart of the American avant-garde.”
