Performance at 8pm: Reading of The Art Party Manifesto to music by trombonist Dikko Faust

JOIN THE ART PARTY OF THE USA!

During the opening reception, at 8pm, Bob & Roberta Smith will read The Manifesto for The Art Party to music by the extraordinary Avant letterpress trombonist Dikko Faust. Pierogi and Purgatory Pie Press are proud to announce the release of a limited edition letterpress print (pictured above) to celebrate the launch of The Art Party and The New York City Gotham Golem.

We are pleased to present an exhibition of new work by Bob & Roberta Smith at The Boiler, featuring his Gotham Golem, conjured by the artist to launch The Art Party and to serve to protect the creative arts. Smith’s work covers a range of genres and media including painting, performance, music, and radio broadcasts, all with a dry, biting humor and a strong DIY spirit. “By combining such diverse media with the language styles of alternative protest movements, folk and punk, Bob and Roberta Smith attempts to challenge established authorities and values, and encourage creativity in people.” (BAC) His previous exhibitions at Pierogi include The Art Amnesty (2002) and Birds are the New Fish: Renaming the New Millennium (1998).
