A Benefit For The "Vancouver Five" with Sonic Youth, Nihilistics, Rat At Rat R, False Prophet, Adrenalin O.D., and Misguided[New York]: Charas New Assembly Hall, [1983]. Offset. 11 x 8 1/2 in. Bumping to bottom left corner; very clean example.Flyer promoting a benefit concert for the Vancouver Five featuring Sonic Youth, Nihilistics, Rat At Rat R, False Prophets, Adrenalin O.D., and Misguided at the Charas New Assembly Hall in the Alphabet City, New York.The Vancouver “Squamish Five” were a group of urban guerillas who called themselves “Direct Action,” responsible for three high-profile acts of bombing and property destruction.Led by anarcho-feminist Ann Hansen, Direct Action was made up of four other members including Gerry Hannah of the hardcore band the Subhumans. Through Hannah, Direct Action made connections with hardcore and underground scenes throughout North America. Their résumé of property destruction is short and explosive like a hardcore song: first, they vandalized the offices of the British Columbia Ministry of Environment; a month later they stole a large cache of dynamite belonging to Department of Highways and used it to blow up an electric hydro station in Vancouver; their next action involved another stolen truck full of dynamite, which they placed outside a factory of American weapons manufacturer Litton Industries. The factory blew up into tar, dust, and smoke, and a national police search began. Before they were caught, the Five incorporated themselves into the larger group, the Wimmin’s Fire Brigade, and managed to fire bomb three franchises of Red Hot Video, a video porn store that had gained notoriety in feminist activism for allegedly distributing child, rape, and snuff porn. When they were finally caught nearly a year after they began their activist campaign, they were handed lengthy prison sentences in a highly publicized trial.A document of the politics of the No Wave and NYHC scene.Condition as described in catalogue note.

Two Tomata du Plenty art show flyersLos Angeles: Tomata du Plenty, [1998-1999]. Offset and xerox. 5 1/2 x 4 1/2 in. and 6 1/2 x 3 3/4 in. Bumping to both flyers; light discoloration at the top of Beyond Baroque flyer.Two flyers promoting art shows featuring the work of Tomata du Plenty shortly before his death. The first show at the ""You've Got Bad Taste"" venue in Los Angeles in 1998 was an ""artistic salute to Punk Rock,"" titled ""Punish or be Damned! Reliving the Nightmare."" It featured du Plenty's woodcuts and paintings of punk rock and punk musicians. The second show at Beyond Baroque bookstore in Los Angeles in 1999 featured Tomata's paintings of the Beats and other writers he liked.Du Plenty, born David Xavier Harrigan (1948-2000) fronted the groundbreaking Los Angeles synth-punk band The Screamers in the 1970s and was a member of the counterculture theatre troupes Ze Whiz Kids in Seattle and the Cockettes in San Francisco. A multi-talented performer, actor, and artist, du Plenty greatly influenced the art and music scenes wherever he lived—in Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, New Orleans, or Miami.In 1982, Du Plenty found an old set of paints and brushes in an alley off Hollywood Boulevard and dedicated the rest of his career to painting. His work was classified as folk or outsider art, and he did not mind the distinction, often selling his paintings for only ten to twenty-five dollars each at local bars. He worked with watercolors on found sheets of paper, and later moved almost exclusively to paintings on wood boards. The subjects of his works were often pop culture heroes, artists he admired, local characters, and friends. A cult hero throughout his life and since his death, his paintings still resonate as documentation of the vibrant queer punk counterculture he moved within throughout America, and the cultural references that inspired him.Condition as described in catalogue note.

Steve Reich "Drumming / Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ / Six Pianos" flyerNew York: Steve Reich, 1974. Offset. 11 x 8 1/2 in.Flyer advertising minimalist composer Steve Reich's 3 LP boxed set, "Drumming / Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ / Six Pianos."Issued by Deutsche Grammophon in 1974, this box set brought together three of Reich's major works from the early 1970s. The iconic four-part score, "Drumming," was Reich's longest ever composition and represented the final refinement of the phasing process. "Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ" features a simple pattern played by different instruments in interrelated rhythmic processes inspired by non-Western music that characterized his compositions in this period. "Six Pianos," meanwhile, was envisioned as "a piece for all the pianos in a pianos store," according to Reich.Condition as described in catalogue note.
