The Ladies' Auxiliary Debutante Ball at Club 57 [poster]New York: Club 57, [1980]. Offset. 17 x 11 in. Line from folding into halves, light bumping and wear to edges; very clean example.Poster promoting a punk-ironic Debutante Ball at Club 57, New York City’s short-lived post-punk venue (1978–83) managed by Ann Magnuson, where music mixed with visual art, experimental film, performance and politics.The Ball was organized by the Ladies' Auxiliary, a feminist club within Club 57 made-up mostly by women artists, that organized all kind of fun events such as slumber parties (with ‘Go-Go Boys’ that included artists Kenny Scharf and John Sex), a team on Lady Wrestling nights, and special exhibitions of members’ artwork.A hub of New York’s ‘downtown scene’, Club 57 exemplified ways in which artists’ increasingly promiscuous experiments across media led them to abandon high-brow galleries and museums in favour of nightclubs, discos and bars. This tendency dovetailed with the practices of an emergent generation of feminist artists eager to both break out of the sexist art world and engage with popular culture and audiences.Condition as described in catalogue note.

Poster and Original Artwork for Six Public Acts to Transmute Violence into Concord [Legacy of Cain][Julian Beck]Pittsburgh: The Living Theatre, [1975]. Pencil on offset printed map of Pittsburgh with four small pieces of tape near right edge; stencil print in black ink on offset printed map of Pittsburgh. Both 36 x 25 ½ in. Very good; heavily creased from folding, some minor tears at fold lines, and toning and bumping at edges.Original hand-drawn poster mock-up and stenciled poster by Living Theatre co-founder Julian Beck for Six Public Acts to Transmute Violence into Concord, part of the Living Theatre’s Legacy of Cain cycle of plays.This mock-up and poster were both produced on roadmaps of Pittsburgh, a reference to the fact that the performances were staged not in a traditional theatrical venue, but in public spaces across the Steel City. Throughout the 1970s, the Living Theatre performed The Legacy of Cain in several nontraditional venues around the world, from a Pittsburgh steel mill to a Brazilian prison and the streets of Palermo, Italy. These plays were designed not only for a variety of venues, but a variety of audiences, especially those who would otherwise have limited access to theater.The printed version of the poster differs slightly from the pencil mock-up. Most notably, Beck has printed his own version of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) logo, which, while a feature of the map used for the mock-up, is missing from the map used for the print.Condition as described in catalogue note.
