Broadcast #007: Nick Mauss / Julia Bryan-Wilson; LA Book Launch! & October's Angel-of-the-Month!
Good Morning, Angels…
Angelic Transmissions #007 broadcasts live today 12-2pm EST via East Village Radio. To mix up the format, today both guests will be with us for the entire two hour block! Artist, writer and curator Nick Mauss will be discussing his new book of selected essays Dispersed Events, along with his friend, art historian Julia Bryan-Wilson, in relation to her experimental monograph Louise Nevelson’s Sculpture: Drag, Color, Join, Face. We will be joined by Leigha Mason to gossip about an all time favorite, Carl Theodore Dreyer’s The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) playing around the corner at Anthology Film Archives.

Later this week I’ll be in Los Angeles for the Feint of Heart West Coast book launch.
On Wednesday October 23rd, 4pm, at David Zwirner (612 N Western Avenue, LA) I’ll be moderating “From Here, It Looks Like This” a conversation between esteemed critic Christopher Knight and incredible painter Lari Pittman about their long relationships with Dave Hickey in context of LA’s ‘90s art scene.
Please come! Tell your LA friends! RSPV: rsvp-losangeles@davidzwirner.com.
Also out now is a conversation I had with Helen Molesworth on the Dialogues podcast: “The Problem of Taste: On the Late, Great Dave Hickey”
“Complex Rainbow Sinage” the essay I wrote about eloping in Las Vegas and then stopping in the desert to see Ugo Rondinone’s Seven Magic Mountains is out now in the beautiful catalog Cry Me A River accompanying his homecoming exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Luzern in Switzerland (which coincidentally closes this week).
And now, as ever, I’m proud to announce October 2024’s Angel-of-the-Month:
Wonderful essay in the new Rondinone book, JE. Great writing.
