FUZZ
visionary comfort, multi-dimensional, heart love experiences
Fuzz is an art show by new friends and old friends from central Virginia and elsewhere.
The show will include an oversize screen-printed pillow fort. In addition to the handcrafted works on display, there will be a merchandise table with homemade books, clothing and frills!
Throughout the exhibit, there will be a series of special events, including a piñata-making workshop, music shows, kite-flying and more.
Fuzz Calendar of Events:
May 2 – Opening Reception – 6 to 10 PM – Featuring cupcakes, a live musical performance by psychedelic-folk duo Anahita (featuring Tara from Fursaxa and Helena from Espers) and fuzz-folk band The Great White Jenkins from Richmond, VA. Music begins at 8 pm.
May 4 – Puppet Show – 4 PM – A delightful performance by Sean Purl Samoheyl, an artist from Louisa, VA. Sean makes whimsical puppets from cardboard and magic markers. Musical accompaniment by Super Daughter and Kayde.
May 15 – Pinata-making Workshop – 7 to 9 PM – Kristin Smith, an artist from Williamsburg, VA, leads a workshop on making pinatas. The piñata is a brightly colored paper-mache container, often shaped as an animal and filled with treats. Participants will get to make their own pinata and take home a how-to zine.
May 17 – Screen-printing Party – 1 to 4 PM – Thomas Dean and Travis Robertson screen print your shirt or hoodie or whatever for free. Thomas and Travis talk about their printing methods and styles at 1 pm. Thomas’ shirts are seen on awesome peeps up and down the East Coast. Travis was an integral part of The Drama, a now-defunct arts quarterly. Hands down, these are two of the best printers out of central Virginia. Friends from Space 1026 will be printing, too!
May 24 – Music Performance – 8 PM – Tickley Feather (Paw-Tracks) and Colin from USAisamonster (Load Records) perform. Tickley Feather grew up in central Virginia and now makes her home in Philly. Back in the day, Colin helped run a DIY show space in Charlottesville, VA. These days, he lives in Brooklyn and makes awesome noisy music. $6. Doors open at 7 pm.
May 25 – Drawing Party – 3 PM – Let’s draw, collage, and make zines together. Meet some new friends!
May 29 – Music Performance – Dark Meat (Orange Twin Records/Vice Records) perform. This 17-person music collective hails from Georgia and is as fond of Albert Ayler as we are. EARLY SHOW. More details TBA. $6
TBA – Kite Flying Celebration – RSVP for this event at the opening reception! If you sign up, you will be contacted in advance of a windy day in May for a wonderful kite-flying activity. Handmade screen printed kites will be available for participants and feel free to bring your own kite, too.

SPACE 1026 at the MoMA
PopRally Presents an Evening with Cannonball Press & Space 1026
MoMA
The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Education and Research Building
Join PopRally for a special night with Martin Mazorra and Mike Houston, printmakers and founders of Cannonball Press, along with artists from Space 1026, a unique creative community located in downtown Philadelphia.
Cannonball Press is a Brooklyn-based organization that produces affordable black and white prints by a number of artists (including Sean Star Wars, David Rees, David Ellis, Maya Hayuk, and Swoon.) In addition to their own art, Mazorra and Houston also work together to create large format woodcut prints. Space 1026 was founded over a decade ago by a handful of artists and tricksters who organize rowdy public events and outrageous installations at their building and at other institutions. At the heart of Space 1026 is a communal screenprinting workshop where the madness comes to life.
Following presentations by the artists, Gretchen Wagner, Curatorial Assistant in MoMA’s Department of Prints & Illustrated Books, moderates a discussion about the artists’ work, printmaking, collaborations, and more. A cocktail reception follows the event.
Tickets are $5 and are available at the Museum information and Film desks. You must be twenty-one or older to attend this event.
The Cullman Education and Research Building is located at 4 West 54 St.
PopRally would like to thank Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte for their sponsorship.
PopRally is funded by the generous support of Katherine Farley and Jerry I. Speyer.
