Celebrating the release of a comprehensive catalogue on Wynne Greenwood’s work, copublished by the Cooley Gallery and the New Museum, this launch will echo the format of an album release party, in which a number of bands perform short, back-to-back sets. For the event, a number of Greenwood’s longtime collaborators and colleagues will each perform short pieces in response to her work. The afternoon will feature performances by artists Morgan Bassichis, Joe DeNardo, K8 Hardy, Sara Jaffe, and Fawn Krieger,
The catalogue, designed by Heather Watkins, contains texts, images, ephemera, and performance transcriptions, with contributions by Johanna Burton, Wynne Greenwood, Sara Jaffe, Emily Roysdon, and Stephanie Snyder.
