NYC Zine Fest '09
June 27 & 28, noon-7pm, Brooklyn Lyceum, Free Weekly Outlook
Much is happening this Thursday night -- use the list below to find what you want to see most, but one event that looks particularly intriguing is "The Fantastic Tavern: The Tbilisi Avant-Garde" at Casey Kaplan in Chelsea on Thursday. Tbilisi looks like a beautiful city (at least from the pictures on wikipedia), and the exhibition offers an interesting perspective and music at 8pm from young New York musician and composer Sergei Tcherepnin. A bit from their press release: "...an exhibition about a highly significant yet overlooked period in art history. During Georgia's short independence as the Democratic Republic of Georgia from 1918-1921, Tbilisi became the "Paris" of the East, where an inspired community of artists not only developed unprecedented creative practices but also collaborated to produce astonishing works of art. As members of the avant-garde in Russia fled Moscow in the early twentieth century, several key-figures from this group met with the avant-garde of Tbilisi. Their union marks a short but crucial period in Georgia's rich history that eventually led to the development of films, stage designs, theatrical performances, musical compositions, literature, sound poetry, magazines, books, paintings and sculptures, all of which form what is referred to today as "Georgian Modernism"." If the theory is a bit much, I think you'll find the music and the always-brightly-lit Casey Kaplan an interesting visit. Editor's Picks
