    THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM INTERVIEW WITH: WILLIAM (BILL) BURBACK (BB) INTERVIEWER: PATTERSON SIMS (PS) LOCATION: THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, PATTERSON SIMS’ OFFICE (OFFICE OF THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR EDUCATION AND RESEARCH SUPPORT) DATE: APRIL 9, 1999 BEGIN TAPE 1, SIDE 1 PS: You‟re a New Yorker [Pause]. BB: Yes, I am a New Yorker. PS: You came here as a junior member of the Photography Department. [Pause] BB: A curatorial intern. It was the New York State Council program. PS: We didn‟t have an internship program then, so you were among the vanguard of interns at the Museum. Now we have a very ambitious intern program. BB: I think it was probably different curatorial departments who took the initiative. There were a number of people who had proceeded... PS: Peter [Galassi] came an intern. BB: I think so, yes, PS: Yes. BB: And [Maria] Morris [Hambourg], at the Met, quite a few people, Anne Tucker, a lot of interesting people. MoMA Archives Oral History: W. Burback page 1 of 29 PS: And it was a part of the national program, NEA, which sent people? BB: No, it was here, the New York Council, but John [Szarkowski] had quite a network, and I met him actually at the Oakland Museum. I was working there as a curatorial assistant in their photography division and I was lucky enough to know him. He was going to Hawaii or someplace like that, probably, though I learned from him in an hour than I had to that point, because the way he saw things and the way he saw that they should be presented were so exciting.

BEAUX BOOKS ............................................................................................. “It's true to say that I've been searching for my lost youth in my pictures and am basically still looking for it.” (Bruce Weber, Roadside America) the WEBER list Bruce Weber (b.1946) is one of our greatest living photographers. His books, films and exhibitions have placed him at the forefront of American photography for the past 40 years. His ground-breaking work for fashion brands such as Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Versace and Abercrombie & Fitch has changed the face of fashion advertising. Weber's photography is inextricably linked with his own life. His subjects are his friends, and his friends are his subjects. These are real people. They give an honesty to the photographs which have, at the same time, an almost mythical quality. The beautiful, often naked, bodies against the raw American landscape echo a classical, pastoral ideal. This is Weber's American dream – a joyous road-trip around America

A catalyst and an illuminator, but also a magnet for scandal, Robert Mapplethorpe had but one goal: to ‘make it’ as an artist and as an art celebrity. He could not have picked a better time: the Manhattan of Warhol’s Factory, Studio 54, and an era of unbridled hedonistic sexuality. His first solo exhibition in 1976 already unveils his subjects: flowers, portraits and nudes. Mapplethorpe quickly gains notoriety through his explicitly sexual photographs from the gay sadomasochistic scene as well as nude pictures of black men. Directors Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato were given unrestricted access to Mapplethorpe’s archives for their documentary Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures, in which this exceptional artist talks candidly about himself in recently discovered interviews.

  • Chapter 1 in 1977, a Graffiti Duo with the Name Of
    Chapter 1 ART, CULTURE, AND NEW YORK CITY In 1977, a graffiti duo with the name of SAMO (standing for Same Old Shit) began bombarding New York subways and slums. It was the height of graffiti’s hold on the city, with thousands of kids running through subway tunnels deep into the night, away from cops and into subway yards where they spent hours painting masterpieces and signature tags on the sides of the subway cars so that, come morning, the trains would barrel through the city displaying their names and artwork like advertisements to anyone waiting on the platform. Thousands of kids wrote graffiti through their teenage years, only to put aside their artistic leanings by the time they reached their twenties, remaining unknown and invisible to anyone who didn’t ride the New York subway system during the 1970s and ’80s. But SAMO was different. Still living in the gritty East Village, working and DJ-ing at downtown clubs, by 1981, one-half of the duo, Jean-Michel Basquiat, had attained recognition in the art world as the “Radiant Child” in ArtForum magazine. By the early eighties, Basquiat was being shown alongside Julian Schnabel, David Salle, Francesco Clemente, and Keith Haring. Between 1982 and 1985, Basquiat dated a then little-known musician named Ma­ donna, began working with Andy Warhol, was shown by the star- maker gallery owner Mary Boone (his paintings sold for over $20,000), and landed on the cover of the New York Times Maga­ zine. In 1988, he died of a heroin overdose. He was twenty-seven years old.

  • DISBAND Press Release
    DISBAND Press Release Active in the downtown art scene in Manhattan from 1978-82, the members of DISBAND screamed, shouted, sang, and stomped through the heyday of New York City’s new- and no-wave scenes, blurring the line between performance art and live music. Members included Barbara Ess, Ilona Granet, Donna Henes, Daile Kaplan, Barbara Kruger, Ingrid Sischy, Diane Torr and Martha Wilson. Mirroring the chaos and temporality of that time, the band sang such songs as “The End,” “Five More Years,” “Every Day Same Old Way,” “Get Rebel,” “Sad,” “Iran-y” and “DOW.” They also addressed their status as women through songs such as “Girls’ Bill of Rights,” “Hey Baby,” “Fashions” and “Look at My Dick.” DISBAND has performed in many New York venues, such as PS1, the Kitchen, the Mudd Club, TR3, and nationally at such venues as Hallwalls, LAICA and Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art. In 1980 DISBAND toured Italy with Laurie Anderson, Chris Burden, and others. HISTORY OF DISBAND 1978-1982, by Martha Wilson in collaboration with band members Ilona Granet, Donna Henes, Ingrid Sischy and Diane Torr: My friend Marvin Taylor, founder of the Downtown Collection at NYU, said “Everybody was in three bands.” This was certainly true for the very first members of DISBAND, Daile Kaplan and Barbara Ess (except Martha Wilson). Daile was also in Rhys Chatham’s band, the Gynecologists, and Barbara Ess was in Glenn Branca’s band, Static, as well as founding her own all-girl band, Y-Pants. Other bands around in the late 70s were the Theoretical Girls, Bush Tetras, James White and the Blacks, Tone Death, Con Iced, A-Band, Daily Life, the Idiot Orchestra, the Diplomat Samurai Band, the Love of Life Orchestra.

SHORT SYNOPSIS An entertaining and revelatory “secret history” of Feminist Art, !Women Art Revolution deftly illuminates this under-explored movement through conversations, observations, archival footage and works of visionary artists, historians, curators and critics. Starting from its roots in 1960s antiwar and civil rights protests, the film details major developments in womenʼs art through the 1970s and explores how the tenacity and courage of these pioneering artists resulted in what is now widely regarded as the most significant art movement of the late 20th century. For more than forty years, filmmaker and artist Lynn Hershman Leeson (Teknolust, Strange Culture) has collected a plethora of interviews with her contemporaries—and shaped them into an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large. With a rousing score by Sleater-Kinneyʼs Carrie Brownstein, !W.A.R. features Miranda July, The Guerilla Girls, Yvonne Rainer, Judy Chicago, Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono, Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, B. Ruby Rich, Ingrid Sischy, Carolee Schneemann, Miriam Schapiro, Marcia Tucker and countless other groundbreaking figures. !WOMEN ART REVOLUTION (!W.A.R.) LONG SYNOPSIS Artist and filmmaker Lynn Hershman Leesonʼs documentary is more than four decades in the making. !Women Art Revolution (!W.A.R.) draws from hundreds of hours of in-the- moment interviews with her contemporaries—visionary artists, historians, curators and critics—to present an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large.

The interview took place in Berkeley, Calif., and was conducted by Sue Heinemann for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution.

So Moira, I thought we'd just start with your childhood and early period. MOIRA ROTH: Well, what I've done in preparation for this is to pull together a number of documents, including my mother's birth certificate, my parents' marriage and my own birth certificate and a couple of photographs about my mother. So let me begin by this: My mother was Scottish-Canadian and was born in Canada, and on her birth certificate she says she's the daughter of Duncan McClellan.
