  • America in Revolt: the Art of Protest
    AMERICA IN REVOLT: THE ART OF PROTEST February 3nd – February 27th, 2016 Private View: Tuesday, February 2nd, 6 – 8.30pm Shapero Modern is delighted to present AMERICA IN REVOLT: THE ART OF PROTEST, an exhibition of original posters and artwork created by students and activists during the landmark ‘Berkeley demonstrations’ in California in the early 1970s. Drawn from the archive of the late publisher Felix Dennis, and curated by the revered writer and counterculture historian Barry Miles, the collection is comprised of more than 150 posters, each one capturing the incendiary spirit of that time. While the demonstrations were initially sparked by the massacre of four unarmed student protesters at Kent State University by the Ohio National Guard on May 4th, 1970, they were also a response to the reinstatement of the military draft by President Nixon, and the escalation of the Vietnam War into Cambodia. AMERICA IN REVOLT: THE ART OF PROTEST is made up of 50 works from the Felix Dennis collection, which was recently acquired by Shapero Rare Books. All of the posters demonstrate the swift organisation of the student body. Just days after the Kent State shooting, the Berkeley Political Poster Workshop, made up of art, design and political students, took over a small space donated by a sympathetic contingent of the faculty. Here they quickly disseminated their message through an ad-hoc production line. Posters were silkscreened onto recycled computer paper and psychedelic calendars; others went straight onto cardboard to be used immediately at demonstrations. Only a few of each of these posters were made and most did not survive, such was their immediate necessity.

  • The Underground Press
    Catalog #4 The Underground Press Boo-Hooray Catalog #4: The Underground Press Terms: Usual. Not onerous. Boo-Hooray is proud to present our fourth catalog, dedicated to the 1960s and ‘70s underground press. For over a decade, we have been committed to the organization, stabilization, and preservation of cultural narratives through archival placement. Today, we continue and expand our mission through the sale of individual items and smaller collections. We invite you to our space in Manhattan’s Chinatown, where we encour- age visitors to browse our extensive inventory of rare books, ephemera, archives and collections by appointment or chance. The newspapers and magazines presented here–along with innumerable peer publications–established a trans-Atlantic network of underground press. This network provided an alternative to mainstream news and culture outlets, which had proved to be inept at covering the rapidly evolving social and political landscapes in Western Europe and Amer- ica. Though each had its own focus, these publications share histories of government prosecution, censorship, and surveillance; an animating mission of pushing the boundaries of cultural and political discourse; and shoestring budgets. Taken as a whole, these publications present a wide view of the countercultural zeitgeist of the 1960s and 70s. Catalog prepared by Beth Rudig, Director of Archives; Evan Neuhausen, Archivist; and Daylon Orr, Director of Rare Books & Manuscripts. Layout and design by Maya Fell. Please direct all inquiries to Daylon ([email protected]). All items subject to prior sale. Payment may be made via check, credit card, wire transfer or PayPal.

Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. University of Cape Town ABSTRACT Through unfolding, fragmentary memoirs, the disconnected odyssey of Nick Numbers, a rock music critic working in London and LA through the 1970s into the early 1980s, Rock & Roll explores the multiple realities that exist between documentary, documentable fact and supposedly pure fiction. Real people and verifiable occurrences are interwoven with invented characters and situations in a way that blurs any clear distinction between the two. The book also sees how the power of additions such as images and footnotes can add, or perhaps undermine, authority and credibility to a story. Meanwhile, stories connect the twin musical and lyrical strands, black rhythm and blues and the writings of the Beat generation, that somehow merged in the mid-1960s to produce rock music.
