Pettibon Press Release EXHIBITIONS IN A BOX Compact exhibitions that generate expansive ideas RAYMOND PETTIBON: THE PUNK YEARS, 1978-86 "The flyers were one of the best things about working with SST," recalls the lanky Pettibon at his Redondo Beach studio. "It's more of a general audience when it goes on a telephone pole. It's not something that you can buy in a store or see on TV. You see it at a glance and you can't switch it off.” -from "Black Flag Cover is Pure Pettibon," by Jeff Spurrier, Los Angeles Times, July 1, 1984 ICI's newest series of exhibitions celebrates the fact that interesting projects can come in small parcels. Taking its lead from initiatives such as Marcel Duchamp's Boîte-en- valise and George Maciunas' Fluxkits, each Exhibitions in a Box provides source material from which venues can generate exhibitions tailored to their specific programs and local context. The first in the series, Raymond Pettibon: The Punk Years, 1978-86, taps into the steady stream of this California artist's early graphic arts production, before he appeared on the contemporary art stage. Assembled by Specific Object’s David Platzker, this Exhibition in a Box includes almost 200 examples of Pettibon's powerful designs made between 1978 and 1986, when he was immersed in the Los Angeles punk rock scene, doing the graphic design for Black Flag and other punk bands such as Circle Jerks, Dead Kennedys, Go-Go's, Hüsker Dü, Meat Puppets, Minutemen, Ramones, Subhumans, Throbbing Gristle, Wasted Youth, and many more. Raymond Pettibon Black Flag / Hong Kong Cafe / Tues. While Pettibon remains a cult figure among underground Sept. 25 / Thurs. Sept. 27, Blue Paper, 1979 music devotees for these early designs, over the past twenty years, he has acquired an international reputation as one of the foremost contemporary American artists working with drawing, text, and artist’s books. Crossing back and forth between music and the visual arts, this selection of 44 zines, 120 fliers and posters, stickers and collection of album covers show Pettibon’s raw imagery, heavily shadowed technique, and characteristic visual punch in formation. Most of the designs were done for SST Records, founded by his brother Greg Ginn, who was also guitarist for Black Flag. Pettibon is also credited with both conceiving the band's name—a riff on the British heavy metal band Black Sabbath and the legendary Black Flag insecticide—as well as designing Black Flag's iconic four black bar "flag" logo. In addition to the two-dimensional contents in the box, CDs of SST bands as well as a Grammy award-winning monologue by Black Flag vocalist, Henry Rollins, enrich the context and show Pettibon in his original milieu. Conceived to be presented in a wide range of institutions, from museum project spaces to artist- run galleries, The Punk Years, 1978-86 contains materials that illustrate Pettibon’s interests in a subculture overlapping music and art. In different presentations, the box contents will be complemented by other works by Pettibon or historical material from that era from local collections and archives. The exhibition will begin its tour at the University Galleries at Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, FL (November 13, 2010 – January 22, 2011). Additional venues to be announced. About the artist Raymond Pettibon is an American artist who was, from the late 1970s through the mid-1980s, closely associated with the punk rock band Black Flag and the record label SST Records, both founded by his older brother Greg Ginn. Beginning in the mid 1980s, he became a well-known figure in the contemporary art scene. Pettibon’s work encompasses a spectrum of American experience, from marginal youth sub-cultures to art, literature, sports, religion, politics, and sexuality. Pettibon began exhibiting his work in group shows in galleries in the 1980s. In 1992, he was invited to participate in Helter Skelter: L.A. Art in the 1990s, curated by Paul Schimmel at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. Pettibon was included in the Whitney Biennial in 1993 and 1997, and in 1998, his self-titled show opened at the Renaissance Society in Chicago, and traveled to the Drawing Center in New York, NY; the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, PA; and the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, CA. In 2007, Pettibon participated in the Venice Biennial, Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind: Art in the Present Tense, curated by Robert Storr for which the artist installed a unique wall drawing. In 2010, Pettibon will participate in the Liverpool Biennial curated by Lorenzo Fusi. In early 2011, Rizzoli will release a monograph, edited by Ralph Rugoff, that will be the most comprehensive publication of Pettibon’s works to date. About David Platzker David Platzker is the director of Specific Object, an innovative gallery, bookshop, and storehouse for a range of items from artist's multiples to unique works of literature, music, and sound. Prior to founding Specific Object, Platzker was the executive director of Printed Matter, a non-profit institution dedicated to the promotion of artists' publications from 1998 to 2004, and he has curated exhibitions of artists including John Baldessari, Marcel Duchamp, Ed Ruscha, and Claes Oldenburg.

  • SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music
    Page 1 The San Diego Union-Tribune October 1, 1995 Sunday SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music By Daniel de Vise KNIGHT-RIDDER NEWSPAPERS DATELINE: LOS ALAMITOS, CALIF. Ten years ago, when SST Records spun at the creative center of rock music, founder Greg Ginn was living with six other people in a one-room rehearsal studio. SST music was whipping like a sonic cyclone through every college campus in the country. SST bands criss-crossed the nation, luring young people away from arenas and corporate rock like no other force since the dawn of punk. But Greg Ginn had no shower and no car. He lived on a few thousand dollars a year, and relied on public transportation. "The reality is not only different, it's extremely, shockingly different than what people imagine," Ginn said. "We basically had one place where we rehearsed and lived and worked." SST, based in the Los Angeles suburb of Los Alamitos, is the quintessential in- dependent record label. For 17 years it has existed squarely outside the corporate rock industry, releasing music and spoken-word performances by artists who are not much interested in making money. When an SST band grows restless for earnings or for broader success, it simply leaves the label. Founded in 1978 in Hermosa Beach, Calif., SST Records has arguably produced more great rock bands than any other label of its era. Black Flag, fast, loud and socially aware, was probably the world's first hardcore punk band. Sonic Youth, a blend of white noise and pop, is a contender for best alternative-rock band ever.

  • California Noise: Tinkering with Hardcore and Heavy Metal in Southern California Steve Waksman
    ABSTRACT Tinkering has long figured prominently in the history of the electric guitar. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, two guitarists based in the burgeoning Southern California hard rock scene adapted technological tinkering to their musical endeavors. Edward Van Halen, lead guitarist for Van Halen, became the most celebrated rock guitar virtuoso of the 1980s, but was just as noted amongst guitar aficionados for his tinkering with the electric guitar, designing his own instruments out of the remains of guitars that he had dismembered in his own workshop. Greg Ginn, guitarist for Black Flag, ran his own amateur radio supply shop before forming the band, and named his noted independent record label, SST, after the solid state transistors that he used in his own tinkering. This paper explores the ways in which music-based tinkering played a part in the construction of virtuosity around the figure of Van Halen, and the definition of artistic ‘independence’ for the more confrontational Black Flag. It further posits that tinkering in popular music cuts across musical genres, and joins music to broader cultural currents around technology, such as technological enthusiasm, the do-it-yourself (DIY) ethos, and the use of technology for the purposes of fortifying masculinity. Keywords do-it-yourself, electric guitar, masculinity, popular music, technology, sound California Noise: Tinkering with Hardcore and Heavy Metal in Southern California Steve Waksman Tinkering has long been a part of the history of the electric guitar. Indeed, much of the work of electric guitar design, from refinements in body shape to alterations in electronics, could be loosely classified as tinkering.

  • RAYMOND PETTIBON to Wit
    519 West 19th Street Fax 212 727 2072 David Zwirner New York, NY 10011 Telephone 212 727 2070 For immediate release RAYMOND PETTIBON To Wit September 12 – October 26, 2013 Opening reception: Thursday, September 12, 6 – 8 PM David Zwirner is pleased to present an exhibition of new works by Raymond Pettibon, on view at the gallery’s 519 West 19th Street space in New York. It marks the artist’s ninth solo exhibition with David Zwirner since joining the gallery in 1995. Pettibon’s work embraces a wide spectrum of American “high” and “low” culture, from the deviations of marginal youth to art history, literature, sports, religion, politics, and sexuality. Taking their points of departure in the Southern California punk-rock culture of the late 1970s and 1980s and the “do-it-yourself” aesthetic of album covers, comics, concert flyers, and fanzines that characterized the movement, his drawings have come to occupy their own genre of potent and dynamic artistic commentary. To Wit presents a wide range of drawings and collages unified by their bold, vivid lines and striking compositions. Fragments from American society have been distilled into key images, which often incorporate texts of varying length, from one word to several paragraphs. The selection of texts, spanning a broad array of influences from popular media to Marcel Proust, William Faulkner, Henry James, Gustave Flaubert, and the Bible, relate both rhythmically and narratively to the visual content of his drawings, although their relationship may not always be immediately apparent. No Title (Route 69, follow…), 2013 Collage, ink, and gouache on paper 27 ¼ x 17 inches (69.2 x 43.2 cm) Defined as “namely” or “that is to say,” to wit originally meant “to know” (from the Middle English, “to witen”).
