FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Joshua Machat 212.387.3410 / [email protected] THE VELVET UNDERGROUND NEW YORK ART Edited by Johan Kugelberg Introduction by Lou Reed and Maureen Tucker Preface by Vaclav Havel with text contributions by Doug Yule, Sterling Morrison, John Wilcock, and Jon Savage Timeline by Salvatore Mercuri THE VELVET UNDERGROUND: NEW YORK ART (November 2009) is the first monograph devoted to a Rock and Roll band. The Velvet Underground were among the New York avant-garde who closed the gap between the popular arts and the fine art movement of the 20th century. With Andy Warhol at the helm, the band contextualized the hi-art/low-art medium of the dysphoric Sixties with a unique mixture of sound experimentation, performance art, and pop sensibility. With an astonishing assembly of rare objects and artworks and the first book of its scale to document the formative years of the band, The Velvet Underground: New York Art, is not only a testament to one of the greatest New York City bands, but also a visual document of how music can influence the history of fine art and vice versa. From never-before-seen photographs of the band’s first live show in New York to Andy Warhol’s cover and poster designs, Lou Reed’s and John Cale’s handwritten music and lyrics, underground press clippings and controversial reviews, flyers, handbills, and posters, the materials comprise a uniquely comprehensive survey of the first rock group ever to transcend the genre and embrace underground popular culture.

  • The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction
    The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction The Velvet Underground helped create one of the first proto-punk songs and paved the path for future songs alike. Our group chose this group because it is one of those groups many people do not pay attention to very often and they are very unique and should be one that people should learn about. Shengsheng Biography The Velvet Underground was an American rock band formed in New York City in 1964. They are also known as The Warlocks and The Falling Spikes. Best-known members: Lou Reed and John Cale. 1967 debut album, “The Velvet Underground & Nico” was named the 13th Greatest Album of All Time, and the “most prophetic rock album ever http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTpZBIJzRM1H- made” by Rolling Stone in 2003.

Shengsheng Biography From 1964-1965: Lou Reed (worked as a songwriter) met John Cale (Welshman who came to United States to study classical music) and they formed, The Primitives. Reed and Cale recruited Sterling Morrison to play the guitar (college classmate of Reed’s) as a replacement for Walter De Maria. Angus MacLise joined as a percussionist to form a group of four. And this quartet was first named The Warlocks, then The Falling Spikes. Introduced by Michael Leigh, the name “The Velvet Underground” was finally adopted by the group in Nov 1965.

  • The Velvet Underground
    Page 1 of 2 The Velvet Underground Indie/Alternative Under Review (MVD) Stoner/Hard Rock by Brian Varney Punk/Power Pop Metal/Hardcore Coming to you from the always-fine folks at MVD is the first in a pair of documentaries, apparently two entries in the Electro/Industrial same series (the other covers the career of Captain Compilations Beefheart). These documentaries were of special interest to me because, despite my status as a full-blown geek more or less dictating that I love or at least pay lip service to these bands, I've never enjoyed listening to the music of either very much. Well, I take that back: I did undergo a brief Velvets phase during my teenage years, but I discarded them pretty quickly. However, the continued importance attributed to The Velvet Underground compels me to re-examine their legacy at somewhat regular intervals, and Under Review gave an opportunity to do just such a thing. Each film follows the band's career more or less chronologically, with a bit of background information on the main players provided when necessary, and tells the stories through a combination of voiceover narration, critical comments from band members (though it should be noted that main players Lou Reed and John Cale are not interviewed for this volume), friends, producers, fellow musicians (band members Moe Tucker and Doug Yule are interviewed), artists, and a few rock critics, along with a nice selection of rare performance footage. The films provide a reasonably in-depth analysis (this volume runs about 85 minutes), and even if there isn't much new information for the hardcore geeks, the performance footage is enough to make these films worthwhile.

L’exposition met en lumière l’influence de la scène musicale, du cinéma underground et de l’avant-garde chorégraphique new-yorkaise dans l’œuvre d’Andy Warhol (1928-1987). Elle est l’occasion de célébrer les cinquante ans de la rencontre de Warhol avec le groupe de rock new-yorkais The Velvet Underground, dont il devint le producteur. « Je n’ai jamais voulu être peintre, j’ai toujours voulu être danseur de claquettes », déclarait Warhol, alors même que l’œuvre de l’artiste du pop art est souvent réduite à sa dimension picturale. « Je ne peins plus. J’ai abandonné la peinture il y a à peu près un an et maintenant je ne fais plus que des films. La peinture était seulement une phase que j’ai traversée », ajoutait-il. Nombre de déclarations de l’artiste montrent combien son œuvre, extrêmement protéiforme, a dépassé la peinture, ainsi qu’il aimait lui-même à le penser. La musique, présente tout au long du parcours, guide le visiteur dans une redécouverte de l’œuvre de Warhol, à travers plus de 150 photographies de Nat Finkelstein, Hervé Gloaguen, Fred W.

Trop novateur, trop transgressif, trop frontal et trop frondeur pour son époque, il devient un indépassable modèle pour les mouvements des décennies suivantes, de l’explosion punk à nos jours. Avec le temps et à l’aide de quelques admirateurs de luxe (David Bowie, Kurt Cobain, Étienne Daho…), le fameux « album à la banane », qui fête ses cinquante ans cette année, s’est imposé comme matrice du rock moderne. À l’origine, la rencontre improbable de Lou Reed et John Cale, faux frères surdoués, au sein de la seule ville susceptible de les faire grandir ensemble : le New York interlope du début des sixties, où l’élite des artistes décide que tout est permis. Autour du poète rocker et du musicien d’avant-garde s’agrège une équipe de francs-tireurs – Sterling Morrison, étudiant en littérature et fan de rock’n’roll ; Moe Tucker, banlieusarde androgyne éprise de rythmes tribaux ; Nico, l’iceberg blond dont Andy Warhol va faire la chanteuse du Velvet Underground.

  • The Seminal Velvet Underground by Jim Derogatis
    The Seminal Velvet Underground By Jim DeRogatis I. Introduction “I have always believed that rock ’n’ roll comes down to myth. There are no ‘facts.’” — Lester Bangs, 1981 “I remember when the Velvet Underground came out, and very few people were interested in them at all. And for a certainty I knew that they were going to become one of the most interesting groups, and that there would be a time when it wouldn’t be the Beatles up there and then all these other groups down there, it would be a question of attempting to assess the relative values of the Beatles and the Velvet Underground as equals.” — Brian Eno, Punk magazine, 1976 “Where does this album fit in?... I think it’s great rock ’n’ roll. I think Alexander the Great, Lord Byron, Jack the Ripper, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Albert Einstein, James Dean, and other rock ’n’ roll stars would agree with me.” — Elliott Murphy, liner notes to 1969: The Velvet Underground Live with Lou Reed (1974) Such is the enduring influence of Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, and Maureen Tucker that it essentially has become a part of their collective name—they are the Seminal Velvet Underground, thank you very much—though in addition to standing as one of rock’s hoariest clichés, that phrase also slights Tucker’s role as one of rock’s instrumental gender pioneers. Fine points like that hardly matter though in the mad competition to hyperbolize the band’s genius. Witness another, even more resonant quote from that erudite musical philosopher Eno, though this one could be apocryphal (I’ve seen variations of it repeated dozens of times, but I’ve never found the original in any of his voluminous writings or interviews): “Only five thousand people ever bought a Velvet Underground album, but every single one of them started a band.” Mull that over for a second and you’ll realize that it’s pure hyperbole: All of those people can’t possibly have formed bands, because many of them clearly became rock critics! Not to mention the fact that by now, we’ve endured many more than five thousand shameless Velvets clones and unapologetic V.U.
