  • Kembra Pfahler Is As Wide-Ranging As It Is Productive
    72 The biography of the iconic New York artist Kembra Pfahler is as wide-ranging as it is productive. It includes formative years spent in LA’s punk scene, a decade- long ‘day-job’ as a video dominatrix, stints modelling for Playboy, Penthouse, and Hustler, she’s been a muse and model for a diverse range of designers, including Calvin Klein, Rick Owens, and Marc Jacobs (in whose fall/ winter campaign she’s currently starring). She founded a wrestling federation, The Punk Ladies of Wrestling, and is the cofounder of Future Feminism, a movement merging artistic practices and activism aimed at uniting the multiple factions of feminism. Kembra’s accomplished all that in addition to her primary role as an acclaimed visual and performance artist whose work is collected by some of the world’s most important museums, including MoMA, The Whitney, and the Bozar Museum in Brussels. Perhaps the best way to KEMBRA PFAHLER INTERVIEW BY MICHAEL BULLOCK PHOTOGRAPHY BY VINCENT DILIO experience her world is to see her live. Her horror movie- inspired, nudist, punk band, The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black, blurs lines between ritual, performance art, and vaudeville, using irreverence, humour and in- your-face sexuality to destroy tired clichés of femininity. If Kembra’s life and career defy conventions, so does her home. Her East Village apartment is painted floor-to- ceiling in ‘tile-red’, and is organized by three philosophies: minimalism, avalibilism, and wabi-sabi. The result is rare: it has the zen and rigour of a Buddhist monk’s cell, yet it’s cloaked in a veneer of witchery.

  • Kembra Pfahler, Performer, on an EXPLODING WHALE
    AnOther Thing I Wanted to Tell You… HEROES Kembra Pfahler, performer, on an EXPLODING WHALE assistant: Porsche Poon. Post-production: Labyrinth Photographic. Special thanks to Clapton Tram Post-production: Poon. assistant: Porsche using NARS Cosmetics. Styling assistants: Rebecca Perlmutar and Marta Martinez Regidor. Make-up Hair: Maarit Niemela at Bryant Artists using Bumble and Bumble. Make-up: Jenny Coombs at Streeters “In 1949, Joseph Campbell wrote a book about the journey of the hero, about this path through the belly of the beast that people can take to have a personal, spiritual transformation. These days, for most of us, that would be a luxury: we are born in the belly of the beast, and we don’t have time to traipse around taking these 12 steps to self-discovery. A while ago, there was a story about a whale found on a beach in Thailand; it had died swimming for food in our dying oceans. The whale exploded on the beach because of the gases inside it: literally, it was viscous blood and guts for blocks. So today, rather than feeling we are in these fairytale stories about sitting in the belly of the beast and contemplating the world, we have to explode ourselves out of it. The surrealist future that Philip K Dick predicted is here, and the time is nigh to act quickly, aggressively, to be explosive.” Since the Eighties, Kembra Pfahler’s explosive approach to performance art has championed subversive ideals of what it means to be a woman. From acting as frontwoman to theatrical death- rock outfit The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black, to suturing her vagina shut for Richard Kern’s film Sewing Circle; singing alongside punk provocateur GG Allin, to co-authoring the radical manifesto Kembra is wearing of Future Feminism (alongside Anohni, Johanna Constantine and Bianca and Sierra Casady), hers a shirt dress by is a practice that has consistently centred around transgression, and maintained a furious intention PHOEBE ENGLISH to “change the world one show, one photograph, one picture, one poem, one song at a time”.

  • Press Release
    EMA- -LIN KEMBRA PFAHLER FOCUS � Stand H8 Frieze London Regent‘s Park 02 - 06 October 2019 Kembra Pfahler (b. 1961, Hermosa Beach, CA, USA. Lives and works in New York) is a visual and per- formance artist, filmmaker, punk-rock musician, actor and model. Formative in the LA punk scene in the 1970s, Pfahler is known for her leading role in New York’s Lower East Side underground scene in the 1980s and ‘90s. Her arrival in New York City at age eighteen – where she enrolled in the School of Visual Arts to study under the tutelage of artists Mary Heilmann and Lorraine O’Grady – alongside the devastating effects of the AIDS epidemic that swept the city and took the lives of many of her closest friends, marked a turning point for Pfahler, thereupon veering into more extreme artistic territory. Pfahler developed the philosophy of availabism, defined by ‘making the best use of whatever is available at any given time’. Quotidian objects, including bowling balls, eggs and turkey basters, crucifixes and anal beads, appear as theatrical props in performative actions that use irreverence, humour and bold sexuality to dismantle existing paradigms of femininity. Pfahler’s collaborations with artists such as Richard Kern, Matthew Barney, Bruce LaBruce, Anohni, Ron Athey, Vaginal Creme Davis, Jack Smith and more generally the Cinema of Transgression, to name a few, continue to shape the way performance art of the 1980s and 1990s is framed today. Resisting an active role in the commercial art world, Pfahler was convinced by legendary art dealer Colin De Land to stage her first solo exhibition at his gallery, American Fine Arts, Co.

Abstract NOT ART: AN ACTION IDSTORY OF BRITISH UNDERGROUND CINEMA My thesis is both an oppositional history and a (re)definition of British Underground Cinema culture (1959 - 2(02). The historical significance of Underground Cinema has long been ideologically entangled in a mesh of academic typologies and ultra leftist rhetoric, abducting it from those directly involved. The intention of my work is to return definition to the 'object' of study, to write from within.
