Scrivener's Monthly is a series of public presentations that explore the space between material practices and spoken words: a periodical that talks. Set alongside the exhibitions program at The Western Front, this experiment in "not publishing" will involve readings, performances, and other articulations.  

For the first iteration of Scrivener's Monthly, from June 2nd to June 17th, British artist and designer Will Holder will be researcher in residence at the Western Front. During his stay Holder will host a series of events related to the work of contemporary American composer Robert Ashley.*


Public events include: "An Evening with Robert Ashley" a talk by Will Holder, at 8 pm on Thursday June 14th | a performance of Robert Ashley’s “The Entrance”(1966) by Julia Feyrer & Will Holder at 8 pm on Friday, June 15th | a Recital of "Yes, But Is It Edible?" & "Pillars" audio playback hosted by Will Holder at 8 pm on Saturday June 16th.



All events at: Western Front | 303 East 8th Avenue 



Co-presented by Fillip.
