I do love arriving to New York, post-airport. Feeling the cold air on my face. Getting the train. Usually something happens that reminds me where I am. On this occasion, after leaving my things at the apartment where I&#8217;m staying, I went on my way to\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/rawvision.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raw Vision<\/a><\/span>\u00a0magazine&#8217;s party celebrating its 100th issue. On my way there, it was perfect, I entered the subway and heard the music that was used to open and close the film\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0088680\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">After Hours<\/a><\/span>. A classical piece, I forget who wrote it and what it&#8217;s called but I very much enjoy it. Most likely through the association with the film. It is perfectly fitting in the film, which is Manhattan atmosphere-focussed and from the lens of an &#8216;outsider&#8217;s&#8217; view of the downtown art scene of the early-mid 1980s (near enough when the film was made also). It was great and surprising to hear this piece on the subway upon arriving to New York. As if I was being welcomed by a specially curated subway journey. It was a violinist or cellist playing. It was quite a last minute decision and possibility to come, so I was very glad to be embarking on this odyssey. It is the first time my work is being shown at the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.outsiderartfair.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OAF<\/a><\/span>\u00a0in New York.

Nice. The Raw Vision party was cool. It was a night of short films submitted to Raw Vision, which made for some interesting viewing. The jetlag wasn&#8217;t too intrusive to my wakefulness but the atmosphere was somewhat surreal. I suppose sitting in an environment like an airplane for a good part of the day and then finding yourself walking around New York City in itself would do that. I had a complimentary beer. That was nice. I saw a few familiar beings. Jennie who was showing my drawings.\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ward-wright.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cathy Ward and Eric Wright<\/a><\/span>.

Apparently the exhibition Cavin-Morris had on at their actual gallery in New York was considered by some to be the best show they have ever put together. I was adamant that I&#8217;d reach and see it while I was there but sadly the stars didn&#8217;t align that way. They currently have a solo exhibition of\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/sefolosha.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christine Sefolosha<\/a><\/span>&#8216;s work on show, which must be fantastic. Sefolosha is a force to be reckoned with. It has now been a month since the fair, and a lot else has been happening so I&#8217;ll move ever onward..<\/p>\n<p>Whilst in NYC, I did manage to see the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.guggenheim.org\/exhibition\/hilma-af-klint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hilma af Klimt exhibition at the Guggenheim<\/a><\/span>.

The Guggenheim show was interesting to see. I think it could have been curated better but it was fascinating to see her work and learn about it. I can&#8217;t say I like all of it, but some of it was pretty special and considering it in various contexts was quite enlightening, notably when the work was created and how overlooked it was within art history.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/80cfb5e4ffbf2c238efb9e29e\/images\/be43b66d-f4df-4e33-a643-51cac30c4b61.jpg\" width=\"347\" height=\"260\" data-file-id=\"3667429\" \/><br \/>\nHilma af Klimt works at the Guggenheim, NYC<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The New York trip continues with a party at the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/folkartmuseum.org\/exhibitions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">American Folk Art Museum<\/a><\/span>\u00a0where\u00a0I saw the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CEb1VNv0QPk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paa Joe<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/01\/24\/arts\/design\/john-dunkley-american-folk-art-museum.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">John Dunkley<\/a><\/span>\u00a0exhibitions. Both interesting in different ways. I walked around the John Dunkley exhibition sensing something very familiar about the work and eventually saw this painting which immediately took me back to the museum in Kingston, Jamaica where I had seen this very painting a few years ago when I was there. I believe it was the only John Dunkley painting I saw when I was there, or it was the only one that struck me, but clearly it stayed with me somewhere in the brain files.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/80cfb5e4ffbf2c238efb9e29e\/images\/c7c2bf83-9c7c-4891-b95f-736bac44a1ff.jpg\" width=\"347\" height=\"463\" data-file-id=\"3667493\" \/><br \/>\nJohn Dunkley &#8216;Banana Plantation&#8217;, c.1945<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, it was Saturday, I had been running around town since Wednesday and against my urge to reach everywhere I wanted to reach, felt I did need some rest. My calculations of timing had begun to be off, and it was clear I needed to make some adjustments. I passed on the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.riccomaresca.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ricco\/Maresca<\/a><\/span>\u00a0party dedicated to the recently passed\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vulture.com\/2018\/10\/obituary-for-phyllis-kind-powerhouse-gallerist-1933-2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Phyllis Kind<\/a><\/span>, which I&#8217;d really have liked to experience. (note: I&#8217;d only met Phyllis Kind once, over a decade ago in the last year or two of her New York gallery being open. The exhibition was fantastic and I also got to see a Nick Blinko drawing up close for the first time, which was brought out from the stock room after we&#8217;d got talking about his work.) I laid low for an hour and then walked through the rain to\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/zincjazz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zinc Bar<\/a><\/span>.\u00a0It was imperative to check out some music, after all.

This show was from 8-10pm and there was another show over in Brooklyn that I&#8217;d initially planned to go see from 10pm onwards. I was toying with the idea of doing both somehow. The other show was a collective improvisation featuring the legendary drummer\/percussionist\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-YXdTvlaoOM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Warren Smith<\/a><\/span>,\u00a0saxophonist\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.salimwashington.com\/about-jazz-saxophonist-composer-scholar-and-activist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Salim Washington<\/a><\/span>\u00a0who I was interested in seeing from having listened to him on a record by\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UceVpaXo4cU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">QPSM Unit<\/a><\/span>,\u00a0and\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutjazz.com\/getting-to-know-ras-moshe-ras-moshe-by-dom-minasi.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ras Moshe Burnett<\/a><\/span>\u00a0whom I was intrigued to see also. I never made it to that event. Partly because, to my surprise, Salim Washington was on stage at the AfroHORN gig! I&#8217;d mentioned to Ahmed Abdullah via email, the other show, and he responded delighted to hear Salim Washington was in town and that they had known each other for a couple of decades and had been neighbours and worked together but that he had moved to South Africa. I could be wrong, but there is a possibility that Salim Washington was on that stage in Manhattan in part due to me having mentioned him in an email to Ahmed Abdullah!? Potential evidence in support of an alternate explanation is that the bassist on that QPSM Unit record was also on stage in Manhattan that night and that could have been his in. (In some sort of way, this reminds me of the time\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wayne_Kramer_(guitarist)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wayne Kramer<\/a><\/span>\u00a0of the\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yvJGQ_piwI0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MC5<\/a><\/span>\u00a0was performing in London on the day\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/GG_Allin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">GG Allin<\/a><\/span>\u00a0died, give or take a couple of decades, and as we were in correspondence at the time, I&#8217;d mentioned it to him the day before. The first words he said before starting to play referenced GG&#8217;s death and the newspaper reviews the following day made a point to highlight this. Kind of silly, but it&#8217;s funny how and where things ricochet). In any case, I was so glad I had come to hear this. It truly lifted my spirit and rejuvenated my everything. I was fulfilled and didn&#8217;t need to rush off to any next thing. I was soaking it in and reflecting on it for some time after. Salim Washington&#8217;s partner and baby were in attendance, all seemingly leaving for the other gig ten minutes before the set ends.
