Being cancelled doesn’t exist. Name me someone who “got cancelled” and I will find ways they’re still creating, still showing up, still getting paid. Still very much Alive and so un-cancelled. Sh*t, we have actual s*xual deviants hosting comedy shows and showcasing at Cannes. (Hopefully you have zero desire to commit s*xual shadiness or immoral acts.) BUT: You want to create dangerously. You want to be bold and honest. You want to be besties with nuance. Yay, awesome, so please remember: You cannot control another human being. (That’s called slavery and yeah, it never works out well…) No matter how careful or PC you are—someone won’t get you. They may even lead a Twitter campaign against you. It’s real. 🤷🏿‍♀️ But, I think a HUGE difference stems from your INTENTION. And while intention isn’t impact, the people who are meant to read your work will get it. I’m so sick of fake ass moral outrage from people who risk little or nothing in their art and life. 🙄 And I bet you are too. Here’s a writing prompt for you: “If I didn’t give a f*ck about being cancelled, I’d definitely have to say….” Write for 10 minutes. Share or save your delicious transgression for a rainy day. We need you complex expression. We need you to say the things left unsaid. Does this sound good to you? Cool. I’m hosting my writing workshop @womenwritingweedandwine tomorrow and the first Saturday of every month. My moonletter newsletter is open for subscription. You’ll enter the world of honey as knife and learn more about working with me as a coach or editor. Until then… 💋💋💋 • • #writingday #writingtip #writingthefuture #writingcontest #writingmystory #writingmood #writingsession #hannaheko #honeyistheknife #cancelculture (at Palermo, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZlZheQrZEy/?utm_medium=tumblr

A few gems from 'Keith Haring: Manhattan Penis Drawings for Ken Hicks,' in honor or Haring's birthday, May 4, 1958. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Of this remarkable little paperback, published by @nievesbooks John Sherman of @hyperallergic writes, "It may seem unusual to uphold a book of penis drawings as a significant art-historical moment, but 'Manhatten Penis Drawings for Ken Hicks' creates an unignorable link between Haring's early work and his homosexuality. The drawings are lightheartedly homosexual in a way not possible since the discovery of 'gay-related immune deficiency' (GRID) in 1982. In light of the forceful politics of Haring's later work, his penis drawings are, in a sense, the least complicated of his phallocentric art. They have no social message to impart, no silent president to shock into action. Keith Haring just really liked penises."⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #keithharing #writingthefuture #keithharingpenisdrawings #penisdrawings @keithharingfoundation @haring_archive https://www.instagram.com/p/COdSp_vJx9S/?igshid=3z0q6qne7hq6

Today we're thinking about Keith Haring, born OTD 1958. "Untitled (Boombox)" (1984) is reproduced from 'Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation,' published by @mfapublications @mfaboston and edited by @lizmunsell & @avantgroidd⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #keithharing #writingthefuture @keithharingfoundation @haring_archive https://www.instagram.com/p/COdIwf8Jjv5/?igshid=40tva42mnuys

A-One's "The Deadly Type" (1982) is reproduced from Black History Month staff pick 'Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation.' A-One, who died in 2001 in Paris, was known for a style he called "aerosol expressionism." A prolific graffiti artist and writer who shifted from the streets to the studio, he was also the subject of two portraits by Basquiat: "Portrait of A-One⁠⁠ AKA King" (1982) and "Anthony Clarke" (1985). ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ In "Portrait of A-One AKA King," Basquiat shows respect for his friend by bestowing him with a crown, @lizmunsell writes, "the symbol for a master graffiti artist." ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ "Black people are never portrayed realistically in . . . not even portrayed in modern art enough, and I’m glad that I do that," Basquiat is quoted. "I use the 'black' as the protagonist because I am black, and that’s why I use it as the main character in all the paintings. . . . A lot of them are self-portraits and some of them are just . . . you know, my friends and stuff."⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ He is also quoted in conversation with Henry Geldzahler, who asks: "What is your subject matter?"⁠⁠ Basquiat's response: "Royalty, heroism, and the streets."⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Published by @mfapublications @mfaboston⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Edited by @lizmunsell & @avantgroidd Text by @jfaithalmiron @dakotchen @huahsu #carlomccormick⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #blackhistory @fab5freddy @futuradosmil @leequinones @therammellzee #writingthefuture @carlomccormickick https://www.instagram.com/p/CLaOyRhp6by/?igshid=y4lmwoo8qk6j

Rammellzee's "Super Robber" (1985) is reproduced from 'Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation,' published to accompany, the groundbreaking show @mfaboston Featuring work by Jean-Michel Basquiat and 1980s NYC contemporaries including A-One, ERO, Fab 5 Freddy, Futura, Keith Haring, Kool Koor, LA2, Lady Pink, Lee Quiñones, Rammellzee and Toxic, this is a must-have book for any serious contemporary art or pop culture library. @jfaithalmiron writes, “Fearsome and fearless, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Rammellzee commanded the cosmos. Their street politics and poetics awakened the dead—from ancestors dwelling in the Atlantic or the Mississippi River to monks marooned in catacombs. Sons of Thor, they commanded the sea and sky. No Earth needed; as told in African American folklore, they were the people who could fly.”⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Published by @mfapublications @mfaboston⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Edited by @lizmunsell @avantgroidd Text by #jfaithalmiron @dakotchen @huahsu #carlomccormick⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #blackhistory @therammellzee #writingthefuture @carlomccormickick #rammellzee #basquiat #hiphop https://www.instagram.com/p/CLZ68ZLpS52/?igshid=1hotvu325ishv
