March Exhibit | PUNKS GIT CUT

New works by JAY HOWELL
March 6-29th

Opening Reception: March 6th at 6pm

111 Minna Gallery is delighted to present Jay Howell’s PUNKS GIT CUT showing new paintings, photos and animations exhibiting March 6 - 29th. The Gallery will host an artist reception Thursday, March 6th at 6pm with San Francisco band, The Jizz performing live plus special guest DJ’s spinning tunes throughout the evening. The reception is FREE and open to the public. The exhibition will be on view from Thursday, March 6th through March 29th. 111 Minna Gallery is located at the corner of Minna and 2nd Streets in downtown San Francisco.

San Francisco’s raconteur of the arts and music scene - painter, cartoonist, publisher, DJ, cyclist, and dog lover, Jay Howell, will present his first major solo show.

"It sounds silly, but I just want people to laugh, it means so much to me and nothing else matters."
– J. Howell


 

As with all his endeavors Jay brings to the PUNKS GIT CUT exhibition the same spirit of invention and authentic outlook that characterize his zine of the same name that he has been publishing for the last twelve years.

After flunking out of Art School in only six months Howell, professing an “I don’t know what the hell I’m doing and I don’t care” attitude, kept drawing – gross cartoons, funny cartoons – going on to create skateboard graphics for Antihero and Consolidated. He exaggerates the eccentricities of the human character while simultaneously generalizing about our wide range of shared characteristics like boners and cute dogs.

Jay is the author of countless books and zines, most recently the instructional guides; Dog and Dog Information and Let Me Tell You Where to Stick It (with Audrey Erickson). Jay is also co-owner of the record label Mount Saint Mountain, who with partner Mark Kaiser, has continued to put out great records for the last several years.
