Copeland made the book by cutting letters out of four identical copies of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and pasting them over the narrative, using correction fluid on others, in a process that took more than 11,000 hours over three and a half years. The result sits between poetry and prose and rhymes with his work as a visual artist and as a member of Black Dice. The launch runs from 6 to 8 PM at the store in Chelsea.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/eric-copeland-on-demon-portraits-with-dem-passwords-55023/", "official_url": "https://www.printedmatter.org/programs/events/2338", "image": "https://noky.io/images/3a58e2fd5d2ec3c8b2507c097d8e72d1adb259ff2d1f1373b355d940371d5015-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-19T18:00:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "Printed Matter, Inc.", "address": "West 11th Street 231", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Octopus & Others: Acts of Collaboration & Poetics", "start": "2026-08-06T00:00:00-04:00", "end": "2026-11-15T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "El Museo Del Barrio", "address": "5th Avenue 1230, 10029 New York", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art/sculpture", "literature/poetry"], "description": "Octopus & Others: Acts of Collaboration & Poetics is a group exhibition at El Museo del Barrio. It is inspired by Papo Colo's 1982 project Octopus: An Act of Sculpture, an accordion-style outdoor book made of plywood panels first staged in the museum's courtyard, with several panels recently gifted to the museum's Permanent Collection and shown for the first time in more than four decades. Each page of Octopus was made onsite by an artist or poet from New York City's uptown and downtown scenes, including Nicholasa Mohr, Pedro Pietri, Vito Acconci, Tehching Hsieh, and Juan Sánchez, forming an anthology of the city's early 1980s poetry and art. Taking Colo's transformation of the book into sculpture and public action as its point of departure, the exhibition brings together cross-generational works from the collection, archival materials, and loans that consider how artists have embraced and reconsidered the book form in response to shared social, political, and environmental concerns.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/octopus-others-acts-of-collaboration-poetics-107894/", "official_url": "", "image": "https://noky.io/images/07ddbcbbc1df9d5a8f67e91706748804769e8cde182f4ea9ddffe03d3f65a832-1200.webp"}, {"title": "Correspondences: de Appel 1975–2025", "start": "2026-11-10T00:00:00-05:00", "end": "2026-11-20T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "Printed Matter Inc.", "address": "11th Avenue 231", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art"], "description": "The New York book launch and opening of an archival display for \"Correspondences: de Appel 1975–2025\", a publication drawing on fifty years of correspondence from the de Appel Archive in Amsterdam.
