SUMMARY:HOTGLUE Pop Up Reading & Launch featuring Waltpaper with special introduction by Dianne Brill (in person & live-streaming)
DESCRIPTION:The Bureau of General Services—Queer Division invites you to join us for a very special Pop Up Reading & Launch for MORNING WHISPERS\, the first installment of HOTGLUE\, a new fiction series by celebrated artist and author\, Waltpaper\, who will be introduced by fashion and nightlife icon\, Dianne Brill. \nHOTGLUE explores the subcultural evolution of Generation X through the intimate stories of a gang of friends who meet at art school in 1990. As they move across multiple decades\, drug\, music and fashion trends shift their perception of themselves\, each other and New York City. \nSet against the backdrop of a raging nightlife turf war between Club Kids\, Drag Queens and Transgender Voguers\, MORNING WHISPERS introduces Hope Glennon\, aka Hotglue\, a gender queer street artist turned Club Kid\, and their troubled but comical nightlife mentor\, Sugar Skullz\, on the morning after an apocalyptic night of clubbing. Their relationship dynamic and lifestyle is juxtaposed to Clarissa\, an elaborate female fantasy creature that Hotglue is building on their balcony at The Dot\, a run down bohemian residential hotel. \n  \nThis event will take place in person at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division\, on the second floor (room 210) of The LGBT Community Center\, 208 W. 13th St.\, NYC\, 10011. \n\n\nRegistration is not required. Seating is first come\, first served. \n\nAlso live-streaming on the Bureau’s YouTube channel: \nyoutube.com/@bgsqd \n  \nThe Bureau will solicit donations at the beginning of the event—we especially encourage donations from those who do not plan to purchase any books. \nAll are welcome to attend\, with or without a donation. \n\nWe will pass a bag for donations at the start of the event\, but we can also take credit card donations at the register or on Venmo @BGSQD \n\n\n  \nWaltpaper is an author and interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn\, New York. As a subcultural diarist\, his explorative and allegorical work is rooted in first hand experiences with interlocking themes of identity\, gender\, sexuality\, drugs\, trauma and healing. He has published the books\, NEW YORK: CLUB KIDS and THE CLUB KIDS\, and is considered one of the foremost voices on New York City’s vibrant nightlife\, art and street culture. \n  \nDianne Brill is a renowned American fashion icon\, model\, author and television personality. Celebrated for her influential role in New York City’s nightlife scene of the 1980s and 1990s. She was deemed “Queen of the Night” and became the muse to a number of top designers and photographers\, noted for her extravagant\, avant-garde style and magnetic personality.
