Phoebe
Legere
hosting
the Acker
Awards
Once again multidisciplinary artist and wonder Phoebe Legere has been tapped to host and emcee the Acker Awards. Named after the experimental novelist, playwright, essayist, and postmodernist writer Kathy Acker, Clayton Patterson created the award in 2014 to “embrace the whole spectrum” of downtown avant-garde creators. Each recipient of the Acker receives a box which contains a contribution from each of the winners, as well as a pair of posters designed by other award winners .
Cool Phoebe Legere

American Art, a nonprofit
