PHOEBE LEGERE's MONAD, a legendary trailblazer of the East Village scene, was proud to be a featured performance band at A's, 330 Broome Street. A's was created and curated by Arleen Schloss.
While Phoebe and her band Monad were dubbed the "best looking band in New York City" by New York magazine, Phoebe and Monad were more focused on creating a superior level of performance art they dubbed "Total Art Synthesis."
Arleen Schloss born in Brooklyn, New York is a North American performance artist, video/film artist, sound poet, director and curator of the Lower Manhattan art, video, performance art and music scenes. Schloss began through A's – an interdisciplinary loft space that became a hub for music, exhibitions, performance art, films and videos. In the 1990s A's became A's Wave where website works and other forms of digital media were shown.
Concurrently with A's, Schloss established herself as a curator, co-organizing shows at Danceteria and The Storefront of Art and Architecture, now an architectural venue in New York.
Schloss operated as a performance artist in the 1970s. The New York Times stated that her performances were "superior to much performance art,” and the SoHo Weekly News noted that her voice was "musical the way Patti Smith and Yoko Ono are musical." (from Wikipedia)
