Editorial Reviews

Review

"On that night with no audience, Anohni and her collaborator The Psychotic Eve decided to deliver their performances all the same, setting the precedent for an event that pandered to no one, characterised by defiance and a dedication to beauty set on their own resolutely queer terms...Blacklips’ aesthetic was spitting and hissing with rage, but the night was also fuelled by an unusually serious dedication to original art."

- iD



“The book’s 472 pages of subcultural excavation are part punk zine, part queer avant-garde history, a testament to cross-generational solidarity as the AIDS crisis persisted. Long before she achieved international renown, Anohni and her cohort fortified themselves against a brutally inadequate world by creating their own.” - New York Times T Magazine

“[Blacklips: Her Life and Her Many, Many Deaths] assemble scripts, photographs, lyrics, flyers, diary entries, video stills, and other ephemera―a full-color, full-bleed visual feast that recreates the visceral experience of a Blacklips play.” - Artnet


"The thousands of photographs [Blacklips: Her Life and Her Many, Many Deaths] reprints vibrate with the performers’ deconstructive intelligence and destructive glee.” - Surface

About the Author

ANOHNI is a visual artist, musician, and playwright who spent her twenties performing music and staging plays in late-night clubs and experimental theaters in New York City. She formed her music group Antony and the Johnsons—named in memory of trans activist Marsha P. Johnson—in 1998. After releasing the group’s self-titled first record in 2000 and touring around the world with Lou Reed as a backup singer, her second album I Am a Bird Now (2005) was awarded the Mercury Prize in the UK. ANOHNI has since released The Crying Light (2008), Swanlights (2009), the live album Cut the World (2012), TURNING (film and live album, 2014) and HOPELESSNESS (2016), a collaboration with Hudson Mohawke and Daniel Lopatin. She curated the 2012 Meltdown Festival at the Southbank in London, and has performed her music with symphonies in venues including the Royal Opera House in London, Teatro Royale in Madrid, Sydney Opera House, the Olympia in Paris, and Carnegie Hall and Radio City Music Hall. ANOHNI’s visual installations, performances, and plays have been presented by institutions including Kunsthal Nikolaj in Copenhagen, Bielefeld Kunsthalle in Germany, MoMA, the Whitney Museum, The Kitchen NYC, Aarhus 2017 Capital of Culture, and the Barbican. ANOHNI is affiliated with Sikemma Jenkins gallery in NYC. ANOHNI was musical director for Robert Wilson’s “The Life and Death of Marina Abramovic” and scored Valentino’s Spring collection presentation “Anatomy of Couture” in Milan in February 2022. She has appeared as a guest on recordings by artists including Laurie Anderson, Bjork, and Yoko Ono. ANOHNI is artist advisor to The Holland Festival in 2023. 


Marti Wilkerson is a New York–based photographer and performance artist.  Her photos have been exhibited at PARTICIPANT, INC. NYC, in the group show Dead Flowers (2010) and published in such books as NY Rock by Steven Blush (St. Martin's Press, 2016) and Live Suburbia! by Max G. Morton (powerHouse, 2011). She is the vocalist and lyricist of Beaut, a musical collaboration with electric guitarist Paul Twinkle. Beaut have played Rubulad Bushwick's For Jack Terricloth (2021), MoMA PS 1 in Songs of Ruin (2010), at New Museum for Brion Gysin Dream Machine (2010) and with Breyer P-Orridge in A Candy Cabaret (1999-2009).
