The original Nova Convention was held to honor William S. Burroughs in the fall of 1978 at the Entermedia Theater in New York City. Seventeen years and 361days later, the convention will be revisited at 7:30 tonight at the Lied Center.
The Nova Convention Revisited: William S. Burroughs and the Arts is a performance art dedication to a man who was a prime mover for the Beat Generation movement.
The Lied Center's presentation is in collaboration with the Spencer Museum of Art's Ports of Entry exhibit that features visual art both in tribute to and by Burroughes. The exhibit will continue through Jan. 5.
Burroughs, 82, has been a Lawrence resident since 1981.
"This is not an attempt to validate Mr. Burroughs as an artist or his work," said Lane Czaplinski, Lied Center program assistant and co-producer of the convention. "This is a chance for his friends to show their fondness for him in a public setting."
Many of Burroughs' colleagues and friends will participate in the Nova Convention. Patti Smith, Deborah Harry, Philip Glass, Laurie Anderson, Ed Sanders and Lenny Kaye will perform with videos, slide shows and spoken word between their acts.
Karen Christilles, director of public relations for the Lied Center said those would not be the only performers.
"Burroughs will definitely be in attendance and anear on stage," she said.
The artists are receiving a small honorarium for their performance, Czaplinski said. However, the amount is minimal compared to the artist fees they otherwise could command.
VH-1 will be in Lawrence to tape portions of the program for a story the channel's news team is doing on Burroughs. The New York Times also will cover the event.
Student tickets still are available for $22.50 and $17.50. Tickets for the general public are $30 and $25. They can be purchased at all three of the KU box offices and through TicketMaster.
