- On the occasion of Phaidon's publication of artist and musician David Byrne’s "A History of the World (in Dingbats)," Pace Live and Phaidon present an in-person conversation between Byrne and documentary filmmaker John Wilson, whose comedy docuseries "How To with John Wilson" can be streamed on HBO.
The discussion coincides with Byrne's solo exhibition "How I Learned About Non-Rational Logic," on view at Pace Gallery in New York from February 2 through March 19, 2022, as well as "Twenty-One Humors," an online exhibition featuring a range of artists, including Byrne, who employ humor throughout their practice.
Focusing on logic's unpredictable nature and the ways that drawings can convey humor and shared experiences, the conversation will be held within Byrne's exhibition at Pace and livestreamed on UA-cam.

This is so awkward I love it
As a painfully socially awkward person it’s great to see beautifully awkward people who have both made incredible art
What an absolute creative genius and inspiration for all.

I don’t think ‘anti-woke’ is the label that applies to the comics the moderator is talking about in the Q&A. The best of ‘those’ kind of comics are making jokes about the excesses of woke/PC culture. Whenever the pendeulim swings in some direction it’s usually too far, and needs to find an equilibrium. One way to point out the excess, especially when it’s all so tribal, is comedy. The best comics working in the city aren’t ‘concerning right-of-center’ people (like Seth Simons wants you to believe) but are the court jesters telling the emperor to put some pants on.
