"Bukowski's L.A." Exhibit
Male
“Male,” an exhibition of works drawn from the personal collection of curator, writer and photography critic Vince Aletti, premiered earlier this year at White Columns, New York, and was recently featured at Presentation House Gallery, Vancouver.
An interview with Aletti by Amarie Bergman is currently on the front cover of Whitehot Magazine and in its section devoted to Vancouver art exhibitions.

The Man Game
Lee Henderson’s first novel, The Man Game, is a mix of hardcore wrestling, dance, and gravity-defying special moves drawn from button-mashing video games like Mortal Kombat. To help readers understand the intricacies of this imaginary sport, Henderson teamed up with animator Isaac “The King” King to create short clips which illustrate five of the moves described in the novel.

The Man Game was favourably reviewed in the National Post by Mark Medley, "Rolling With Punches." Henderson will be heading out on a book tour this fall. He'll appear as part of Word on the Street in Vancouver on September 28; Wordfest in Calgary on October 14 to 19; and Vancouver International Writers Festival on October 24 and 25.
