In conjunction with powerHouse Books’ publication of Vandal Squad: Inside the New York City Transit Police Department, 1984-2004, the powerHouse Arena will host an open forum between former members of New York City’s infamous Vandal Squad and graffiti writers, with the intent of opening discourse on issues regarding the methods that the Squad employs and their impact on the lives of the writers themselves. Panelists include Vandal Squad author Joseph Rivera, former Commanding Officer Lieutenant Steven Mona, original Vandal Squad Lieutenant Ken Chiulli, graffiti legend COPE2, graffiti activist Ket, and street artist ELLIS G. The event will be moderated by Stern Rockwell.

Founded in 1980, the Vandal Squad’s mission was to protect the subway system from hardcore criminal acts of destruction. It was only with the Clean Car Program of 1984 that graffiti became the primary focus of this specialized unit. Using every means available, including the NYPD computer database, search warrants, subpoenas, and even vandals themselves, the Squad had to identify and locate graffiti writers who were often so transient they were referred as “ghosts”. These strategies, as well as concerns about the publication of the book, will be the focus of the conversation. 7-9pm, free. RSVP required.

As dire economic straits trigger institutions to sell big-ticket items in order to raise cash*, The Totam recommends a selection of thrifty events for frugal New Yorkers to attend during the week ahead. There may even be a few items worth dropping some hard-earned dollars upon….

Bradley Peters, Untitled, (mother and son with shopping cart), 2008. c. Bradley Peters

TONIGHT: Bradley Peters‘ Home Theater opens @ Melanie Flood Projects, a salon-style project space doubling as the tasteful Brooklyn apartment of Melanie Flood. Peters, a recent graduate of the Yale School of Art, documents his suburban Nebraskan hometown life in a series of fraught photographic moments reminiscent of Philip Lorca-DiCorcia’s staged images, with the added emotional weight of Peters’ personal connection to his subjects. Curated by Amani Olu. FREE, 7-10pm, RSVP required.

Thursday, January 29th: Stahl vs. Sirk @ the Anthology Film Archives. Anthology presents some of celebrated director Douglas Sirk’s finest melodramas alongside John M.

• Friday, January 30th: Opening reception for the inaugural exhibit of Kris Graves Projects in DUMBO; featuring the work of photographer Eric Hairabedian and artist Peter Mallo. Like Peters, Hairabedian’s photographs are set in unidealized middle-class environs, but his stark examination of his subjects, mostly members of his family, comes closer to the iconographic, subtly bleak portraiture of photographers like Gillian Laub. The shapes and shades in Mallo’s new Soft Black drawing series recalls the delicate, enigmatic pencilwork recently seen in Gino De Dominicis’ survey at PS 1. 6-9pm. FREE

(The gallery will have excellently priced (we are talking $10-$40 here!) 11×14″ and postcard-portfolio limited editions on hand for the budget-minded collector.)

• Tuesday, February 3rd: Joy Dragland with St. Cloud @ Pete’s Candy Store, 9pm. Don’t miss St. Cloud’s monthlong residency every Tuesday night in February; Dragland’s enveloping, always-sympathetic voice carries her listeners along a winding journey of musings on subjects as varied as the Mona Lisa, sisters, homesickness, and cocaine escapism. FREE
