Paul Booth presents "The Grand Reincarnation"

Paul Booth decided it was time to renovate his office of dark arts known as "Last Rites & Tattoo Theatre" because he wanted to push his artistic abilities to the next level, and to make his tattoo shop/gallery/theatre even more twisted and demented. "The Grand Reincarnation" will be taking place on July 22nd, 23rd and 24th at 511 West 33rd Street (3rd Floor) in New York City.

Here is the rundown of the events that will take place this weekend at Paul Booth's "Last Rites & Tattoo Theatre".

- Saturday July 23rd:

The second evening to our weekend is when we drop the black curtains and launch the all new Tattoo Theatre area of our space. Not only is this another chance to take in the art of ChetZar and Craig Larotonda, but on this special night you can truly soak in the entire Last Rites experience. To really bring it home, appearing on our new performance stage, we have two of our favorite partners in crime making a special appearance: Jamie Kilstein, our favorite stand up comedian (you may have seen him on Conan O’ Brian), totally uncensored! Making a special trip all the way from Budapest, Attila Csihar, vocalist from the infamous Norwegian Black Metal band Mayhem, will present his solo dark ambient project VOID OV VOICES. Together, these two artists truly represent the driving force of Last Rites philosophy. Along with a strolling funerary violinist… you truly do not want to miss this! See below for more information about the special guests.

- Sunday July 24th:

Sunday brings a great time to wind things down as we bring great painterly talent together from our family of artists to paint live at Last Rites. This is a great opportunity to witness these masters bring their stunning creations to life right before your eyes. Feel free to mingle and soak in an immense degree of creative energy and artistic inspiration.

- Artists for Sunday's live painting event include:

Shawn Barber, Kim Saigh, Chet Zar, Genevive Zacconi, Angie Mason, Fred Harper, Billy Norrby, Matt Rota, Martin Wittfooth, Paul Booth, The ArtFusion Experiment and more!

- Saturday's Special Guests:

- Jamie Kilstein:

“Hilarious and scathing.” - Rolling Stone Magazine

“Jamie Kilstein is a doofus.” - Glenn Beck

“There are few truly insightful, passionate and hysterically funny political comedians around, and even fewer coming out of the States. New Yorker Jamie Kilstein is a shining light probing into the murkier corners of the religious right and corrupt politics of his homeland. Funny and penetrating, he’s taken Bill Hicks’ baton and run with it.” - Time Out London

- Attila Csihar:

Void Of Voices is the solo Dark Ambient project of Budapest, Hungary based vocalist Attila Csihar. Since 1992, Attila has been the lead vocalist in the influential Norwegian Black Metal band Mayhem and since 2004 he has been the permanent guest vocalist for the doom/drone Metal band Sunn O))). Csihar states the concept behind Void Ov Voice is to use “only my voice as an instrument via a loop machine and effects”; through this process Csihar creates some of the most haunting Dark atmosphere and Ritualistic chants that could likely raise the Hordes from the depths of Hell itself. His main goal with Void Ov Voices is to play live shows where the visual aspects and live experience is sure to enhance the overall effect.

This series of events are not to be missed by any fans of the dark arts!
