In 2011 I am making bi-monthly publications after my 2010 monthly series monthly series of zines across many formats and collaborations incorporating my source material and recent drawings.

In 2010 I made a publication a month that culminated in the exhibition Negative Litanies at Western Exhibitions

From 2004 - 2007 I created issues of "The Future Belongs to Ghosts", a zine I made in small editions as collections of my drawings. The older issues 1-4 contained drawings from past issues of Goleta, CA based hardcore zine HeartattaCk. Issue 5 was created to exhibit the shift in my drawings from the zine to combine with drawings from videos. Issue 6 containes video still and drawings from an entire set by Antioch Arrow, and Issue 7 contains drawings and photographs of amplifiers. In all issues I have invited other individuals involved at different levels in the punk community to write about memories and/or current strategies for Doing it Yourself.

January 14 to February 19, 2011

Every month in 2010 Hannum produced a new zine, each one taking a different format, maximizing the possibilities of the cheaply printed page. He achieves remarkable textures, surfaces and images through seemingly simple combinations of toner on white, black and gray papers. Every subsequent zine ups the ambition from the prior one, as Hannum experiments with color xeroxes, collaborations (with New York artist Scott Treleaven and Chicagoan Elijah Burgher), vellum, sealed wax covers, obi bands and mini-CDs. Hannum pushes the zine to its extremes, much like the extreme sonic scenes he’s documenting and influenced by.

NEW RITES @ The Richard E. Peeler Art Center / DePauw University

September 22 – December 10, 2010

Terence Hannum's paintings, drawings and video installations employ the imagery and rituals of underground music subcultures as a means of exploring the transcendence and impermanence of sound and performance, and the group catharsis experienced by those who surrender to them.

As a part of the exhibition Terence's new zine for the month of September Acts of Contrition will be made available at the opening.
