“Story Time w/ Lard”
A 41st Birthday Pop-Up Reading
@ChargingBull | June 24 | 8AM

Lard is stampeding into Manhattan with a birthday surprise for the rush hour crowd. In front of the iconic Charging Bull, he’ll recite an excerpt from the first draft of his forthcoming memoir: The Making of Lard—a collection of fragments—an offering of raw reflections from his mythic mind to Wall Street wolves.

If the Charging Bull is a mirror of market inspiration, then Lard is its counterpoint: a live-wire reflection of Financial Domination. Charging in real time to declare:

ARTIST WORK IS WORK.

Driving from his volcano in East Atlanta Village, GA (#Hotlanta) to Bowling Green NYC, Lard arrives not as a man but a tsunami—a quantum poet, spewing intellectual fire inspired by Plato’s Book X, capitalism, chaos, and inheritance.

Talk about next-level hustle.

This is self-funded performance art in its purest form. Lard blends business with myth to troll and transcend the legacy of his father, Dr. Pentti Kouri—Finnish economist, venture capitalist, art collector, and infamous SoHo legend.

Lard doesn’t just practice what he preaches. He lives it.

Show up, tune in, and witness the beginning of a new market cycle:
