Downtown Pop Underground
In the 1960s and early 1970s in Lower Manhattan, a tight-knit community of theatrical performers, playwrights, poets, musicians, video-makers, visual artists, activists, and gender rebels began smashing the status quo of American culture. This project takes a kaleidoscopic tour of the deeply interconnected alternative worlds and personalities that flourished in the city during this period.
