This exhibition examines diverse independent artist initiatives — including ad hoc street performances and interventions, clubs, collaboratively produced ‘zines, archives and collections, pirate radio programs, and more. The project also references pronounced divisions of class, race, and gender, with art objects themselves the tangible outcomes of many different conditions of creating, living, and experimenting within the same place. A related publication complements the exhibition with content such as interviews, texts, and images generated through the deep research process, which has unfolded over the past four years. Please join us for the opening reception of Below the Underground on Saturday, October 14 (7-9 pm), featuring a special DJ performance by Sonido Apokalitzin.
