bunbun: Bande à part New York Underground 60’s, 70’s, 80’s Photo exhibition

Godlis, Patti Smith, 1977

Agnes b.將舊影藝改成展覧廳，有時間去睇吓啦！
“Bande à part” presents a cross view of 11 photographers on the New York underground scene from the late 60’s to the mid80’s, featuring those who originated the creative effervescence which shook the artistic, musical and literary scene during the 2 decades that separate Counter Culture from No-Wave. Through the 180 photographs presented, the 11 photographers deliver from the inside the rare and precious testimony of the actors and agitators, be they famous or anonymous, of the New York underground which still influences today’s bands and artists. By extension, they offer a privileged point of view on the icons and myths which have founded our actual pop culture, that keeps quoting and recycling itself infinitely.
“Bande à part” is at the same time pop and punk, hippie and disco, punk-rock and glam-rock, it’s an exhibition about excess, about attitude, about sex, drugs
and Rock’n Roll, and finally -and maybe mostly- about New York City.
