Art Gangs

Protest and Counterculture in New York City. Art Gangs explores the work of artists groups in New York City after 1968. From the Art Workers Coalition through Art Language, Colab and Group Material in the 1980s, in Soho and the Lower East Side, these collectives built the postmodern art world. This is the key background story of todays politicised international art world with its constellations of collectives, a scholarly text written in an accessible style.
