A groundbreaking cultural history of 1960s New York, from the legendary writer on art and film
A groundbreaking cultural history of 1960s New York, from the legendary writer on art and film
Like Paris in the 1920s, New York City in the 1960s was a cauldron of avant-garde ferment and artistic innovation. Boundaries were transgressed and new forms created. Drawing on interviews, memoirs, and the alternative press, Everything Is Now chronicles this collective drama as it was played out in coffeehouses, bars, lofts, storefront theaters, and, ultimately, the streets. The principals here include Amiri Baraka, Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Carolee Schneemann, Andy Warhol, and many more. Their art, rooted in the detritus and excitement of urban life, was taboo breaking and confrontational. As J. Hoberman shows in this riveting history, these subcultures coalesced into a counterculture that changed the city, the country, and the world.
