SEE: THE BOOM IS REAL AT MAYSLES CINEMA
Wednesday, May 2nd, 7:30PM-10:00PM, The Boom is Real at Maysles Cinema, 343 Lenox Avenue by 127th Street. Using unique archive footage, interviews with insiders and an exceptional soundtrack that tells a story all its own, Boom for Real outlines how the effervescent scene in 1970s and 1980s New York contributed to the formation of young, enigmatic artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. The insiders include big names such as filmmaker Jim Jarmusch, Hip Hop impresario Fab 5 Freddy, and graffiti artist Lee Quiñones. They relate how Basquiat built a bridge between the era of Andy Warhol and art forms such as graffiti, hip hop, rap, breakdance and punk rock that were emerging in run-down, drug-infested New York—in particular in the artistic enclave around SoHo.
