Description:
Companion to a 2006 exhibit of works by "a loose-knit group of American artists, many just out of their teens, [who] began [in the 1990s] creating art that reflected their lifestyles. ... [including] underground youth subcultures of the day -- skateboarding, graffiti, street fashion and independent music." Includes a virtual tour of the exhibit and images of works by Basquiat, Robert Crumb, Margaret Kilgallen, and others. In English and Italian.
