In collaboration with White Box, 2feet12inches presents its second group show OUTLAW paying homage to both the famous and the nameless figures who have played a role in making New York City the epicenter of all that was cool in the world. This is still evident in today's music, art and fashion inspired by squatters, punks, skaters, people with 'real jobs' and their dealers, artists, DJs, musicians, and party promoters. The works in the show re-capture the spirit of downtown New York City art, music, and nightlife scene of the late '80's into the early '90's when infamous outlaw parties were symbolic of our city and the way we lived our lives.
DJs: Jazzy Nice, Jonny Santos, Julie Covello, Sal Principato, Shorty, Small Change, Steve Lewis and more...
