Scope and Contents

The exhibition was curated by Rodney Phillips and Steven Clay. It documented new and experimental writing in little magazines, many mimeographed and published in Manhattan's East Village or in other places related to this scene. According to the catalogue, these publications fostered "collaborations, community, spontaneity, humor, chance, experimentation, and committment...as basic social and literary values." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
