A group photography show celebrating the lost but not forgotten DIY spaces of Brooklyn, NY.
The DIY music scene in Brooklyn is a constantly changing landscape; venues
open and close in the blink of an eye. Brooklyn has been hit particularly hard recently with the closing of
some long-standing institutions like Death by Audio and Glasslands.
Some will rise from the ashes to create new spaces and new identities,
but most will simply fade away, taking with them opportunities for creativity and
community.
Twenty photographers come together to create a visual eulogy for this time, space and community. Featuring images from 285 Kent, Big Snow Buffalo Lodge, Dead
Herring, Death By Audio, Fitness, Glasshouse, Glasslands, Ho_se,
Monster Island, Original Silent Barn, Party Expo, The Glass Door, The
Shank Goodbye Blue Monday, Original location Secret Project Robot and The Woodser.
