NY Art Scene: East Village to LES: from Makeshift to Fine Art Gallery
The emerging East Village art scene of the 1980s invented new forms of cultural and economic linkages between the avant garde and urban space.

This rapid growth and decline may be accounted for by the international wave of art speculation and investment that was fueled largely by the profits from the finance and producer services growth sector. The increasing national and international media spotlight on East Village…
