A collection of memories from the earliest years of the Clocktower Gallery, by the artists, gallerists, and cultural players who helped shape it, including Vito Acconci, Ann Magnuson, Richard Nonas, Jeffrey Deitch, and Mary Heilmann.
Stories, projects, exhibitions, and performances by the artists who occupy AIR's legendary space, the Clocktower Gallery, founded in 1972 by AIR Director and visionary Alanna Heiss.
Sculptor Richard Nonas describes how he, Alanna Heiss, and a group of fearless artists turned abandoned, rundown basements into exhibition spaces, and wrote the early history of what would become the alternative spaces movement.
