Toxic Pop Video Archive

About this original series

The Toxic Pop Video Archive project is an attempt to create an online video library of the New York City performance art scene from the early 90's through the present. With the help of such venues as Surf Reality and the Bowery Poetry Club - as well as through the contributions of the artists themselves, our goal is to create a single repository of performance video from the NYC "art star" performance scene. Please visit www.toxicpop.com for more info, or if you would like to contribute to the project.
