NEW MUSEUM
NYC 1993
Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star
Edited by Massimiliano Gioni, Gary Carrion-Murayari, Jenny Moore, Margot Norton.
NYC 1993 looks at art made and exhibited in New York over the course of one year, providing a synchronic panorama in which established artists and emerging figures of the time are presented alongside the work of authors whose influence has since faded from the discussion. Centering on the year 1993, NYC 1993 is conceived as an experiment in collective memory that captures a specific moment at the intersection of art, pop culture and politics. The book draws its subtitle from the eponymous album that Sonic Youth recorded in 1993 and exemplifies exchange between mainstream and underground culture across disciplines, which came to define the art of the era. The exhibition included historical reconstructions of important installations and exhibitions from 1993, while other works were revisited and reinterpreted from the vantage point of today--highlighting the ways in which certain actions, events, attitudes and emotions reverberate toward the present.

The much talked-about "NYC 1993" exhibition at the New Museum earlier this year addressed what happened after the economy and art market crashed at the end of the 1980s, and a diverse group of theretofore unrecognized artists entered the mainstream. Twenty years after the politically charged 1993 Whitney Biennial, the show gave a fresh take on that pivotal point of departure for American art, and this accompanying catalogue serves as a time capsule of the still-relevant period.
