Identifier: CC-10803-11013
Scope and Contents

This exhibition documented the photographs of Samo graffiti which appeared in lower Manhatten in 1977-1978. Subsequently it became known that they were the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Al Diaz. The premise of these slogans/poems was that Samo was a brand name drug which provided salvation to those who would take it. This catalogue also mentions that Flynt's work is in the collection of Ruth & Marvin Sackner. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
