The exhibition was organized in two sections:1952-1968 and 1968-1994. The catalogue also includes a section of music and cinema, a chronology organized by year and event location and a bibliography. Most of the text consists of interviews of the participants. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
