"This book captures the insurgent, unconventional, pioneering art activities and history of the legendary Rivington School, a large gang of street artists, sculptors, welders, performers, noise bands, trouble makers and Neoists who took over abandoned lots and buildings in New York's Lower East Side in the 80s and turned them into junk gardens, welding workshops and performance spaces. All the articles in this book were written by Rivington School artists themselves, among them Ray Kelly, Toyo Tsuchiya, Monty Cantsin, Michael Carter, James Love Cornwell IV aka Jim C, EF Higgins III, Victoria Alexander, Angel Eyedealism, Julius Klein, Krzysztof Zarebski, Phil Rostek, Robert Parker, Shalom Neuman, Ingrid Andresen Lindfors, Gloria McLlean, John Ittner, Maggie Reilly, Linus Coraggio, Clayton Patterson, Andrea Legge, Mark Brennan, Andre Laredo, Ken Hiratsuka, FA-Q aka Kevin Wendell, and assembled by Rivington School spokesman Monty Cantsin aka Istvan Kantor in collaboration with Toyo Tsuchiya, photographer."--
