About the event

Wild Style (1983). Directed by Charlie Ahearn. Starring Lee Quinones, Patti Astor, Lady Pink, Fab 5 Freddy. 

A touchstone for hip-hop cinema, Wild Style helped introduce the nation to the beat that was taking over the Bronx and would eventually become a global cultural force. Following a crew of young graffiti writers, Ahearn captures the DIY creative wellspring that would go on to inspire generations.Today, WILD STYLE remains vital and exuberant in its joyous depiction of a burgeoning cultural moment, featuring iconic scenes including Double Trouble’s ‘Stoop Rap,’ the basketball throwdown between the Cold Crush Brothers and the Fantastic Freaks, and the culminating all-star festival in the East River Park.

Stations of the Elevated (1981). Directed by Manfred Kirchheimer. The first ever filmed document of graffiti, this richly chromatic 16mm tone poem sets images of the Bronx, Manhattan, and Brooklyn to a soundtrack…
