Scope and Contents

This color poster promotes a day that was performed in different urban and inner city communities. There is a distance from the older images favored by DIVEDCO which focused largely on the countryside. This scene is set in an urban environment with the performers dressed in distinctly modern clothing and playing electrified musical instruments. (From exhibition text by Marvette Perez.)
