Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat (2017) presents rare footage of the young artist and tells a story of a New York City that may be unrecognizable to some. A part of the ‘70s scene, Director Sarah Driver worked collaboratively with Jim Jarmusch, Fab Five Freddy, Kenny Scharf, and Alexis Adler to tell this intimate story. The screening will be preceded by a short introduction from CAM Executive Director Lisa Melandri. This St. Louis premiere is presented in partnership with St. Louis International Film Festival.
This event is free and open to the public. Please register at camstl.org/calendar.

WE’RE BAAAAACK!!!
Much like the poltergeist from the feature film Poltergeist 2, in person events are back! Because scheduling is scary enough, Silver Space is here to help. Behold, our virtual baby - The Events Calendar - revived by popular demand. Here you can find out when the next gallery opening is, where you can hear free artist talks, and even what you missed out on because you didn’t check the calendar like you should have in the first place. Shame!
If you have an exhibition, event, artist talk, opening, or something tangentially associated, email marinam@silverspacestl.com and we’ll do our best to get you on!
