Art Attacks: A Roundtable on Art, Punk, and the Queen West Scene of the '70s & '80s (with David Clarkson, G. B. Jones & Don Pyle)

A free roundtable event marking OCAD U 150 and the 50th anniversary of punk's first wave in Toronto.

Join us for Art Attacks: A Roundtable on Art, Punk, and the Queen West Scene of the '70s & '80s aims to explore the role of Canada’s oldest art school in the underground music that emerged here alongside scenes in London and New York.

Artist, programmer, and OCAD U alum Tara Bursey (BFA, Criticism & Curatorial Practice, 2013) moderates a conversation with David Clarkson (The Diodes), GB Jones (Fifth Column, J.D.s Zine), and Don Pyle (Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, Crash Kills Five) about the downtown Queen West scene, what followed, and its relationship to art education.
