This catalog accompanies the Gordon Kurtti Project, an exhibition at Participant Inc, curated by Carl George of Allied Productions.

Gordon Stokes Kurtti produced a brief yet concentrated burst of artistic output in the early ‘80s before his life was cut short by HIV/AIDS. This exhibition is the first to collect his drawings and paintings, as well as his work in film, performance, and poetry, tracing Kurtti’s lasting impact on the East Village art scene.

The catalog includes essays by Cynthia Carr and fellow Allied members Jack Waters, Peter Cramer, and Carl George.
