Walt Cassidy (artist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walt Cassidy (artist)
Walt Cassidy, born in Los Alamitos California, is a New York City-based artist, notable for his contemporary art, and participation in the New York City Club Kids culture. His explorative art emphasizes narrative abstraction, aestheticism, and conceptualism.〔John E. Mitchell, "Following the Ritual," North Adams Transcript, May 2007〕 =="Walt Paper"==
Throughout the 1990s, Walt Cassidy (then called Walt Paper) was at the center of the New York City Club Kids, an artistic and fashion-conscious youth culture. The group was a definitive force in New York City's underground club culture at the time and made long-lasting contributions to mainstream art and fashion. According to Cassidy, "The nightclub for me was like a laboratory, a place where you were encouraged and rewarded for experimentation."〔Smith, Raven. (Ed.). (2008). ''Club Kids: From Speakeasies to Boombox and Beyond''. London, UK: Black Dog Publishing〕 Cassidy founded the band BOOB (1995–98), a conceptual hardcore rock band composed of various club kids that began amidst the infamous Peter Gatien-owned nightclubs—Limelight, Tunnel, Palladium, and Club USA—as well as downtown venues CBGB and Don Hills. The band was known for their elaborate and over-the-top image which sought to challenge gender social norms during the growing conservatism of Rudy Giuliani's "Quality of Life" campaign in New York City.
