*POP Talks: Conversations on Art & Culture (Monday, Feb. 22, 6-7:30)*


*CONEY ISLAND FABLES: The Films of Vagabond*


What is more Pop than Coney Island? From Joseph Stella to Lawrence
Ferlinghetti, artists have long found a pop muse in the amusements of Coney
Island.


In this Zoom screening and discussion (with Pop for the People curator M.I.
Devine), the indie filmmaker and artist Vagabond will speak about Coney
Island, and its place in his series of short films Coney Island Fables.


Brooklyn born and borough raised, Vagabond began his career in film working
on Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing and has gone on to create works
addressing topics such as the Puerto Rican Diaspora (Machetero) and the
Nuyorican poets (All Roads Lead to the Fire Escape). A multidisciplinary
Pop artist, Vagabond has created murals, posters, pamphlets, and political
art in conjunction with the Ricanstruction Netwerk.
