Coenties Slip: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Forever

In the 1950s and 60s, Coenties Slip - an obscure little street at the lower tip of Manhattan overlooking the East River - was home to a group of extraordinary, then-struggling artists: Robert Indiana, Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, James Rosenquist, Delphine Seyrig, Lenore Tawney, and Jack Youngerman. For just over a decade, this cobblestone street of dilapidated warehouses would serve as the unlikely site of eclectic and influential works of art and spark a singular moment of community and creativity. In her new group biography The Slip (Harper Collins), Prudence Peiffer, Director of Content at the Museum of Modern Art, pays homage to the locale that inspired this remarkable group of artists and captures a singular moment of time and place that changed the course of American art.
