Max’s Kansas City: Retrospective
Max’s Kansas City was the place to be in the late 60s and 70s. There were several incarnations of the famed rock and roll supper club. Max I was full of influential artists, writers, and poets; while at Max’s II, you could check out the Cramps, Klaus Nomi, Suicide, Talking Heads, and hang out with Bowie and Devo. Check out the retrospective show at the Steven Kasher Gallery in New York until October 16.
