Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) is pleased to co-present an online video program component of the exhibition DOWNTOWN 2021, featuring works by Peggy Ahwesh, Charles Atlas, K8 Hardy, Sky Hopinka, Kalup Linzy, and Jacob Robichaux.

DOWNTOWN 2021 is presented by LaMaMa Galleria and curated by Sam Gordon. The exhibition takes its name from the film Downtown 81, which portrayed a day in the New York City of 1981 in all its glory. Forty years later, the exhibition acts as a sequel to the film, taking inspiration from downtown as an idea, a state of mind, and a generative space—rather than just a geographic location—and extending its scope beyond Manhattan to galleries in Brooklyn and Queens—and online.
