within an old industrial warehouse. It was in this context that a group of artists, dissidents, and bohemians decided to open their oversized
metal doors to serve brunch and facilitate experimental creativity. And so, Gracie’s Birdcage was born.
This volume brings together some of the publications that came out of this social laboratory durings its few shorts years of existence.
