No Wave (modern North American, modern American, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: North American avant-garde movement in music and cinema. The term is rarely extended to painting and sculpture. The movement was peculiar to New York City, specifically the Lower East Side ca. 1978-1981. The music is characterized by harsh dissonance, unstudied musicianship, and the aggressive attitudes of its performers. Musicians and visual artists often appeared as actors in films, usually fictional narratives shot with Super 8 sound film.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Noord-Amerikaanse avant-gardestroming op het gebied van de muziek en de film en in mindere mate de schilder- en beeldhouwkunst. Het centrum van deze stroming, die tussen circa 1978 en 1981 heeft bestaan, bevond zich in New York, in de Lower East Side. De muziek wordt gekenmerkt door schrille dissonanten, ongeschoolde muziekbeoefening en een agressieve uitstraling van de uitvoerende kunstenaars. De musici en beeldende kunstenaars verschenen vaak als acteur in hun eigen films, doorgaans fictieve verhalen die met Super 8-geluidsfilm zijn opgenomen.
