Overview

This is the origin story of Nashville's surging contemporary art scene told by the ones who were there before anyone else. Not a story about commercial spaces or official institutions--this is the story of moldy warehouse studios and improvised galleries, happy-kegger after-parties and front lawn art sales, exhibitions in apartment living rooms and secret art displays hidden in plain sight.

Nowville is an oral history of the Nashville art scene beginning in the 1990s. Author Joe Nolan tracks down the city's art punks, art monks, radical art students, and visionary pioneers to share what made their moments in Nashville so special. He also offers insights into how this homespun movement powered by DIY innovating came to be a thriving creative community and a cornerstone of the city's contemporary allure.
