Author, curator and legendary publicist Bill Adler recently revealed that several items from his vast collection of Hip Hop artifacts are on display at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City. Barbara London’s “Looking At Music” series, presently dedicated to 1980s music culture in the city, includes artifacts and visual references to Public Enemy, Afrika Bambaataa and Run-DMC.
According to his blog on MoMA’s website, the items came from Adler’s personal collection. Throughout the ’00s, Bill owned and operated the Eyejammie Gallery in Midtown Manhattan. He has also written an authorized biography on Run-DMC, Tougher Than Leather.
