The New York Surrealist Group and the American Anarchist group provided the basis for Black Mask, a radical artistic/political group who produced some ten issues of a powerful broadsheet and a number of politico-artistic demonstrations, like attempting to close down the Museum of Modern Art. Led by Ben Morea and the poet Dan Georgiakis, Black Mask finally transformed itself into a totally dedicated underground group, Up Against The Wall Motherfuckers, a number of whose members have been imprisoned for their activities.
