From May 1979 to January of 1987, the East Village Eye, a monthly magazine of popular and avant garde culture, exerted a profound influence that eventually reached across the entire world. Coverage in the Eye resulted in development of several key "scenes" that eventually evolved into movements felt all over the planet. Some credit the Eye with creating the East Village art scene, which nurtured legendary talents such as Keith Haring and David Wojnarowicz, while the Eye's coverage of other emerging New York artists such as Sue Coe, Barbara Kruger and Kiki Smith helped illuminate the psychosocial conflicts running through the contemporary brain. Many such artists made work specifically for publication in the Eye. When hip hop started to emerge from the ghettoes of New York, the Eye was there with early stories on historical figures like Afrikaa Bambaataa, Fab Five Freddy, Futura 2000, Run DMC, the Rock Steady Crew and many others. How early? East Village Eye was the first publication ever to define the term "hip hop," in our January 1982 issue, though our coverage of graffiti and other elements of hip hop actually started a year earlier. Seminal avant garde writers including Richard Hell, whose "Slum Journal" explained the New York origins of punk; Cookie Mueller, who dished out bold and often hilarious health advice; Glenn O'Brien, the leading avant-pop writer and media figure who chose the Eye to expound on the New York Yankees and other essential sports matters; and the aforementioned David Wojnarowicz, who wrote about his harrowing past and present as a street hustler and later as an artist living with HIV."
