Producer / Creator Stuart S. Shapiro writes: "Thirty-five years have passed since I embarked on this wild cinematic journey capturing the artistic underbelly of New York City - a celebration of the unique characters and raw energy that defined a unique era of the 1980’s. This Collector's Edition of the Mondo New York features a new transfer from the original negative and an enhanced soundtrack. It is a tribute to the audacious spirit of New York City and the vibrant subcultures that called it home. After years of Night Flight being my censored center of the Cult Universe, I felt it was important to take off all the creative leashes of Cable TV, and film the real underbelly of Art in New York City. Mondo New York is that time capsule of the Performance Art World of Mutant Creativity Unabashed and Uncensored. As you journey through Mondo New York, prepare to be immersed in a timeless world of underground performance art, where the ordinary dissolves into the extraordinary, capturing a moment in time when artists, misfits, and visionaries converged to create a landscape of boundless creativity and unapologetic self-expression and push the artistic expression of what is Art as far as possible."
