Some say 90ties were the best for Prague. The Bohemian capital took full advantage of the newly found freedom that arrived with the dawn of communism in 1989. Unfettered parties, bohemian soirees, celebrities and their hangers on, expats and Czech artists and intellectuals mixed together in a living and breathing organism where anything and everything was possible. Robert Carrithers' amazing photos document the golden era of Prague's bohemian days. 

Amazing photos from an inspiring era as experienced and shot by the Prague-based filmmaker and music-video maker Robert Carrithers. Check out the photos of Jean Michel Basquiat, Keith Harring, Ann Magnuson, Paul Nolan Smith, Gudrun Gut, and many other inspiring personalities from New York's Lower East Side arts scene. You will find an interview with Robert about these photos with stories from Lower East Side in the 1980's below.
