ASCO: Without Permission
ASCO: Without Permission is a feature length documentary that profiles the extraordinary Chicano art group of the 70's-80's, ASCO, who merged activism/art and challenged representation in the art world, politics, and Hollywood through their incendiary performance art, photography, video, and muralism. "Without Permission" examines the importance of their subversive and wildly spirited work and how it serves as a framework for representation in today's cultural landscape. Through formal invention and the creation of original works with the next generation of Latinx artists, along with ASCO's stunning archive and interviews with actors, artists and activists, this genre-defying film provides a call to action while celebrating a group that was far ahead of its time.
Travis Gutiérrez Senger is directing. North of Now, La Corriente del Golfo, and ANM are producing. Exile Content is executive producing. The project is currently in post-production.
