Moments Like This Never Last

   2020    History
Dash Snow rejected a life of privilege to make his own way as an artist on the streets of downtown New York City in the late 1990s.

Drawing from Snow's unforgettable body of work and involving archival footage, Cheryl Dunn's exceptional portrait captures his all-too-brief life of reckless excess and creativity.
