The Nova Convention was a three-day conference and festival held in New York City in December 1978. It was organized by poet and publisher James Laughlin and featured a wide range of participants, including writers, artists, musicians, and intellectuals.
The main focus of the convention was experimental and avant-garde art and literature, with a particular emphasis on the Beat generation. Some of the notable attendees included Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, John Cage, Patti Smith, and Laurie Anderson.
The convention featured various performances, readings, discussions, and exhibitions, as well as film screenings and musical performances. It was seen as an important gathering for the underground and countercultural movements of the time and helped to further solidify the influence of the Beat generation on contemporary art and literature.
Although the Nova Convention was only held once, it remains a significant event in the history of avant-garde culture and the Beat generation.
