2b029 - Baker Beach, 1990

JUN 21 1990 · 12:00

Surrounded by scores of spectators yelling "BURN THE MAN!", Jerry James (L) & Larry Harvey (R) have a serious discussion about the police edict to forbid the burn at Baker Beach on the night of 21 June 1990. Several hours later, the unburned Man was lowered, disassembled and then taken to the Black Rock Desert two months later. Larry Harvey photographed by Michael Mikel.
