NYU - How Many Roads

Opening at The Gallatin Galleries on Aug. 25 and running through Oct. 15, the Bob Dylan Center’s exhibition, “How Many Roads: Bob Dylan and his Changing Times, 1961–1964,” traces key moments from Bob Dylan’s early career and follows his rapid rise from an unknown performer to one of the most influential songwriters of his generation—a dynamic period spanning his first three albums.

The exhibit will be anchored by Bob Dylan Center–produced documentary films, which tell the story of the vibrant Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 1960s, with never-before-seen interviews with Suze Rotolo, Allen Ginsberg, Dave Van Ronk, John Cohen, Izzy Young, Bruce Langhorne and Mark Spoelstra; the stories behind “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “The Death of Emmett Till”; an investigation into the events in Mississippi that inspired “Oxford Town” and “Only a Pawn in Their Game”; and the historic March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom of Aug. 28, 1963.

The Gallatin Galleries are free and open to the public during operating hours: Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
