Delusional Downtown Divas

Delusional Downtown Divas is an internet television show. The show was originally commissioned by Index Magazine and was first shown at Art Production Fund Lab in January 2009. The show revolves around three young women who were raised amidst the New York art world. Through the course of the show, the characters try to establish themselves in the art community with mixed success. The series heavily parodies the New York art world. Art industry insiders such as Yvonne Force Villareal, Nate Lowman, Rob Pruitt and others have cameos. The show brought much attention to creator Lena Dunham. In 2010, it was announced that Dunham was creating a television show for HBO. The show, which will be called Girls, is expected to draw from Dunham's first show Delusional Downtown Divas.
