The exhibition includes artists working in a broad breadth of genres- from painting, to video, photography, installation, sculpture, performance, and social based media art. Opening reception for Escape From New York is May, 15, 2010 3-9 p.m.
This is an excellent show. I got to see it while I was in Debra Drexler's Professional Practices Course. The concept is brilliant - branch out from the New York art scene to new frontiers in order to free ourselves from the cliquishness and close-mindedness that can cause art to get stuck in a rut. All the pieces in this show (beautiful paintings, drawings, powerful installations, photography, etc.) support this concept and work together to transcend what we think of as the stuffy gallery space.
ReplyDeleteI really like those paints that there are shapes that you can appreciate from other shapes. (shape or figure into other shapes). kamagra is famous with that kind of paints.
