"Time Machine" Exhibition
Brooklynite Gallery
This event has ended.
TIME MACHINE, the show's title, derives from the constant comparisons being made to the current art scene and freedom of _expression in present day Berlin, as compared to what was going on in New York City in the late 60's, 70's and 80's. TIME MACHINE brings together DAIN, a native New Yorker, who seems to be very much hell-bent on reviving NYC street art back to it's heyday, with VARIOUS and GOULD from Berlin, two artists who are prime examples of why comparisons to the two cities are even being made.
If you haven't noticed DAIN's bold, sexy, thought-provoking wheat-pastes plastered throughout the city, you must either have a lot on your mind or are too busy looking down at the ground for something you've lost. He's everywhere! With a strong affection for the 1920's glamour girl and their come-hither glances, to the pop culture icons of the past in classic poses, to the stark, innocent stares of children in need, DAIN creates images that are 'moments in time' ---drawing you in from many angles. Incorporating hints of neon color that pops in just the right places, repeating shapes and figures in ways that create new ones, DAIN's work evokes moments of style, of humor or of sympathy.
