Stephan Fowlkes Exhibition
Gitana Rosa Gallery
This event has ended.
This will be Fowlkes’ first solo show at Gitana Rosa. We welcome you to experience the installation and sculptures created from salvaged wood reclaimed in Williamsburg. “My most recent sculptures directly address the development and gentrification of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. All the wood used comes from dumpsters at job sites and scrap piles in woodshops in my neighborhood, all destined for landfill. Just as the new buildings rising out of the remains of the past in this neighborhood, these pieces are structures effectively reclaiming the past.”
Due to the extent of damage and people affected by the hurricane, we will host the artist reception on Friday, November 16th from 6-9pm. However, the artist will be present this Friday, November 9th from 6-9pm, as previously noted for our monthly WILLIAMSBURG EVERY SECOND FRIDAY Art After Hours event, where Williamsburg risk-taking galleries and alternative art spaces spring into action with galleries open until 9pm and beyond.
