Let me fill you in about The New York State of Mind Show. It is a Art show that was the seed thought of a few friends just sitting around a visiting restaurants, lounges, and just hanging out looking at art on various walls in our community, as well as other communties. Slowly we began to realize that we too should achieve the same exposure, since we are artist as well, and if someone without any formal training can be a featured artist, why couldn't we share our visions with others also? Shortly after we decided to begin with the project which we collectively entitled New York State of Mind, and would only feature NYC artist. We want people to see the vision of true New Yorkers. All the featured artist were given an assignment as well. They must create one theme piece that represents New York, through their eyes, their vision, WHAT IS THEIR NEW YORK STATE OF MIND? The artist will also showcase their other works that need not be theme related, just the main one. We will cover all mediums of art at this show. You will see everything from fashion to painting, illustration, photography, graffiti work, media etc. We want it to be a community event, and what defines community better then breaking bread. Yes we will break bread with folks, and offer our true urban hospitality (until we run out of food that is ) lol We want this to be a big party , a celebration of sight, color , theme, words that are not spoken but rather seen through various perspectives. This is not intended to be a stuffy art show where you walk around holding up your pinkies, looking at art going hmm, umm ah. Noooo! we want people to look at stuff and honestly say wow that sh.t is hot! Or just stare for a while trying to analyze the obvious, yet not so ovious complex thoughts of the artist and their unspoken words, while allowing to draw your own conclusion.What else the show takes place May 3rd, real art by real New yorkers, cool music, food, bring cameras, cheap drinks on sale, raffles. Bring your singles for the raffles. 21 and over event - Show quoted text -
