Kitty Cats and Nuclear Energy


On Wednesday night Rick Charnoski had his second dope jumpoff within the space of a week. After killing it with "Deathbowl to Downtown" he opened a gallery show at Elk in SoHo called Kitty Cats and Nuclear Energy Come Together. The Elk space is perfect and the neverending glasses of sangria would make even the worst art show fun. This show, however, was really fresh, lo fi, nostalgic and original. But the best way to describe it would just be to transcribe the description on the flyer:
Rick Charnoski Presents an Exhibition of:
Framed Works of Art
Drug Bags
Insulin bottles
Lost Pet Ephemera
Decorative Canvases
The Largest Collection of Empty Swimming Pool Photographs Ever Seen
Plus Bowls of Stones, Shells and Bones


This is made up of all empty chronic bags.

Nathan Jurevicius X MFA

Ridiculously dope Aussie artist Nathan Jurevicius unveiled a new piece in New York recently. Commissioned for the branding agency MFA and entitled "Psychedelic Walk in the Park," the piece is ten feet wide and four feet tall and pops insanely like the gates to Imaginationland when seen in person. This shit needs to be seen to be believed. And yeah, dropping some sort of hallucinogen is not discouraged. More info on this collabo in the near future.
