OUTLAW Group Art Show!
Our second group art show and weeklong event at White Box Gallery, is inspired by the downtown New York City art, music and nightlife scene of the late ‘80’s into the early ‘90’s. That time and the infamous outlaw parties were symbolic of our city and the way we lived our lives.
The mix of squatters, punks, skaters, people with ‘real jobs’ and their dealers, artists, DJs, musicians, party promoters etc., was inspiring.
From the famous to the nameless we will pay homage to those that played a role in making New York City the epicenter of all that was cool in the world and is still evident in today’s music, art and fashion.
Opening: Saturday January 7th, 2012 6:00pm until…

Path of Rhythm Show opens in one week!
2feet12inches Presents:
Paths of Rhythm
Curated by Rob Aloia, Brent Bartley, Frankie Cedeno, Erik Foss and Ricky Powell
As artists coming up in New York City, the three elements that inspired and defined our crew’s wild youthful years are represented in our logo: 2’ (Kicks-street style) + 12” (Vinyl-music) = 212 (NYC as muse). In the streets, on the courts and at the clubs all three elements were with us in some form. Paths of Rhythm is a show about being a creative person in NYC.
A portion of all proceeds from this show will go to Art for Progress, a 501(c)3 non profit arts organization. Art For Progress' Arts Education Community provides underserved youth with dynamic artistic programming that promotes reflection and self-expression.
During the opening reception on Wednesday, August 3, 2011, 7-10pm there will be The World Famous Ricky Powell Slide Show and dj sets by: Steven Lewis, Shorty, Stretch Armstrong, Gatto (Art for Progress), DJ Small Change, Sal Principato (Liquid Liquid), and John "Bloodclot" Joseph (Cro-Mags)
