Street artists including Aiko, Bast, Dain, and Ellis G transformed the lower-level 112 Greene St. studio space into the vibrant, collaborative group show Work To Do, running through April 16th. Opening night, Thursday March 26th, featured deafeningly-loud 90's hip-hop and free beer and wine. Long lines wrapped along the block in the rain to get a first glimpse at the artwork!
My favorite pieces were WRONA's "Assorted Undead" series of acrylic and pen zombie creatures on cardboard. The undead suit was my favorite, but unfortunately it had already been sold.

My next two favorites were available (the bawling half-head and hippie) and since I was a bit tipsy (open bars at art shows are genius!), I decided to just go for it with no qualms. I've purchased prints and small handmade crafts before (my tea mug from Etsy!), but this was my first gallery purchase. A real milestone! The show offers affordable works if you're looking to purchase art. Regardless, it's worth a browse.
