Four Friends. Endless visions. One vehicle
The images explode upon fabric like messy, dismantled rainbows arranged in some visually universal alphabet of beauty. Chaos becomes interpretable as instinctual meaning is deciphered. The outside world is uniform; the majority of humanity awash in ordinary sameness.
This is NOT your typical t shirt company.

Counter/Culture – The Disappearing Face of Brooklyn’s Storefronts
Curators and photographers: James and Karla Murray
OPENING RECEPTION: Wednesday September 10th 5:30 to 7:30 PM
Brooklyn’s neighborhood storefronts have the city’s history etched in their facades. Each store is as unique as the customers they serve and are run by owners who share a commitment to provide a special service. Many shops are lifelines for their communities, vital to the residents who depend on them for a multitude of needs. Yet such shops are disappearing on a daily basis as their neighborhoods rapidly change. Photographer-curators James and Karla Murray have scoured Brooklyn to observe “mom and pop” businesses from humble neighborhood stores tucked away on narrow side streets to well-known institutions on historic avenues. Through panoramic photographs, portraits of individual storefronts, and illuminating interviews with shop owners, this exhibition reveals how neighborhood stores help set the pulse, life, and texture of their communities. Exhibit dates: Sept. 10 – Dec. 28, 2008
