BROOKLYNITE: THE YEAR AHEAD

It's been awhile since our last post so we wanted to get you up to speed about what's going here at BROOKLYNITE. Lots in store for 2010 including a great crop of artists from around the globe ready to grace the walls inside and outside (of course) of the gallery.

FOLLOW US ON TWITTER: @BklyniteGallery

Our first show of the year, STEALTH: ARTISTS ABOVE THE RADAR, will feature two talented artists we feel deserve a bit more attention paid to them. Dutch painter, Collin Van Der Sluijs and Derek Shumate from Houston, Texas.

STEALTH: ARTISTS ABOVE THE RADAR
COLLIN VAN DER SLUIJS / DEREK SHUMATE
February 13 - March 6
OPENING RECEPTION: Feb. 13, 7-10pm



We've offered up our gallery walls as a soapbox for these two under-exposed artists from different ends of the world, both of who use their canvases much like mental filing cabinets to store information full of free expression and socio-political views.

For more info about this exhibition be sure to check out our NEWS section.

NEXT UP:
