Let the New Year finally begin with some cosmic style at Brooklynite Gallery's first exhibition of 2010, Stealth: Artists Above the Radar. The show highlights two pop art surrealists from opposite ends of the world: Collin Van Der Sluijs, a native of the Netherlands and a specialist in mixed media, who will be showcasing his latest paintings of bizarre animal/human space creatures, and Houston-born abstract artist Derek Shumate, who'll show off his layered, multicolored graphic designs that blend headline news with the artist's fertile imagination.         -Araceli Cruz VILLAGE VOICE

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

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.

PERU ANA ANA PERU: OCTOBER 17

...AND THEN WE JUMPED INTO THE ABYSS OF NUMBERS:
Memories in Absurdity From the Bowels of Peru Ana Ana Peru

You’ve seen it on the streets – just a black square with white text. Two names, a mirror image of themselves. These discreet signs of whoever or whatever refers to itself as PERU ANA ANA PERU are backed up by an eclectic collection of ornately designed pieces of artwork-- pasted, fastened, scribbled or dangling to your left or right.



WHO ARE THEY? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? We are often asked these questions. PERU ANA ANA PERU's use of different mediums is a treat if you enjoy such things and will certainly cut up a neat freak looking to compartmentalize them. Well we may not have all the answers you've been searching for, but we do have their first solo show and hope to bring you as close to their identities as you have been so far.

"...And Then We Jumped into the Abyss of Numbers: Memories in Absurdity From the Bowels of Peru Ana Ana Peru", is the title of their exhibition. A bit long? --Maybe. Very telling? --Yes. Their "abyss of numbers" will explore the unknown, the bizarre and the surreal through multi-media paintings/drawings, sculpture and installations. Video art pieces telling strange narratives will be a key focus of the work and will offer viewers yet another peek into this duo's collective psyche. This work, harmonious with a gallery space, is also intimately connected to their street presence. At their request, we dizzily revel in the irrational.

As a much added bonus, the soundtrack to the opening night event will be performed by BOMB SQUAD [Hank Shocklee; Future Frequency]. The force behind Public Enemy and some of the most significant albums of all time with a preview of the new upcoming album of futuristic dub and live electronics.
