Contaminate NYC presents:
Opening: Tuesday July 6th, 2020 – 6pm-9pm
Through August 03
O’Barone
360 Van Brunt Street,
Red Hook, Brooklyn
Contaminate NYC is pleased to present Information (apparently) by Andrew Coates. The exhibition, to be held at O’Barone restaurant in Red Hook will open on July 6th, 2010 and will run until August 3rd, 2010.
Information (apparently)is a new way to see reality. Andrew’s innate dadaist instinct allows him to break down and then reconstruct the ordinary to manifest the multiple shapes it can morph in. The core theme of the show focuses on his long-time study on the BEARS ATTACK BOOKS. The artist dissects existing information and generates a new message with his particular arrangement of the pieces. It is still information, yet stronger, more definite and unusual. It is the triumph of human creativity and originality, the effort of put an innovative and unique stamp on the routines of every day life.
