BK:: Tod Seelie and Cinders – Slowdancing To Slayer
Slowdancing to Slayer, joins photographer Tod Seelie with arguably Brooklyn’s most relevant gallery. Since opening in 2004, Cinders has successfully maintained its DIY spirit, functioning as a purely artist-run space. While the show marks the first photo exhibit for the gallery, there couldn’t be a more fitting home for Seelie’s counterculture wonder-wasteland. Functioning as a “mini-retrospective” of sorts, the exhibit showcases a broad body of work, and serves as an autobiographical representation of the photographers recent travels, adventures, friendships, and artistic adventures. While some may dismiss images of young punks, seemingly shrugging off responsibility, what will be missed is the celebration of a young community, alive and shaping the world around them. More pics after the jump, better pics on the Cinders site. On view till August 9th – Do not miss this one.
