3. A collection of new works from Dan Armand and Dennis Jacobs at 323 East beginning January 14th, 2012.
Pulling a slew of literary and cultural influences from the disparate worlds of street art, advertising, graphic design and pop art Dan Armand and Dennis Jacobs will showcase their latest works as 323East and 1xRUN are proud to unveil our first exhibition of 2012, Transliteration. The old saying goes that occasionally meanings are lost in translations, but as these two mixed-media artists draw from these many influences, that is exactly where they will pull meaning. Armand and Jacobs look to blur the lines accross dozens of emotions and mediums straddling cultural, social and economic psyches to create a new artistic alphabet of communication.
