——Have you ever been to church and seen the light? Well at the recent Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium, the Luminarie De Cagna created an LED cathedral that lit up the entire city of Belfortstraat with a glowing psychedelic aura. The result is arguably beautiful enough to make anybody a believer.

Alex Ziv solo show
May 1st, 2010 6:00-9:00 pm
artist talk: May 4, 2010 6:00-8:00
closing: May 22, 2010 6:00-9:00
Combining past, present, and futuristic elements into his carefully stylized drawings Alex Ziv will surprise you with the meticulousness of his practice. Artist Ziv is perfecting the art of giving form to signs in the most regal manner, signs that originate from myth and folk tales. Calligraphy, the roots of which translate to mean beautiful writing, suits Alex's work as it succeeds in telling the viewer a story. Standing out among the works are his introspective self portraits and carefully crafted pseudo-manuscripts inspired by gothic calligraphy.
The Peanut Gallery extends a warm welcome to you and yours for this opening.
Peanut Gallery is pleased to present the work of Jesse Hlebo in a solo exhibition entitled Still, Life. Addressing the themes of fear, value and loss, rejection and pain, Hlebo’s work is a result of multiple processes of mediation and removal; layering damage upon damage and challenging notions of what defines the seemingly perfect nature of mass-reproduction. For his exhibition, Hlebo utilizes screen prints, videos, and audio to create a focused viewing experience in a subtly frustrating environment.
Jesse Hlebo (b. 1988) is an artist who lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. He has had solo and group exhibitions across the U.S. and in Japan. Most recently, Jesse curated the inaugural MtyMx All Ages Art and Music Festival in Monterrey, Mexico. He is the editor of _ Quarterly, an experimental arts and literature publication and is also the founder of Swill Children, a small press/record label that facilitates online projects in conjunction with physical components. Jesse is currently working on a collaborative book with Milano Chow/Medium Rare. In May 2010, Jesse will receive a BFA in Photography at Parsons The New School For Design.

Taurus Evans speaks about his life and his work this weekend. We are pleased to host yet another artist talk.
Born and raised in Southeast Washington D.C., Taurus began drawing at the age of six; by seven he was enrolled in weekend art classes where he studied advanced drawing, and by the age of 15 he was accepted to the Duke Ellington School of the Arts where he began to paint.
Upon graduating from the Duke Ellington school, Evans begins attending the San Francisco Art Institute for a year until he was involved in a motorcycle collision that fractured his left arm and damaged a radial nerve, leaving him unable to paint for a year.
Taurus relays life experience, passion, and inspiration on this closing night to The Bacchannals, join us for intimate dialogue with the artist.

We invite all lovers, friends, enemies, frienemies, and lonely souls to enjoy the Peanut Gallery's February opening- We We're Meant to Be.
7-10 pm
We We're Meant to Be.
This February the Peanut Gallery presents “We Were Meant to Be”. A show created with you in mind “We Were Meant to Be” features the work of Ana Belén Canton, Kit Yi Wong, and Carissa Potter. All three artists are working with the idea of human connection. Connection is broad in it’s understanding and these artists explore the spectrum of public and personal relationships between dating, love, and friendship. They investigate what it means to relate to someone, to yourself, or to your community. Their work incorporates free floating diary entries, apparel constructed of H1N1 masks, and childhood narratives with adult content. “We Were Meant to Be” aims to let you in, hold you close and take you with us.
6:30-10pm
"What is it really, That's going on here..
You've got the system for total control..
Now is there any, body out there..
Now watch us suffer yeah cause we can't go.
What is it really that is in your head
What little life that you had just died
I'm gonna be the one that's taking over
Now this is what it's like when worlds collide!"
We invite you to experience in our first show for the new year.
Tonight's music brought to you by DJ Mark Aubert.
Saturday Dec. 05, 2009 @ 7pm till 11pm.
Like some other-wordly planetary alignment, Jordan Bogash and Erlin Geffrard have met in a parallel reality to bring you Jungle Fever. Both Bogash and Geffrard pull ideas from their youth and redirect them into a landscape of pop culture derangement and merriment. Working with quickly recognizable logos like the Nike swoosh and the McDonald's M, the duo use symbolism to draw the viewer into their world of fun and madness. Jungle Fever will be the debut of their much-anticipated ‘Last Supper’, a collaborative painting between both artists that is sure to knock socks off. Through their collaborative efforts, Bogash and Geffrard have immersed themselves in a dialogue of childhood angst and the wonderment of youth.
Opening night festivities include a raffle, giving YOU a chance to take home an awesome piece of paraphernalia. DJ Mark Aubert will be here. Complimentary beverages will be served. See you Saturday night!
Make time Monday November 30th
We welcome you to stop by and enjoy this months show one last time.
Meet the artist and make conversation.

WHAT ABOUT ME?!
New Faces in Contmeporary Self-Portraiture.
Dean Dempsey, Richard Castaneda, & Susan Wu group show.
We are now 4months deep in presenting exciting new art to our local masses. October might have been a bit bawdy and erotic, but November will prove to be introspective and cerebral. We present three artists implicating themselves in work concerning issues of identity and personal experience.
Dean Dempsey re-scripts reality, seeking to alter the encounter with himself and place, His multiple characters play out a dialogue of awkwardness. Caught in the moment, Dempsey situates himself at every possible intersection of a scene, a willing participant to an altered reality.
Richard Bluecloud Castaneda pulls from a large lexicon of imagery regarding Native Americans in an effort to reclaim history and identity. Richard uses photography as a method of introspection in order to bring present the stereotypes casts on "indians" by the American west and re-assimilating himself as the bearer of these greivances. He aims to recontextualize and reappropriate the image of the "noble savage" which hinder real identity and self-determination of his peoples.
Susan Wu reassembles her past and reimagines her present. In her self-portrait drawings, she assembles objects she collects; wether from magazine clippings or found photographs, and depicts the metaphors sorrounding her American life, her ethnicity, her morals, experiences with love, and mistakes that add to her personal narratives.
