The show’s opening reception will mark the launch of issue #2 of Carnage, a limited edition zine featuring the highly distinctive work of New York City’s ATM Crew.

Time: 6:00pm-10:00pm

*

Steven Siegel has been photographing the streets and subways of New York for the past 30 years. When young people today look at his shots from the 1980?s, they are aghast. To them, New York of the 1980?s is almost unrecognizable. Steven has exhibited his work at many prestigious institutions including the New York State Museum, Federal Hall, Hudson Waterfront Museum, and more. He graduated Columbia University with a Masters of Science in Urban Planning.

Michael Fales can be found photographing the streets as the city comes alive in the morning, or exploring it?s tucked-away nooks. His photos have appeared on numerous websites, books, and exhibitions. He currently resides in Brooklyn with his wife and two cats.
*
Graham Shimberg is a photographer, track-walker, freight-nerd, and bindle-stiff.
*
Bob Barry documents graffiti amidst the paranoia and the Disney-fication of a post-9/11 New York.
*
Oscar Arriola is a Chicago-based photographer who has enjoyed documenting graffiti, city life, tuxedo cats, rogue cops, and artists since the mid-80?s. His photography has been featured in the recent Chicago Street Art book.
