Opening at FIFTY24PDX Gallery on Thursday, February 2, the show features works from Gage Hamilton, Zach Yarrington and Stephan Alexandr with the concept being based around the financial crisis. Gage questions the legitimacy of our financial institutions and our relationships with money through re-created scenes from The Alexander Hamilton Project peppered with reactions to the ensuing Occupy controversy, while Zach searches for a utilitarian alternative to the disheartening state of American politics, and Stephan poses a unique question of commodity value.
Faux Money, Faux Problems opens First Thursday, February 2nd from 6:00-10:00pm. All artists will be in attendance. SHK THT will be pumping party jams, and our friends from Gorilla Meats Co. and Red Hook will fill your belly with delicious artisanal meats and seasonal beers. The show will run through March 29th, 2012.
