"Please Save Maria Kondratiev" with Katie Mullins & zine library
Saturday, September 17 at 7:00pm - September 18 at 1:00am
Darling House, 496 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY
We are located at the corner of Broadway and Union - Lorimer JMZ, Broadway G, or a ten minute walk from the Lorimer L. Look for the glass door, ring top buzzer.

Please join us for an evening with new paintings and drawings by Brooklyn-based artist Maria Kondratiev. In addition to the works created in her studio, Maria is bringing a can of paint and a brush to prepare a kind of anti-trompe l'oeil throughout our living space. Her forms transcribed from dreams - drawn resolutely yet impulsively, whimsical and depressed - hint at the underbelly of yearning. At the same time they address the... necessary human thing that is desire, and the humorous thing that is emerging self-awareness.

Music will be provided by the wonderful Katie Mullins. (http://katiemullinsmusic.com/)

Coinciding with the Brooklyn Book Festival we will also be hosting a small zine library featuring chapbooks by James Yeh, illustrated by Andrew Bulger, interview and other booklets by Temporary Services, prints by Rand Renfrow, and comics by Mark Hensel. Zines will be available for purchase. (http://yehjames.blogspot.com/, http://andrewbulger.com/, http://www.temporaryservices.org/, http://randrenfrow.com/, http://www.hypercastle.com/)

Drinks and foods will be present, but please also BYOB. Bring your friends.

- Full Exhibition Description -
-The Natural Order -
What began as a casual investigation into the 'current' of Art Making in the Greater Wiliamsburg area quickly evolved into a reflecting upon the symbiotic push & pull of human and environment.
C.A.S. is proud to present, -The Natural Order-, a collection of local & under-exposed Williamsburg artists in conversation on the effect of man in nature, & the affect of nature on man.
Not merely a caption on the inconvenient truth of our looming carbon footprint, these artists dig deeper. They seem to mine veins of socio-political legacy & cultural artifact, endeavoring toward some core truth on the perpetuality of coexistence.
It seems natural in a time of continuing political fissure & economic erosion that the seers of our age would consider the wild, for clues as to role, connection & place with more lasting integrity. To this end, the artists draw from multiple and disparate sources of inspiration. Examples include imperialistic, hierarchical ideology to the detritus of urban convenience to the spiritual modus of the ancients. From parasitism toward mutualism, 'The Natural Order' considers equally the tocsins of that which we leave behind as much as the prescience of the trail markers ahead.
