It Ain't Fair brought together a collective gestalt of creative forces emerging from New York of all places. Featuring an all-hip cast of artists, curators, and diletantes, the opening night was the place to be on Tuesday night (12.2.2008), ending with a raucous performance by A.R.E. Weapons.O.H.W.O.W. is a new exhibition space off the beaten path in the Wynwood district. Located in a black and white striped warehouse, this huge space envisions itself as the new epicenter of the Miami art landscape. Run by Aaron Bondaroff (A-Ron) and Al Moran, O.H.W.O.W. brings together the worlds of art, publications, music, and fashion, not unlike the multidisciplinary program embraced by Deitch Projects.
It Ain't Fair offers the composite efforts of Kathy Grayson, Terence Koh's A.S.S., Tim Barber, Picture Box, and Peres Projects, along with a host of other contributors. Each night at the space featured other musical perfromances and screenings. Highlights of this show include a massive wall relief by Ara Peterson, video by Ben Jones, a choice Dearraindrop painting, and a human scaled drawing by Aurel Schmidt. We're looking forward to next year's manifestation.
