HUSTLENOMICS V PHOTOS!!!!!

TONIGHT! FRESTHURSDAYS KICKOFF!!!!

HUSTLENOMICS WEEKEND KICKS OFF ON THURSDAY NIGHT in NYC
We got a bunch of events lined up to make it a weekend to remember.
Check below to see how its going down!!!

The 5th Annual Hustlenomics event is being held on Friday, November 14, 2008. This year, we've invited a diverse range of artists to create and present art pieces encompassing the theme "Politricks". The artists will display their personal perspective on American or global politics. Since this year's event falls after the elections (in hopes that OBAMA is elected our President), it won't strictly be focused on the 2008 campaign. We've asked each artist to step outside the box and produce pieces that express how important and powerful politics has been throughout the turn of the century. These pieces will represent the impacts of politics and how its affected people of different race, demographics, economics, language and gender.

Your Hustlenomics team is working hard to make this year's event really special!

The Cruda Series by Ana Bravo Opens this week October 30th. Check out the latest work from this Mexican Artist from California. We will have complimentary Sangria and DJ LEYDIS straight from Cuba

The Cruda Series is something that began before Ana Bravo even really started painting. When She first became interested in Art she used to browse through all the art books at the library and the stuff that called out to her the most in the beginning was Cuban poster art from the 1960s and 70s. She thought it was really beautiful with the bright, bold colors and simple text. visually, it really appealed to her. She didn't know how to silkscreen at the time so she tried to duplicate that style by painting it. She can't pinpoint when sheI first heard about pink elephants…but when Bravo found out that cartoon characters would hallucinate them when they were intoxicated she just knew she wanted to paint them. Bravo always found it amusing that they called a hangover "la cruda" in Spanish. so she just put the two together and painted a little bit of her reality. in art school, her mentor would tell her not to paint flat…it used to really annoy her, but Bravo figured she should probably learn how to paint and draw a proper figure. that's when she started doing all the portraits. while she was in school they used to always tell her to go to the MOMA in SF and write about the work there. Ana Bravo remembers being blown away by this huge paining by Takashi Murakami. and guess what? it was bright pink and completely flat! and since the elephants always seemed to creep back into her work… she decided she would dedicate a show to them and just have fun with painting again…and hopefully get them out of her system…
