Drop off film, check Benny Gold and Jay Howell
Had to drop off some film downtown, and since I was down there I checked out the new Benny Gold flagship store and Jay Howell's solo show at A440 Gallery
I rode by the Benny Gold store on their opening day a couple weeks back and regretted not stopping in. Not knowing much about Benny Gold, I looked him up and found out he is graphic designer who turned his brand into an internationally known apparel company and now he's opened this store as his hub, with his design studio up stairs.
A lot of attention to detail in everything he makes, which is why I bought this awesome wallet, to replace the one below.upgrade.his dog was cool too.Then checked out Jay Howell's show, Alligator Fuck House
I like his work because it's fun
Across the hall I found a collection of photo's. The famous brown sisters by Nicholas Nixon. Bummed the whole series wasn't there.Idris Khan layered every "brown sister's" photo though.Always been a fan of Khan's work. Really nice seeing it huge.
I thought these photo's were cool too. Don't remember who shot them unfortunately.
