Portrait of a Generation
June 7 – August 10, 2012

 The Hole is proud to announce the exhibition “Portrait of a Generation” where over 100 artists who make up the art scene here will make portraits of each other to give image to a community of people. The works will be hung salon style on our gallery walls, and include painted, drawn and photographic portraits.
We are producing a catalogue for the exhibition that will serve as a kind of yearbook for New York City in 2012.

R.I.P. Dash Snow

Just found out the talented downtown NYC artist Dash Snow died last night of an overdose. Like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Kurt Cobain, he was just 27. Really sad, he was such a friendly and enormously talented guy with a promising future (I loved his collages and installations) and now leaves behind a young daughter.

Some comments left by readers on a New York Times article on his death:

Very sad. Dash Snow sported an annoying “hipper-than-thou” art-world persona, but his artistic talent was undeniable.Unfortunately, he was not only a brilliant artist but a drug addict as well. Here we have the Basquiat of the 21st century.— OnTenthAvenue

Privileged young kid wastes life with debauchery and becomes ‘artist’ by documenting said destruction with polaroids. Just so he can remember what happened.Soooooo 1980’s! Maybe the deMenils can build a museum for him in Houston. — atron

As he was famous for being a drug addict, this is not surprising. RIP. — tim
Just got out of rehab in March. My goodness. Really sad. This seems to be not about stupid choices or cliches, but about addiction. Tragic.— CourtneyAJ

Wow, the seediness, violence, and poverty of the world of the grandson of Christophe de Menil. Now that’s what I call intense. — Jim
