Contemporary art, social media, and cultural consciousness come together for a unique, integrated art experience at Hashtags Unplugged, taking place from 11:00am until 6:00pm starting on Thursday May 12, 2016 at 11:00am.
Grag this $10 pulse (a $15 value) to gain an unlimited pass valid for all 3 days of the event that features 25 artists specially commissioned to create works exploring 10 groundbreaking hashtags. With your full 3-day access, you will also gain admission to the Opening Night Party from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday May 12.
The hashtags range from the politically charged (#BlackLivesMatter), to the polarizing (#TheDress), to the feel-good (#100HappyDays) - with all 10 hashtags sharing one universal trait: their strange and fascinating ability to drive public conversation and collective consciousness.
Incisive, of-the-moment, and thrilling - this show is going to be #MajorKey for any art lover!
Explore the intriguing dialogue between art and social media at Hashtags Unplugged, a special exhibit at Caelum Gallery in Chelsea.
In this group show, 25 artists come together to present their works - paintings, drawings, installations, sculptures, and videos - inspired by 10 hashtags that have profoundly shaped our culture.
From #LoveWins (Supreme Court’s overturning of the ban on samesex marriage), to #WhyIStayed (the complexities of domestic violence), these hashtags have played a crucial role in sending a united message, or giving a voice to the overlooked - or sometimes, just getting everyone talking at once (#BreakTheInternet).
This exciting mix of high art, pop culture, and social media is sure to set the art world abuzz. Be there to see it happen - and enjoy the elegant yet lively Opening Reception, in the company of other stylish art enthusiasts.
