Significant Matters introduces the achievements of artists whose work makes us reevaluate mundane objects and things discovered in daily life, including common industrial products, scenery that could be overlooked, and the capability of body parts that are taken for granted. This exhibition features the work of four artists: Nobutaka Aozaki, Miwa Koizumi, Kenichi Nakajima, and Andrew Zarou.

Organized by Gen Hayashi, Significant Matters will be on view at Project 722, 722 Metropolitan Avenue, 2nd floor, Brooklyn, NY 11211, from May 4th to 26th, 2013.

The opening reception will be held on Saturday, May 4th, 2013 from 6 to 9 PM.

AZ is a visual artist and Brooklyn native.  He lives and maintains a studio in the chinatown section of Sunset Park, Brooklyn.  His inspiration is found in the artwork of his peers, post-punk, dub, and minimalist or electronic music. Zarou finds motivation and the joy of life in all the detritus he sees daily walking the streets of New York...

Parallel Art Space is proud to present it’s inaugural exhibition, Alter Minimal – Lexicon Series Vol. 1.  This group show is the first in the Lexicon series; a series which explores the notion that artist’s, while retaining unique and personal vantage points with regard to their craft, often employ overlapping formal styles and/or aesthetic concerns. As the title Alter Minimal suggests, we are examining works from artists, Clinton King, Lance Lankford, Gary Petersen, Suzanne Stroebe, and Andrew Zarou, who engage, to varying degrees, the multiple facets of a minimalist approach.

A grand opening will take place on April 14th, 2012 from 6 – 9pm.

Regular gallery hours are Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 1 – 6pm.
