When Lightning Strikes / Gabe Benzur

  • The Invisible Dog Art Center (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The Invisible Dog is thrilled to announce it’s 16th season opening with When Lightning Strikes, an exhibition of sixteen new paintings by resident artist Gabe Benzur.

Benzur’s meticulous oil paintings portray colorful, supernatural landscapes devoid of inhabitants, inviting the first-person viewer to be absorbed by another world. Titled after a quote from Seneca about Etruscan religion, each landscape represents a different aspect of their mythology. Gods, sacred places, and the underworld are freely interpreted from their fragmented archaeology and history, separated from the literal, and translated into visual spectacles meant to transport the viewer into a place of superstition and primordial possibility. Here, the imagination gap between what we know and don’t know becomes a rich territory for exploring color and belief.

CATCH 77

The Invisible Dog is thrilled to welcome back CATCH!

CATCH is the Obie award-winning, itinerant, rough-and-ready series of performance parties that whirled through Brooklyn (and Austin, Chicago, Philly, etc) every couple months 2003–2017, took a breather, and is back fresh for 2024. 

CATCH promotes community and the exchange of ideas across a broad constellation of progressive artists, scenes, and their friends and fans, by curating, producing, promoting and documenting parties that center short (and frequently in-progress) performances and videos.

The Invisible Dog is thrilled to announce Thank You For Ur Service 2Fik’s fourth solo exhibition at The Invisible Dog Art Center. 

This multidisciplinary series (visual art, video and installation) stems from a traumatizing experience during a performance in 2021. 2Fik questions his relationship with his characters, 100 of them that he developed since the beginning of his career. After 20 years of practice as the photographer, the model and the creator of all his works, these questions awakened a deep sense of grief.
