HASH HALPER PRESENTS TRISTAN REGINATO, ‘AN UNKNOWN SEASON’ – PART II
PELL ST – CHINATOWN
THE DESCENT
HASH HALPER descending the TRISTAN REGINATO marbled paper staircase, for almost the last time.
seems, sadly, the space was just a . . summer fling.
but, HASH is moving on. he has teamed up with AMY LI in her new 166 MOTT – ALTERNATIVE ART SPACE.
so look for more . . shows, on the down low.
amazing, what beautiful light .. can filter through a narrow doorway – in dense late afternoon .. Chinatown.
and find it’s way to play among .. the swirly, hand-marbled paper sheets.
amazing the .. contrast between the new art, and the old .. scene playing out on the street.
HASH liked to point out how the old lettering on the door now reads: ART, LIES INC instead of the former: ART SUPPLIES.
back out on the street, the real world closes in, and life resumes.
and such is the transitory way . . of the world.
you go up the mountain, and then . . you come down.
