    Casual Encounters,
    A Group Show Friday, 2/11/11 @ Mighty Tanaka Gallery in DUMBO
    Brooklyn.
    Mighty Tanaka presents:
    Casual Encounters
    A Journey Through the Ridiculous, the Absurd and the Extreme


    Applying pen to paper is one of the simplest forms of art one can
    produce. However, to do it well is a true feat No matter how simple
    or complex, the drawing conveys the artist’s id and deepest
    subconscious. In our next show at Mighty Tanaka, we present Casual
    Encounters, as we take a look at the humorous and otherwise ridiculous
    illustrations of what make us human. Featuring the artwork of Lauren
    Asta, Jac Atkinson, Abe Lincoln Jr., Rick Midler, Reginald Péan and
    RTTP, this show provides an off kilter version of life.

    This modern storybook show exemplifies the extremes and absurdities
    that one may encounter and the interpretations behind it. From lesbian
    orgies to cartoony and graphic introspections, the work of Casual
    Encounters is both fun and enticing, with a style of illustration for
    everyone.

    Ranging from the highly detailed to the sublimely minimal, Casual
    Encounters offers the viewer an escape from reality, if only for a
    night.
