Over the past couple of weeks I have walked past Gallery Nine5 often. The artwork showing through their large glass store front always sparks my interest. They are bright interesting silkscreens and intricate scultptures hanging from the ceiling. Usually it is during my lunch break that I walk by the gallery and I usualky have a sandwich or open drink (non-alcoholic of course) which is not really an ideal gallery perusing look. Today I was hands free and so I decided to go in. The large open space has a variety of different pieces with various mediums, from wire sculptures, anime figurines, oil paintings and just some really awesome work!

The exhibit right now called FEATURED ends August 31st. It has artwork by Jessica Lichtenstein, Mike Murphy, and Agnes Pezeu. All of the artists really blew me away (and I grew up in museums!- thanks dad!) Next month Mike Murphy (whose sculptures show incredibly detailed skill) will have a solo exhibition that I will definately check out.

It's free to get in, unpretentious and a nice little break from reality.
Spring Street, between Elizabeth and Mott.
