Straight from the newsletter/invitation that just went out. First post updated with the new information.

NY Artist RAE Combines the Bizarre with the Everyday Hustle of Coney Island, Brooklyn

Last stop-- Coney Island. On the edge of Brooklyn, and the outskirts of a city teeming with millions of struggles and victories, sits an eclectic amusement park for the ages and the perfect backdrop for the artist RAE and his newest venture, “The End Starts Now”.

As a dedicated child of Brooklyn, RAE flashes back to the days when he would venture beyond the chaos and cluster of the high-rise project blocks into the salty-sweet air of Coney Island, a place for kids to have unabashed fun, sprinkled with elements of the bizarre, underground subcultures and seedy side streets rolled into one.

Colorful and precarious at the same time, RAE's pop-infused paintings and found-object sculptures reflect the areas cultural juxtapositions. The vibrancy and childish lines that run throughout his work are reminiscent of the twists and turns of a ride on the Cyclone, while his characters and their cryptic expressions, always seeming to be up to something, peer at the viewer, never fully at ease but still at home in their surroundings. Made from cast-off materials he finds while drifting along the back streets and behind the amusement park rides, RAE's sculptures combine visions of playfulness, sorrow and regret, bringing new life to the incidentals of the daily hustle in the form of these 'trophies of the repurposed'.

Given the fact that thrills and surprises are native to the Coney Island experience, coupled by the belief that no RAE show would be complete without them, expect RAE to deliver installations and performances that will no doubt be ramped up on opening night.

“The End Starts Now” comes on the heels of last year's “The RAE Show”, featured in The New York Times, in which RAE lived on display inside the storefront window of of an East Village space 24/7 for nearly a month. Now, overlooking the Wonder Wheel, perched high above Surf Avenue and inside the historic Herman Popper Building, RAE asks you to “Step right up!” and bare witness to Coney Island once she’s scrubbed of her seasonal sparkle, because the end is always a new beginning.

Dear All,

Due to lack of wall space I´m thinking of selling my HUGE piece by RAE BK. Its called edgewise and is
the original to the HPM print release in 2013. The work was also exhibited at his Word of mouth show
in 2013 in new york. Accompanioned to the work is no.1 of the original HPM and the limited edition book
to the show which also has an original drawing included. So actually its a set of three pieces.

The work is on woodpanel and has a total of 200 x 200 cm. ITs actually two pieces that are fixed together
with screwes. So shippign wise its actually just half the size and due to tha material pretty stable.

price: I think works in that size are between 15 to 20k USD. I want to sell this very fair and thinking of 5k euros or even trade. Payment plans are possible too.

PIctures:
