see: VIRTUAL DREAM CENTER<\/a><\/p>\n

the show took place the weekend of JUNE 6-7, 2013 . . in an empty storefront in Chinatown, on the Bowery.
\ncurated by KATE & THEO CERIGO . . who grew up with us<\/strong>, and all our art and drama . . on Rivington St, smack dab in the Lower East Side, when it<\/strong> was raw and truly popping, in the early 80s-mid 90s.
\nthe show was an on-point ‘group’ retrospective, was very well received, and attracted a huge, and young flash mob – at the opening.
\nit was like all of Brooklyn came out for the . . underground art scene – of days, long past. <\/p>\n

it’s really<\/strong> exciting to see the first early advance . . ‘replica’ – digital ‘photos’ – come to life, below.
\nif you caught the show – you will know . . what I mean !!
\nbravo – Nicholas !!<\/p>\n

\nfounder\/art director of VIRTUAL DREAM CENTER, for your interest in our show !!
\nand allowing it to come to life, again – in the timeless, digital realm. <\/p>\n
