Mark Benson :: Totally Permanent

Opening Reception!

On October 3rd, 2008, Mark Benson will debut a new installation, Totally Permanent. With simple tools—paper, wood, and pen—he creates an imaginary landscape of improbable structures with impossible support systems, that comment on impending floods, a collapsing housing market and the general fragility of our place here.

Totally Permanent runs from Oct. 3rd - Nov. 30th, 2008.

DJ Ethan D’Ercole (Mannequin Men) will be spinning at the opening!
