Factory on 5th

Factory on 5th is a pink 1948 Quonset Hut self-possessed of a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF unique energy MANIFESTING CREATIVE VISION INTO REAL vibrant life THAT WE EXPERIENCE, TOGETHER..

WE SAY THAT THE SPACE "OWNS ITSELF" BECAUSE IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT TYPE OF CREATIVE EVENT TAKES PLACE, COULD BE SPOOKY BALLET OR DISSONANT PUNK, A COMMUNITY ART EXHIBITION OR A DISCO UNICORN THEME PRIVATE PARTY, EVERYONE ALWAYS USES THE SAME LANGUAGE TO DESCRIBE THE SPACE.

TIMELESS. ENERGIZING. MAGIC. BRILLIANT COLOR.

SURE, WE PAY THE RENT, BUT REALLY THO FIGURE THAT'S THE COST THAT COMES WITH BEING CURATORS OF AN INCREDIBLY COLORFUL WELL OF CREATIVE ENERGY, a space that owns itself, OUR FACTORY. all make art here.

NOW SHOWING

Avrum Vremmie Gratch captures elemental moments of life on film as time passes.
Richard Korocinski captures fantastic moments of life on film when the work at hand begins to take off. Kara Rozzi captures moments in motion on Advanced Photo System (APS) film exploring open landscapes. RJ Armstrong captures moments of stillness on 35mm film exploring in-between spaces. The Hubble Telescope captures light in time with Visible Light Images traveling through space.

Time passes.

The digital era begins. Richard Korocinski passes. Advanced Photo System (APS) film is no longer manufactured. Open landscapes are paved over by new development. The in-between spaces disappear. Avrum Vremmie Gratch passes. Light continues traveling through space and time as the universe expands.
