For a city full of artists whose bedrooms double as studios, the 250-square-foot Lucky Gallery in Red Hook is a kindred spirit.
“I think it’s really a great size,” said Ed Rosko, the local artist who recently opened the gallery. ”I personally like smaller works, which is what the gallery is best suited for. ”
The current exhibit, “A Lucky Find,” features the works of Justin Waldstein (pictured) and David Wallace. Both artists have a background in graphic design, which is especially evident in Wallace’s psychedelic, ’50s pop-culture-influenced works.
The works start at $500, but Rosko said he’s in it for the love of the game.
“At this point I’m not as concerned with making money as I am with displaying art.” Sounds like you can make a purchase and still afford your own small spaces.
“A Lucky Find” is currently hanging at Lucky Gallery (176 Richard St. at Wolcott Street in Red Hook). An opening party will be held on May 25. For information, call (718) 852-9232.
