Jason + Griffin = Sicker than ANY mufckin artist you know!....Yeah I said it.

So..... my boy Jason Griffin ^^^^^^ is a BEAST. Don't believe me? Go ask your mother. He's a magician, no wand, just a paint brush. For him a canvas is strictly optional, in fact for him a paint brush is strictly optional. If art were wine, he'd be Jesus holding a glass of water..... 'Nough said.
Lucky for you his work is being featured at Leo Kesting Gallery located at 812 Washington St and Gansevoort. This series of Paintings and Polaroids in particular bring to life his most recent collection, "80's babies". In this collection the subjects are all people born in the 80's. So instead of your usual nostalgic spin on 80's Retro, he takes it forward, to the now. Creating contemporary images of, well, Us! The seeds planted in concrete, fertilized by pipe dreams, poverty, and seemingly endless odds. This exhibit proudly proclaims that we are much more than roses that happened to grow out of concrete. We are two words that simultaneously define a decade while foreshadowing the new artistic awakening that is to come. We are: "Eighties. Babies."
Get ya life together. Check him out. Today. Right now....
