This past weekend i attended a showing of several works of at the Gallery know as the invisible dog in Brooklyn New York. The gallery, located on Bergen St., opened only six months ago and is relatively new i was particularly interested in viewing a specific peice at on display known at The Ant by Xavier Roux. Which is a large quite fantastic sculpture of an ant with atop hat based on a french poem of the same title. The poem is as follows
An 18-meter long ant With a hat on its head That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
An ant pulling a cart Full of penguins and ducks That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
An ant speaking French, Speaking Latin and Javanese, That doesn’t exist,
that doesn’t exist.
Hey! Why not?
While there i spoke to the gallery dirctor named Simon who was willing to answer a few questions about the work on display and the space itself. The space is not as large as some galleries but has a nice collection of work inside i found the place quite interesting like a workshop of sorts.
