Ranjit Bhatnagar of moonmilk.com just got a solo photography exhibit at Brooklyn’s Atlantic Avenue subway station, showcasing his art in 8 4’x6′ lightboxes.
What makes this exhibit extra cool is how it came about:
The MTA’s curator found my photos by searching Flickr and we used Flickr to choose and narrow down the photos for the exhibit. [Link]
More about the artist:
Ranjit Bhatnagar … works with interactive and sound installations, with scanner photography, and with internet-based collaborative art. Recent works have been exhibited at the Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley, the Parc d’aventures scientifiques in Belgium, Flux Factory in Queens, in the Artbots series at Eyebeam Atelier and the Pratt Institute in New York, and the Mermaid Show at the Williamsburg Art and Historical Center in Brooklyn. He recently taught [title garbled] at Parsons School of Design, a studio course and rock band with homemade instruments.
Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, Ranjit received a BA from U.C. Berkeley and an MS from the University of Pennsylvania, and was certified carnie trash by the Coney Island Sideshow School in 2002. He lives in Brooklyn and works at GameLab. [Link]
Show-off.
gorgeous pictures. Bay area folks are just so talented =)
Oooohhh! I love it when Brooklyn is mentioned on SM… I see these pictures a few times a week (the stop is just a block from my place) and like the vivid colors. Congrats on the show, Ranjit!
OMG brilliant. Will have to go check it out. O so NY!
So A N N A, are you going to try to get in on this? 😉
Very cool. Can’t wait to see it. I sniff a story…
Some very “nifty” photos in this collection…Nothing like looking through a lightbox at a big positive!
These are amazing….I live right up the street by bergen but haven’t gotten off at atlantic in a while, can’t wait to go by there and take a look
I hate L.A
