Join us at the ART150 Gallery in Jersey City for the closing brunch of the thought-provoking group show entitled "I Prefer Not To." Curated by Kele McComsey, Director of Mana Contemporary, this exhibition explores the profound impact of the iconic phrase "I would prefer not to" from Herman Melville's Bartleby the Scrivener. The simple addition of "would" and "prefer" creates a complex scenario where the appropriate response is not readily available. Through the artworks on display, the participating artists, including Abhishek Tuiwala with his piece "The Economy of Class," aim to connect with the spirit of Bartleby's passive resistance. This event, taking place on Sunday, November 19th from 1-4pm, is free and open to all. Don't miss the opportunity to engage with the importance that artists hold in these times and witness their powerful interpretations of passive resistance. Visit the ART150 Gallery at 157A First Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302 and be part of this unique experience.
