DNA-NYC.org Upcoming and Current Exhibitions, Events, Discussions, etc. http://dna-nyc.org/calendar/everything.rdf Like treasure maps, we view these images with only a suspicion of the treasure they might lead one to. The selection of works draws from a wide range of images that present visual thinking from outside the field of fine art. Spawned from necessity, the unique qualities of each image are the direct result of the specificity of the problem each addresses and the question with which each is concerned.
