Toronto, ON – Project 165 is psyched to announce Methinks Presents’ NYC Retro Show, a mAshUp multiMeDia s___c____r_A_p__b oo k-themed exhibition featuring photos, sound art, video, installation, postcard art, sketches, journal entries, artifacts, handmade halloween masks and other creative contributions by participants of Methinks Presents’ NYC Roadtrip #9.

NYC Roadtrip is not your typical travel service. Artist-run, community-focused and tailored for the artist’s budget – and informed by relational aesthetics, psychogeography and DIY culture – it is multiform, theoretically and practically. It is a unique opportunity for creative adventure-seekers to network, get inspired, workshop special projects, conduct field research and explore everyday urban life beyond its usual context; to experience the non-tourist side of New York City and all its boroughs; to plug into a vibrant community of creative travelers; and, overall, to gain invaluable, lasting life-insight.

After each NYC Roadtrip, passengers and crew alike reunite to participate in a multimedia group exhibition that explores individual and collective perspectives on various New York City-inspired subjects, such as mapping, travel as risk-taking, wanderlust, the meta-architecture of street art, the city as playground, and urban myth-making.

PARTICIPANTS
Adrian Forrow, Andrzej Tarasiuk, Anya Wassenberg, Amanda Nunes, Brian Rideout, Catherine Nomura, Chico Gupta, David Figueroa, Dave Pijuan-Nomura, Deena Jacobs, Jacqueline Lane, James Spencer, Janet Attard, Jeanetta Dunn, Jesse Albert, Jenny Santos, Jonna Pederson, Karol Orzechowski, Lisa Pijuan-Nomura, Mark Cabuena, Meika Palmer, Mike Vigneux, Rick Kresta, Robb Mirsky, Ryan Ringer, Shannon Gibson, Tariq Mohamedali + others.
