Spring/Break Art Show 2022: That’s What You Get!

Presented by Yellow Cat Gallery

For Spring/Break Art Show 2022 in NYC, Yellow Cat Gallery took over three booths with That’s What You Get!, a visually arresting curatorial project inspired by an apocalyptic reimagining of the Library of Alexandria crossed with an Apple Store. Our concept explored truth, myth, and disillusionment in the digital age through a striking mix of sculpture, painting, video, and kinetic installation. The show caught the attention of ArtNews and other media outlets, affirming Yellow Cat Gallery’s bold approach to producing timely and thought-provoking exhibitions.

The exhibition featured over a dozen works confronting themes of spiritual emptiness, misinformation, and the cost of belief systems. From Dan Christoffel’s haunting American Crucifix to Dasha Bazanova’s absurdist ceramic-video hybrids and Dave Alexander’s glazed ceramic Naked Lunch, a candy-colored chaos—satirizing consumption and sensuality with playful irreverence. From Jordain Lee’s bristling Crab Throne to Andrew Galpern’s poetic fragments of memory, the exhibition offered a “naked breakfast, lunch, and dinner” of contemporary anxieties—served with satire, sincerity, and a touch of existential dread. 

Artists: LIZ & VAL, Frank Olt, Dan Christoffel, Jourdain Jongwon Lee, James Prez, Andrew Galpern, Dasha Bazanova and Dave Alexander.
