SPRING/BREAK Art Show 2025 NYC
Interior / Exterior
Location: 75 Varick & Canal St. New York, NY

Yellow Cat Gallery has been a recurring presence at the SPRING/BREAK Art Show in New York. The gallery’s installations regularly blend sculpture, painting, photography, and found objects, often playing with American & Alien iconography, and themes of surveillance, folklore, alienation, and control.

In the 2025’s show, Yellow Cat Gallery curated two artist’s Artist Spotlight booths.
Dasha Bazanova’s Anomaly Farm reimagines Orwell’s classic through a Bakhtinian lens, transforming it into a surreal carnival of power and illusion. Human-eyed animals, alien relics, and pop culture fragments collide to expose a world where control masks itself in absurdity.

Curated by Yellow Cat Gallery, Dave Alexander’s booth suggests that the American flag has been co-opted—by Dream Whip. For Alexander, this processed dessert box is how we view or flag: a symbol of fake patriotism, hollow nationalism, and the rise of authoritarianism. Yet his ceramic “Snapshots” of everyday American life push back, quietly insisting that beneath the noise and division, our shared humanity remains.
Yellow Cat Gallery continues to support a growing network of artists who share their commitment to layered storytelling and psychological depth.
As they look ahead, Yellow Cat Gallery remains committed to SPRING/BREAK’s experimental spirit, using each iteration as a chance to explore new visual languages and challenge audiences to question the systems that shape belief, beauty, and belonging.
