“EASY APPLE”

Benjamin Booker,

“used to be Yellow”

6 Artists connected by 2 cities:

New Orleans and New york.

This vibrant display of works was brought together by Pop Gun founder Gunner Dongeiux.

“To New Yorkers I often describe New Orleans as the Island of the Lotus Eaters; a place where past and present slip together, where appeased by ambrosia we float buoyed in the temporal tide. This Big Easy condition is the reason many leave, to enter the jetstream of the big city rat race, to build a name in the city that never sleeps. Strangely, it's the same condition that lures them back in. The city holds a power of self-preservation (what Ronnie Lamarque calls resilience) that lets what's left linger, in a way that seems like you've never left.

Easy Apple lures in fresh eyes to the New Orleans arts scene, bridging the gap between New York and Nola. Each artist embodies an association with the city, as told through the lens of a homecoming curator.” - DONGEiux
