It's always a good thing when a new art space opens. Tonight is the opening party for Gigantic Art Space in Tribeca, with a show called D Troit curated by Trevor Schoonmaker.

Update: That was certainly anti-climactic. We went down there, but there was a big badly-organized line that wasn't moving, so we left. Not gigantic enough, apparently.
The line moved pretty quickly for us and it was great inside! Although at one point it got crowded, the energy of the space was quite interesting, with different areas for the eclectic showing. One of the areas was an old elevator shaft that had been floored in. For the art, the light boxes were unique and powerful and some of the photographs were stunning. It would be hard to complain about the hor d'oevres and the Tanqueray martinis as well.
I'd recommend returning for a look now that the opening is over.
