the invisible dog is much like the art work it houses. a multi media of creative and artistic collaborations located @ an historical building in Brooklyn, New York. Historical in it's age but also inventive, not just because of it's current purpose, but from it's original purpose as well. The invisible dog was an old factory in the 1950s until the 1990s that created dog leashes with muzzles in mass productions, and people in America would actually walk down the streets with a wired leash and empty dog muzzle. Women at Studio 54 would be seen with this trendy yet ridiculous accessories. When the fad ended the factory was abandoned until a french man with a degree in theatre came to America to resurrect it. The old beautiful red brick factory in Brooklyn was then made into an exhibit of art, a theatre, and studio space for young and happening artists. A building that was molded into anything any artist that strolled by wanted it to be. Not to mention the theatre built in the basement. Each floor either spaces/ studios for artists, vintage accessories on sale, a theatre, or artists varying exhibits. Not to mention the elevator that takes you to each floor is an actual moving room, a room that's an art exhibit all in itself. Not to mention the vintage accessories, like my white leather hand studded bracelet, originally 5$ and then given to me for free by the french man himself, is a great way to remember the invisible dog forever.
