Hackworth Ashley: Celebrity Fantasy

NEW YORK, NY, October 27, 2006 - Broadway Gallery is pleased to announce the
opening of Hackworth Ashley's debut NYC exhibit, curated by Steven Psyllos.
Scheduled to run from November 1st to the 15th at Broadway Gallery (473
Broadway, 7th Floor, NY, NY 10013), the collection will feature Ashley's
controversial "Celebrity Fantasy" series of paintings, as well his video
work, photography, music, sculpture and collage.

ADHD is the first inkling of the human mind adjusting to the current
oversaturation of stimuli in the modern world.The brain is mutating to
become equipped to cope and I think the condition should be cultivated, not
medicated.

This series of images is a representation of a transformational stage in the
things that I make. I spent a long time working on my "Celebrity Fantasy"
series but am now exploring a way to envelope everything I do: Music, moving
image and still-image making. I'm constantly switching between mediums and
am trying to master the art of multi-tasking by harnessing the powers of
ADHD.This is a showcase of the different narrative paths that I could take.

Being bombarded everyday with a multitude of images, sounds and sensations
only makes me want to produce a multitude of images, sounds and sensations.
