Dash Snow’s friends and family have joined together to create an open memorial exhibition at Deitch Projects, where the facade of the gallery has been painted over with a fire extinguisher version of Dash’s tag, SACER.

We have asked friends to bring photographs and video of Dash and works of art made for Dash and works made in his memory. Friends have also brought in special works by Dash from their own collections. A group of previously unseen Polaroids from Dash’s studio are also included.

The memorial project also has an open wall where Dash’s friends and admirers can write, paint or paste artworks and texts in his memory. Visitors are encouraged to bring flowers to throw into the main gallery where images of Dash and his own works are exhibited. Dash’s community of friends is invited to bring in additional images and works during the run of the show.

The latest book by NYC artist Dash Snow has just entered the Colette online store. Always manoeuvring on the edge of social norms and putting his own physical capacities to the test, it is the quest for a social model of life that characterises Dash Snow’s entire oeuvre.

In addition to the assemblages and sculptures focusing on excess and withdrawal, love and transitoriness, the artist presents around 200 new collages in this book. The 242 page book is now available for 90 Euros.
