The reception is on Friday, March 11th, 6 to 8pm.  The title \u201c\u30ad\u30e2\u30ab\u30ef Kimo-Kawa\u201d is Japanese slang combining two opposites: Kimochiwasui (or Kimoi in slang) and Kawaii.  Kimoi means ugly, disgusting, gross, or weird. Many young people use this word for any expression of unpleasantness, and Kawaii means cute, pretty, lovely, or charming.  These two words are usually incompatible but the word Kimo-Kawa designates a liminal zone: an object, person or character in-between cute and repulsive, somewhere on the borderline. \u2018Ugly-cute\u2019 might be nearly disgusting but also fun and somehow endearing.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the artists or art visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skrlart.com\/#!current-exhibition\/capd\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.skrlart.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wednesday, March 02 to March 16, 2016 Ground Floor Gallery 343 5th Street (off 5th Avenue), Brooklyn, NYC 11215<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-62677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=62677"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62677\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":62679,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62677\/revisions\/62679"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=62677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=62677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=62677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
