(

Some galleries have funny names. "The Hole" on Manhattan`s popular entertainment mile Bowery (312 Bowery, New York  theholenyc) seems to specialize in experimental & avantgardist art. They have frequently interesting shows. Recently I saw an exhibition with works  by Budapest-based artist Botond Keresztesi, called “The Opium Smoker`s Dream”.
