Being in SoHo for the first time was quite the experience. Seeing while learning was the best technique for me; walking through the streets while hearing stories of how artists illegally moved into abandon warehouses solely for the space for a studio. It's amazing to witness how SoHo has evolved, to see its history. With that being said, I've come to learn how history unfolds a mystery.
Loren Munk is a SoHo artist who had his debut in 1981

"It's my theory that art is less mysterious than believed. That the force we call art is creative energy passing through individuals, networks and associations. Artists' communities and neighborhoods are the frameworks of this circuitry. By understanding the placement of these creative components and their geographical relationships to each other, one can begin to recognize how the energy flows through these channels. By exposing this history, one helps understand the mystery."
