It may have piqued your interest throughout the last twelve months as we posted selections from our online Impossible Project x Ace gallery — and if you entered photos, thank you for fueling this incredible beast that inspired us daily. We’ve now selected a couple dozen images to be included in our physical gallery show One Year In — crowd-sourced and a thing of beauty — at Ace Hotel New York. We’re throwing a little party with Impossible tonight in the lobby to celebrate, and you can see the show in our gallery space through December 14.
Our gallery show of instant analog photography on Ace Hotel x Impossible Project Film “24 Hours at Ace” migrated from Ace Hotel New York to The Impossible Project Space Tokyo.
The exhibit features works by friends of Ace Hotel and The Impossible Project including Andie Acosta, Chloe Aftel, Elijah Wood, Adam Goldberg, Nicole Held, Araks Yeramyan, Jeremy Kost, Anne Bowerman, Michael Nevin, Steve Olson, Dave Ortiz, Devon Turnbull, Pat Sansone and work captured by influencers in Japan curated by The Impossible Project Space Tokyo.
If you’re lucky enough to be in the hood, it’s up until July 20. If you’re not, you can pick up some keepsake tees on our shop.
