In the summer of 2022, Canadian-based producers David Galpern and Charles Roy launched ArtsDistrict Brooklyn in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. But I’ve spoken to over a dozen people some only on background because of potential legal implications who allege they are owed money related to work they performed for the venue.
“We re in this unique situation where we re not a brand, but we re not a promoter. We re this modern version of what it could be or where it s heading,” Rob Toma says.
ArtsDistrict Brooklyn (David Galpern and Charles Roy, co-founders), an immersive and experiential arts venue, will open this July, in Greenpoint (25 Franklin Street) the media hub of Brooklyn. ArtsDistrict Brooklyn (a/k/a AD/BK) will feature the US premiere of “Limitless AI” by internationally-renowned artists Ferdi & Eylul Alici of Ouchhh Studio (Istanbul), creators of the award-winning 2018 global sensation, “Poetic AI,” which was seen by 1 million visitors at Atelier des Lumières in Paris. For AD/BK, the artist couple has reimagined and expanded their original work as “Limitless AI,” a 70-minute show, and for the first time, united the pieces with a narrative story consisting of five chapters, including “Poetic AI.”
