Press Release Body: Nudity, violence and controversy are just a few words that
hardly encapsulate the work of Alex ab Barrera A product of the seedy, drug fueled

his talents and started producing work for magazines such as GADA, Ocean Drive

clad, heavily armed vixens, castrated nazis, pissed off robots, confrontations with
authorities and unholy churches being desecrated comprise most of ab\'s focus in

the very least taking notice.

comprising of work that never made it into the show along with the story describing

include a special feature, a raffle ($1 gets you in) for one of ab's earlier works,
" I'm a real boy". Food, wine, live dj and good people with bad intentions.
