The End of the World is Here…Again explores the themes of living in a society where the next apocalypse is always just around the corner.  Whether it is real or imagined we live in a world where the media, government, and entertainment industries are continually confronting us with new “End of the World” scenarios.  Ranging from infectious diseases, terrorist attacks, economic crises, nuclear Armageddon, to a zombie apocalypses, we are living in a state of constant heightened fear, or worse- completely desensitized and apathetic to the world we live in.

The Graffiti Warehouse Gallery is located in The Graffiti Warehouse, a 14,000 square foot exhibition space walls covered with street art and graffiti from some of the best artists in the world, including artists from Baltimore, New York, Los Angeles and Paris.  One of the finest collections of art in the city of Baltimore, The Warehouse door opens onto the world famous Graffiti Alley-the only place in the city of Baltimore where it is legal to spray paint graffiti.
