Rotofugi, that Ukrainian Village spot for all things alien vinyl figurine, fringe toy collectable, and other forms of the pleasantly weird, hosts a new show tonight called "Flower Parade."

Featured are artists (Julie West and Jeremiah Ketner (Chicago), who are both featuring some 2D work that drinks from the fantasmalogical well. (Apparently they both know where that is located.) Rotofugi describes Ketner's work as "dream-like," while West depicts feminine characters caught up in the crazy of their own strange worlds. Plus, they all have really cool hair.

Preview the show here.

Rotofugi, 1953-55 W Chicago, opens tonight from 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. and runs through April 24
