Raw/Cooked presents a year-long series of five exhibitions by under-the-radar Brooklyn artists. Thousands of artists are creating work in Brooklyn every day, affirming the borough as one of the world's creative capitals. To recognize emerging Brooklyn artists and provide a showcase for their work, the Brooklyn Museum, with support from Bloomberg, invited five artists to present their first major museum exhibitions. The artists were given the opportunity to work with the Museum's collection and to present in spaces of their choosing, however unconventional.

Very cool! So psyched for this series which seems to address some of the concerns people had expressed in the NY Times article though I'd imagine this has been in the works since long before the article emerged.
