Flatfile


For those of you who may have found the original art in my last post to be distasteful or simply uninspiring, do not despair. There is plenty of fantastic art on display at the Art Space building, located at the Northwest corner of 43rd and Walnut Streets just east of Main. This free show is called the Kansas City Flatfile and features the work of 171 area artists, ranging from students and beginners to professors and professionals. Most of the work is contained in portfolios in file drawers (hence the name flatfile), but there are also wall displays curated by the gallery's directors. The event is also unique in that all proceeds from the sales go directly to the artists.

The photo above was taken a year or two back of the Artspace's project wall by Jenn, who also has some stuff on display at the exhibit.

Another artist whose daily drawings I've been enjoying is T-Bit, who is completing/displaying a drawing for every day of 2008.

Back to the drawing board...

My brother went to that "flat file" exhibit. He didn't like it.
