Previews: Lola – “The Younger” @ 80 Forty Gallery

Posted by sleepboy, December 10, 2014

This Saturday night (December 13th) in Los Angeles at 80 Forty Gallery, Lola will be opening the first solo we have seen from her since 2012 (covered).

Baby Tattooville ’14: Gift Bags

Posted by Scott Bailey, October 8, 2014

Even though Baby Tattooville founder Bob Self explained that his vision for the gift bags is that they are “souvenirs of a remarkable weekend,” any visitors would say they are much more than that. They are a bounty of remarkable art, including 3 foot by 4 foot signed giclee print of the Art Jam painting, original pieces from Joe Sorren, Jeff Soto, Eric Fortune, Miss Mindy and Brian Smith. In total, there are more than twenty items including limited edition prints, vinyl figures, books, original […]

Baby Tattooville ’14: Art Jam!

Posted by Scott Bailey, October 7, 2014

Bringing together 14 accomplished and sought after artists in the lowbrow art world is not easily done, and a feat worth noting all on its own. But having those artists collaborate on a single piece of art, creating it in a day and a half, then have prints signed and distributed all within a weekend is nothing short of miraculous. AM was on hand to catch the entire process, from the blank canvas to the last ten minutes when the piece was laid flat to allow […]

The event is in full mingle mode as attendees join and speak with artists as they create the personal works for this year’s gift bags.

Below are pictures including Brandi Milne sketching for a collector, […]

Baby Tatooville ’14: Things Start to Get Intimate at the Artist Panel

Posted by Scott Bailey, October 3, 2014

Perhaps the most notable thing about Baby Tattooville is how personal it is. Unlike any other event on earth, attendees are invited to spend time with the artists, watch them create and in general everyone gets to know each other. What better way to get things going then to have the event organizer Bob Self introduce each artist, have them each say a little about themselves, their experiences with the event and what they plan on doing for this year’s event. Official participants this year include Brom, Laurie Lee Brom, […]
