A Little Shock and Awe at Three Walls

Wesley Harvey is showing his kissed again series of fine art china and paintings at Three Walls Gallery in the Blue Star Arts Complex during CAM.  Moving from his previously labelled "cute" ceramics into newly controversial hard-core subject matter, the work is sure to ignite fires that burn as bright as the red wall the small paintings hang on.

High Art and High Fashion collide.

Can you elevate an object of High Fashion in a completely different direction to be High Art?

Can they coexist together or do they beg to be separated?

Here we go kids! CAM is about to be in full swing! We are live on the scene at Blue Star and there's a lot to see!

Tacos? Did somebody say "Tacos?"

VOA will be covering the Kick Off Party for CAM at Blue Star on Thursday night from 6-9pm.  Dress for the occasion, you never know who's there taking pictures! The very next day, we will be at ArtPace  for Taco Friday.  As a matter of fact, I'm willing to bet that you can get tacos at BOTH of these events.  

Mmmmmm...taaaaccooosss...
