Drawgasmic: The Art + Illustration + Design Compendium
And another one! Except this one is in St. Louis! Wish I could be there, but I'm hoping my Midwestern compatriots will represent for me while I'm still on vacation in the Jolly Old. :) Five exhibitions for 2010 already.. Looks like a busy year.

"The Drawgasmic exhibition and book is an effort to expose, promote, and push forward the work of international independent artists, illustrators, and designers working today. We, as curators, are trying to create the sort of experience we feel is missing in the in the all to often pompous and institutionalized art world. An experience that combines the talent of hundreds of great artists with a mash-up of unique performances.
"We are excited to be able to document the entire collection in a quality, limited edition coffee table book. The book will exisit as a historical marker of the unique styles and concepts being created by living and working artists of 2010. This book is being released in conjunction with the exhibition in July 2010."
Participants were asked to write an Artist Statement... Here's mine:
"Art is the alchemy of an artist's soul. Whether consciously or subconsciously, we strive continuously to turn our leaden mediums and concepts into gold."
