Hey all,

Didn't see notice of this here, which makes me sad, because we've been working hard on it. (Shoutout to the guy who posted about the Z-Trip "Sound and Vision" disc... that's how I found y'all!)

Art Alliance is a huge group show that'll be taking place in Chicago this summer. Curated by Shepard Fairey and featuring works from board favorites including:

C215, Camille Rose Garcia, Clare Rojas, Cleon Peterson, CYRCLE, Dana Louise Kirkpatrick, Deedee Cheriel, DFace, Dzine, Estevan Oriol, Evan Hecox, FAILE, Gary Panter, HAZE, James Cauty, Jamie Reid, Jen Stark, Jim Houser, Keith Haring, Lee Quinones, Mark Mothersbaugh, Monica Canilao, POSE, Ravi Zupa, RETNA, Revok, Ryan McGinness, Shepard Fairey, Space Invader, Stanley Donwood, Swoon, Thomas Campbell, Winston Smith, WK Interact

Tickets are $10 an available via the AA website above. We'll also (yes) have prints and works for sale.

Let me know if any of you have questions! I know it's weird when someone just pops in on your internet board to "sell"s**t, and I hate that... so I'm here to chat as well.

Best,

-raihan

I've posted about it twice. No one here seems to care. I'm really looking forward to it

[vinzc]

I'll likely be there! Let me know when y'all decide to go

[yoyosh]

The first weekend in August here in beautiful Chicago. The same weekend as Lollapalooza. The show's promoters are one and the same

[opalis141]

Will you send out a pdf before the show (for those that are based in NYC/elsewhere)?

Ha hahahahaaaa. Aaah haha. No? Haha. I am serious.. If you live there.. I thougt that maybe you seen a green sort of large sculpture? Near a tunnel? Might be totally different town or even time. No I'm not on drugs.

There's public art all over Chicago. The most famous of which is the Picasso sculpture (and of course the one remaining Banksy) www.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/chi-chicagodays-picasso-story,0,1344585.story

Not sure of any specific large green sculpture.

enjoy your drugs!

I have been looking forward to this show, Chicago native here. We don't ever get shows like this, so I'm pumped! Do you know which artists will ber there in person?

[raihan]

haha. hey guys.

about a catalog and other art: we're doing way more than prints. signed up for the email list at www.artalliance.com yet? that might be your best bet at the moment.

about public art/murals ... you'll see.

[raihan]

BUMP. Since the last time I was here... we've added:

How and Nosm
Andrew Schoultz
Neck Face
Skullphone
Rich Colman
Tim Armstrong (yes, from Rancid/Op Ivy/the Transplants)
Maya Hayuk

murals are shaping up to be A++++ too

[yoyosh]

Hey raihan what about Ben Eine?

[Deleted]

$10 to get in and see the art. It's a joke.

Ploppi, what's such a joke about paying $10? I for one am quite excited about this show coming to Chicago. Already got my ticket. $10 is well worth it in my mind for all the effort being put  into this exhibition. Do you even live near/around Chicago? If your answer is no, then why even bother commenting? Or is your job full time troll? All in all buddy, get a life.

[bullysonzx10r]

Would love a PDF. Please...

is it a show or is it an exhibition with art for sale ?

I never heard of any art exhibition with art for sale charging an entrance fee thats all.

[raihan]

yoyosh: sadly, not this year.

bsimkin: thanks.

PDFs are still in the works and even then i'm not sure if we can post publicly... if you're a serious collector, speak with your usual contacts at obey/subliminal, please! they'll know before i will. ha!

Just a note on this...while specific details seem to be few and far between on how the event will work and prices/availability etc of the artwork I do know tickets for the event go up in price soon. For anyone coming to chicago for this and/or Lollapalooza I'll see ya around!

[A.R.T.]

There will be plenty of art for sale.

Art should be free and a show that charges people to see the art is making it elitist.

I do understand that some guys like Fairey etc love money and love to sell images that they put their name to.

  Money money money aint it funny it's a greedy art world.
