Fantastic Universe: A Forces of Dorkness Art Show

October 14, 2016 - November 1, 2016
Opening Reception: Friday, October 14th • 7-10pm

From the artist, Forces of Dorkness, comes a universe of strange characters brought to life in this brand new collection of paintings. Fantastic Universe combines the sights and sounds of one guy’s idea of what it is to be a creature in deep space. That's right, sights AND sounds! The artist will also perform a soundtrack created just for these works, on opening night.

“These are the beings I think I would find if I were to jump in a rocket and explore space itself, not just other planets.”

The opening reception will be on Friday, October 14th from 7 to 10pm and the artwork will remain up through November 1st. Artwork will be available for purchase. Admission is free and all ages are welcome.

The Return of the Pointman! Futura's "New Horizons" Solo Exhibition in June in Detroit

Reblogged from SpankyStokes.com...

SpankyStokes.com | Vinyl Toys, Art, Culture, & Everything Inbetween: The Return of the Pointman! Futura's "New Horizons...:

"Now it is time for Futura, pioneer of abstract street art that had been active since the '70s, to really shine on his own. Opening on June 18th, 2016 at the Library Street Collective in Detroit, Futura's latest solo exhibition is entitled New Horizons and it will feature all the imagery that fans love McGurr's art for: gyroscopes, nebulae, and other abstracted structures as well as some of his Pointman characters."

MIST Solo Show at Wall Works New York Opens Saturday June 6 in the Bronx

Worth posting: A gallery called Wall Works New York in the Bronx will be hosting French graffiti legend MIST in his first solo exhibition ever in New York! Opening reception is Saturday June 6 from 5-8pm. There will also be a limited-edition print available through the gallery, so it's highly recommended that you make your way to Wall Works, which is located at:

 39 Bruckner Blvd, Bronx, NY. 

Why am I telling you about a gallery show? Because MIST has designed some of my favorite art toys. We even have a couple in the shop, available for purchase: his Lucius character (to the right), and the giant Holybrikus. Buy your own MIST toys here.

MIST's toy designs mimic his signature angular characters and shapes he applies to walls and canvases. You can even see echoes of the classic MIST toy shapes in the 2D piece above. Looking at the toys next to his graffiti and more abstract painterly piece, you can definitely pick out a signature style which is consistent throughout his work.
