 State of the Art Spotlight:

Food Art!

food art enews image.jpg

Who's hungry? We've noticed many themes in State of the Art but one major one seems to be celebrating food and drink!


State of the Art gives us all a window into what's going on in the artist community. It captures a collective moment and sometimes that moment is a snack, drink or a good meal. 


We had fun going through the gallery and gobbling up all these artworks.  And this is just the appetizer! 


Visit State of the Art this week and see them all!

View photos of the work and check back soon for video interviews with all the participating artists. 


"... a thunderous and ultimately beautiful statement affirming that all art is valid"
