Art N Hustle has teamed up with The Christopher Miro Gallery & Villa 211, and The Artkitextural Foundation, to bring you this urban art event. Little Secrets, Regrets, Joys… and Truths will begin on June 11^th, 2011 at 7PM with an hour long invitation-only private viewing for collectors, museum curators and press. Then will official open at 8PM for the general public. There will be live art and musical performances.

Little Secrets, Regrets, Joys… and Truths will showcase a solid line of emerging contemporary and urban art to the South Florida Art scene.  This show will appeal to both sides of the art world – fine and urban.

“” We want to change the perception of what urban art is, a genre that doesn’t get much respect to garner the buying power that others do. This is the first exhibit of many to if not change the minds of the art community at least open them to what “urban” is categorized as.”” says Art N Hustle Founder Corey Knight.

“This will be an art show, a cultural event, a party, and a most joyful spectacle that you will not want to miss.” says Art N Hustle Art Director Nate Dee.

This event is open to the public (On June 11^th – July 2^nd, 2011) and you can RSVP on Facebook or arrive the opening night of the event. Please note that you must be at least 21 years old to purchase alcohol from the bar at the event (Must show I.D).

I’ve been a fan of Stella’s paintings for a minute so I’ll be sure not to let this show pass me by.

“Opening on Friday 12th November, 2010 London Miles Gallery presents an all new group exhibition, entitled The Idol Hours. Revisiting some of the most iconic paintings since the great Renaissance, The Idol Hours sees each of our forty New Contemporary artists recontextualize a historic and personally significant artwork from their own oblique 21st Century point of view.”

Signal are delighted to invite you to our first solo show with the talented German artist, Alke Schmidt. The show is called ‘Feeding The Monster’. The artist has produced a body of of work that is both visually alluring and politically pointed. Her concerns about globalisation and it’s corrosive effect on the environment find mature and fascinating form in this show.

If you love art and you’re in the New York area….

“Things to Come” is a group show featuring 25 artists and their visions of the future, dark and bright.

I’m always a fan of anything that supports local artists/talent. This looks like a show I’ll definitely check out:

“Made In Britain is a themed group exhibition opening on September 10th 2010 in the Atrium area of Westbourne Studios. More than 30 artists living and working in the UK are taking part and have created an unique 24 x 24 inch artwork, inspired by and in celebration of everything quintessentially British. The exhibitions showcase a range of talent, from well known established artists to recent graduates. Its a wonderful chance to get to see what the new generation of British contemporary talent has to offer. Opening night includes a vintage mini installation supplied by the London Mini company, British cider by Brothers and soft drinks provided by firefly.”
