and it features some of the nations finest contemporary independent and gallery artists.
I was able to attend this event along with fellow students a few weeks ago and it was truly a wonderful experience. The event was held at a hotel and from the parking garage to the restrooms on the 2nd floor almost every area of it was chalked wall to wall with work from different artists.
In the brief 2 hours thatI was there I must have seen over hundreds of paintings, photographs, sculptures and installations from artists all across america.
From chandeliers in the swimming pools, to beautiful paintings made from oil and silk, the amount of variety in the artist's creations were both fascinating, provoking, and inspiring.
As stated in an earlier blog, I mentioned that the more art I see the more inspired I am and that still rings true in this case. In fact, I saw so much great art that by the end of the day I had a bit of a headache from all the pieces and it took me the rest of the evening to process it all before I finally was able to rest my mind.
Emerge was definitely worth the time and money to attend and I highly recommend that artists and art lovers attend this event next year and partake in the great joy of contemporary art.
