UFA® X NuHotel MTV VMA art show.


Last month Urban Folk Art® curated a show at the NU Hotel in conjunction with the MTV Music Video Awards at the Barclay Center. It wasn’t done with MTV, it just opened the same weekend as the MTV VMA’s and was close enough to the Barclay center.UFA® Chose artists who's work had been used in some regard in the music industry at one time or another. The show included Chris CYCLE, KEO, Pete Conlon, Jason Mitchel, and Adam Suerte. All of the artists picked by UFA® Had some tie to Music in some way within their art. It was a great layout. Here are some photos of the joint. It will be up until the hotel finds another show to put up, so check it out while you can, have a cocktail, and a cheese platter, as Jason did 2 nights in a  row! The work is priced to sell, so any interest contact info@urbanfolkart.com

Brooklyn Bridge 130th Anniversary Group Art Show



Urban Folk Art® Gallery will be honoring the 130th anniversary of the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge with a group show of over 30 local artists of varying mediums. In their fourth show of this type, artists will be showing their homages to the bridge with one common element. In February 2013, curator and contributing artist Adam Suerte acquired five 5 gallon buckets of surplus paint from the NY Department of Transit that was used to do touch ups on the Brooklyn Bridge (http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/02/05/surplus-paint-from-the-brooklyn-bridge-now-could-be-yours/). Each artist in the group show will be using the
“Chocolate Brown Enamel” in some way within their piece. Painters, comic artists, graphic designers, photographers, screen printers, tattooers, graffiti artists, toy designers and artists of other mediums will be contributing. Suerte, as one of his pieces has repackaged some of this paint in a limited edition quart size cans that will be for sale at the show. If you ever wanted to own a piece of the bridge, this could be considered pretty close.


The show opens May 24th from 7-10 and will remain up until the end of June.paintcansmockup
Adam Suerte's repackaged surplus paint cans signed and numbered will be for sale at the show
