Four unique artists.
One chef.
One living organism.
The art defined by the group.
The food paired with the art.
The space itself defined and created by both.
***All new original works, sketches, drawings and prints***
No gallery has done this before...
There's a unique intimacy when it comes to viewing art. The artist has spent hours upon hours, days and months to create works that are meant to touch us in some way or another. The collector has waited months upon months, excited to see what their favorite artist has come up with this time. The doors open, we flood in, view, feel and rub shoulders on occasion with our favorites. Its an open space filled with collectors, artists, journalists and passerby's. A bar serving wine and beer can usually be found along with some cheeses, fruit and an occasional small bite. The space has seen many different faces, brought to life by the art that graces her walls. What if the ART was defined specifically by a group of artists, the FOOD defined by the art itself and the SPACE was defined by both?

Pretty sweet idea, but a lack of rewards that would cater to lower-dollar-amount, higher-backer-numbers, seems like this could fail. Also, an expression of what exactly a "Showcard" is, should be available.
