This turned out to be a great event! With over 150 artists that gave their time the day before the event to paint a picture within 2 1/2 hours to be auctioned off to charity the next day. Art Con was on December 12th and it attracted a crowd. There were over 1000 people that attended the event. NREAZON’s piece created lots of bidders with her piece and somewhere out there is a happy bidder that went home with this piece.
This year’s Art Conspiracy will be held at 511 West Commerce in Dallas. Once again the Art Conspiracy crew will transform an empty warehouse into a one-night-only art gallery and performance space. The event will feature music from Telegraph Canyon, The Crash That Took Me, The Boom Boom Box and RTB2, video installations from Edward Ruiz, art from 150 Dallas area artists and emcee, Paul Slavens, host of KERA-FM’s 90.1 at Night.
Art Conspiracy differs from other arts fundraisers because the artists do their work on site the day before the event. On the eve of Art Conspiracy, artists work in shifts to fill 150 18 x 18 plywood canvasses. During the actual event on Saturday, December 12, all pieces will be sold in rapid-fire live auctions. Starting bids for all pieces is $20.
