SUMMARY:Dead of Winter: Tattoo Artists Exhibit at First Fridays
DESCRIPTION:DATE\nMarch 1st from 7pm-10pm\nLocation\nSmokestack 62 E 7th St\, Dubuque\, IA 52001\nGet Directions > \nEvent Details\nJoin us Friday\, February 2nd from 7pm-10pm at Smokestack. \nThis unique exhibition showcases the talents of a talented group of local and regional tattoo artists as they push the boundaries of artistic expression through mixed media on canvas. \n“We as tattoo artists are delighted to have this platform to showcase our passion on canvas\,” expressed the artists involved in the exhibit. “Often perceived as cheap imitators or ‘lowbrow’ within art communities\, we have witnessed a shift in the past decade. Tattoo artists are now being recognized for their quality standards and increasing popularity\, thanks to the support of collectors. This fine art exhibit created by local tattoo artists provides an opportunity for us to challenge ourselves\, explore new mediums\, and redefine expectations.” \nThe Dead of Winter art exhibit represents a significant step for tattoo artists to break free from stereotypes and showcase their skills in a different context. Despite the seasonal affective depression that often acts as a creative hurdle\, these artists continue to push forward to express their artistic talents. \nAristotle’s words\, “It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light\,” resonate with the artists involved in this exhibition. They view the Dead of Winter art exhibit as their light\, and they are deeply grateful for the chance to share it with the local community. \nArtists featured: \nKurt Urbain\nKarl Williams\nAli Lynch\nJoshua Clicquennoi\nGriffin Benson\nJulia “Frank” Sofolo\nGreg Howell\nKaitlyn Clemen\nTaylor Ross\nAngela AJ Jones\nAlec Bauer\nCristina Cruz\nBrandon Nalley\nLive Music: TBA \nRSVP on Facebook
