Urban Art at the RRCA

Riverfront Renaissance Center for the Arts

September 18th thru October 10th, 2009

Curated by Dr. Debra Miller and Liz Nicklus

Urban art is about uninhibited self-expression, an appeal to the disenfranchised, a new aesthetic that defies academic tenets and captures the harsh realities of the street and the world. The contemporary art of the city, from Pop and Graffiti to Found Objects and Dumpster Diving, to designer toys and anime, has transformed fashion, fine art, and popular culture.

Artists: AZMA, Frances Nielah Bradley, Demer, David Foss, Joroko,Will Kasso, Peter Krsko, Karey Maurice, Karen McDonnell and Tony Cortosi, Paper Monster, Leon Rainbow, Vince Romaniello, and Burnell Yow!


Reception: Friday, September 18, 6-9 pm
