It Takes All Kinds Opening Reception
Saturday, March 7, 2009 / 6 p.m. - 11 p.m.

Curated by artist Ken Davis, "It Takes All Kinds," looks at how street artists have moved from the world to the gallery, and in some cases back again. All the artists featured in this show have amazing drawing and painting skills, much of which were honed through graffiti, sign painting, tattoo design and illustration. Once these skills left the street they became focused on incredibly beautiful works of fine art, ranging from delicate burned wood drawings, (do not miss this work by Matt Richie), to large scale, three dimensional urban landscapes by Task One. This show promises to be a creative circus, the likes of which have not been seen in Alameda before. Music will be provided by invited DJ's, Wyatt Gurp, Harbour and Tekasaurus Rex, and there will be a live silk screening demo by Political Gridlock.
