Bobby Cato of Groove Arts Collective and Shane Pomajambo of Art Whino are two of my favorite DCers continuing to invigorate the DC art world by bringing the metro area exciting exhibitions that challenge the viewer's ideas of contemporary art. Art Whino's newest exhibition, "Block Party," is an exceptional new installation that will also serve as a reflection on art pricing and buying. Solo artist Daniel Fleres & 10 others participating in this exhibition are set to display hundreds of small paintings on wooden blocks.
The exhibition will be a large installation of these little wood pieces varying in depth that are designed to be displayed singly, in groupings and even as collaboration pieces. They directly address his dedicated following of young, new collectors with this installation, challenging the idea that good art has to be unattainable to be valuable. The exhibition was designed around the idea that art should be accessible to people of all ages and income levels, & therefore all works in the show will be priced at the same affordable price. As an installation, the exhibition is designed to let you, the buyer, participate in the artistic process as a composer of the forms.
