5×7 On The Road: Dallas A Success, Onward to Houston
Thank you to all who came to Dunn and Brown Contemporary last Friday and Saturday and shopped your hearts out at 5×7. We sold 286 5x7s – a record for any On The Road event. Recession? What recession? Especially exciting to see were children with their parents, picking out work for their very own fledgling art collections.
As you can see, the crowd was large and VERY focused on pulling those tags. (click on the image to see the full Flickr set)
August 28 & 29, 5×7 On The Road travels to Houston’s Inman Gallery – we hope to see you there!
5×7 On The Road: Dallas
August 14 & 15, 5×7 heads to Dallas’ Dunn and Brown Contemporary. The event on Friday is from 5 – 7pm, with the sale beginning at 5:30. Speaking from experience, get there early – Dallas folks LOVE to shop. Then come back on Saturday to look again, and pick up another piece (or pieces). As always each 5×7 is $100, and all proceeds support Arthouse’s FREE exhibitions and educational programs.
A number of artists have made new work especially for Dallas, including Annette Lawrence, Gary Panter, Vernon Fisher, Brian Fridge, Julie Bozzi and Nic Nicosia.

Graydon Parrish – 8×10 Silent Auction Item #9
Special benefit gift of the artist and L Style G Style Magazine
Artist statement:
My life’s work is to reintroduce classical and realist painting in contemporary art and discourse. As a classicist, many of my works have been allegorical, symbols for abstract ideas. As a modernist, these abstract ideas also pay tribute to contemporary events such as the tragedy of September 11th, 2001 and the international AIDS crisis. Freedom Red is my latest art project and White Roses is my first production under this heading. That is, it is the first work of a collective allegory. Alone, it reminds us that life is both beautiful and dynamic. But added to future works, it and they will show us that we still have great, almost insurmountable challenges ahead. In particular, we do not have a cure for HIV/AIDS. Until we do, I will continue to paint for Freedom Red and donate a percentage of each work to HIV/ AIDS charities and others that nurture life, assist the needy and work for equality.
