Can't Get No Satisfacton - Edith Abeyta at Walled City

In the interest of shameless self-promotion I'll just pop in here to pimp Edith Abeyta's show opening tomorrow night at Walled City, which I may have something to do with. Anyways, here we go -

Can't Get No Satisfaction

Bennett, Jeremy Carnahan, Carina DiMarcellis, Mia Farrell, Bean Gilsdorf, Dan Gilsdorf, Andy Jenkins, Michele Hubacek, Nicholas Klemek, Tony Larson, Betsy Lohrer Hall, Alexis Mackenzie, Issac McKay Randozzi, Nan, Ert O'Hara, Merry-Beth Noble, Claire Reay, Lisa Romero, Michael Row, Allyson Shaw, Valerie Scott, Robert Tower, Rebecca Trawick, and Porous Walker, Hague Williams

If you want to read the full press release and statement, check out the site, but here's the scoop for our local readers. This show is Edith's commentary and critique on the capitalist fantasies of the Street Art scene. By appropriating their methods of exhibition and grossly exaggerating them Edith digs at the conflict between art and commerce that fuels that scene.

So in other words, come on down and have a drink with us, using your new commemorative artist made (via mail order mass production) shot glass. It's a solid show, come on down.
