HYLAND’S BLOCK BUILDING… ANDENKEN 2.0

Hyland Mather, the contemporary artworld genius behind Andenken Gallery recently obtained a new space called the Block building. Due to circumstances somewhat unknown to us Andenken will be moving (along with Hyland) and Andenken’s new home will be inside the wall of the Block Building. Hyland solicited a number of our homies to paint relatively ginormous murals inside the communal portion (there’s all sorts of shit going on in here) of the building. We had a chance to visit prior to Shoe Shine and snap some pics. Have a look.

NEW JOHN FELLOWS MURAL!

Our bro John Fellows just finished a super rad 12′ x12′ mural at Hyland Mather’s (founder of Andenken Gallery) new warehouse space in Denver on 30th and Larimer. Way to handle that shit John! Shitty Kitten, Jenna Wilson and Amanda Marie, all threw down their own 12′x12’s next to Mr. Fellows. We hope to have pics next week. Stay tuned cuz the Denver art scene is comin’ up - BIG TIME.

WHITE SPACE 2 AT DWR

Saturday was a big art day. We kicked it off with White Space 2 in partnership with BMoCA and Design Within Reach (find out more). A live painting art event at DWR. Our boy Markham “Shitty Kitten” Maes was ready to paint up a storm and did just that. The other artist participants included Pattie Lee Becker, Christopher Cox, Paul Kraus, Amanda Marie and Jenna Wilson. The art line up coupled with beats and vibes from DJ Segue made for a super fresh environment.

We gotta hand it to all the artists involved that put their shit on the line for everyone to see. Big Ups to our bro Chris Cox and Sherbert’s Jenna Wilson who to our knowledge don’t really paint (at least not traditionally) all that much - way to step up and crush it.

Ryan Batch of White Spacez and DWR handled shit to say the least. Nice Ryan. On two occassions throughout the night Ryan ceased the arty chaos, got everyone to shut the fuck up, and laid down the law… it went something like this - OK people, you all dig on this live art stuff, so SUPPORT IT. Make a donation at the door, buy some cocktails, buy some art for god sake - at least bid on it and help drive up the price, do something to support this scene. Ryan also made a point of repeatedly introducing the artists by name to really drive home their socio-cultural significance and get ‘em some name recognition.

Putting all bias aside (which is tough) we, well I, gotta make one last note: SHITTY KITTEN is nasty good and owned the room. Atta boy Markham!

    “WE SUFFER PRIMARILY … FROM OUR ILLUSIONS. WE ARE HAUNTED, NOT BY REALITY, BUT BY THOSE IMAGES WE HAVE PUT IN PLACE OF REALITY. AMERICA WENT TO WAR NEARLY FIVE YEARS AGO AFTER AN ORCHESTRATED CAMPAIGN OF FALSE STATEMENTS BY THE NATION’S TOP OFFICIALS, A WAR BEGUN UNDER THE ILLUSION OF AN IMMINENT NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT. WE ARE HAUNTED BY A WAR BEGUN, IN OTHER WORDS, UNDER FALSE PRETENSES.” - DANIEL BOORSTIN, THE IMAGE (1961)
