Urban Art Warfare recently launched their blog. The tagline of the blog proclaims Bringing the forefront of all urban media and street art to the masses
. Indeed they do. The blog has been up for less than a month and they’ve already written 6 posts on upcoming art shows which you can see in the category Art Shows and Openings. Not only are there posts about the local art scene there are posts about the street art from all over the country like The Swap Box Project.
I’m very excited about this new blog from Urban Art Warfare. Why? Levi, the author of author and creator or Urban Art Warfare, is very connected in the local art scene. And we’re not talking about paintings-of-pastoral-scenes-at-a-gallery-in-san-marco art. We’re talking new, hip, cutting-edge art from the hottest artists in the city. Don’t get me wrong, I can appreciate this as much as the next person, but I would much rather view and purchase art like this.
Hopefully I will be more aware of cool art events happening in the city. For example, take the post ELEMENTS Artshow Opening Reception. I would have loved to be at this show, but I had no idea it was going on until I heard about it from a friend. I didn’t even know Jane Gray Gallery in Riverside had opened. But thats partly because I am a home-body geek.
Lucky for me I found the UAW blog so I won’t miss the upcoming TSI Skate Deck show or the Burrito Gallery Group Show. So if you are down with art you should be down with the new Urban Art Warfare blog.
