We searched. They applied. We checked each
of their 3 references to see if they played nice.
Seven Gallery Committee Members juried
for a whole day. One artist smoked and we thought no, that might be bad for the
others, he can’t go out to smoke.
Sometimes the answer came down to “the other artists would have more fun
creating with this artist.”
It was very painful to choose. But we did. They are:
Ron Hundt from Kettering, Ohio-He’s the artist with the blue
beard-Papa Smurf-He presented us with a box.
It held “American Gothic
Reimagined as Stick Figues”
Jennifer Bachelder from Westerville, Ohio-Her reference
said “Trash+Art+meeting and working with
new artists=Jen” She holds trash parties for friends to create art.
Pierre Nagley from
Yellow Springs, Ohio-He sent 6 pictures all totally different mediums- one was
an 7 foot tall Bottle Cap Buddha
With Videographer Travis
Hawkes from Glen Ellyn, Illinois-he shoots and edits videos for a living-we
went to his web site, watched his videos-bingo, he’s in
On November 9th
they will meet each other for the first time and see the gallery but not what
is in the boxes. We will go over rules. That evening they get pre interviews with Travis,
the videographer .

next morning they will be locked in.
