Everyone can be an art collector, spread the love!
Show opens October 13th, runs through November 8th.
Party with DJ Adams & BONSCOTT spinning, October 18th 6-9pm
Breaking all the rules of showing and selling art, Everybody Get Up (EGU) has created a powerful street art collective that simply states: Art should be affordable for all, no exceptions, no regrets! All artwork is priced between, $1.00 - $50.00. (Cash or Check only)
What do you have in your pocket? $2.00? $15.00? Whatever the amount, all you have to do is pick out a piece of art amongst hundreds that you like. Just rip it off the wall and go to the casher. Nope you don’t have to wait until the end of the exhibit to pick-up your work, and yes, you are doing a good thing supporting these artists.
So join us for a free party, with DJ’s Justin Adams “Aka DJ Adams” & Scott Taylor “Aka BONSCOTT” of WaxONWaxOff productions who will be spinning funk, hip hop, and jungle during the event. Oh ya, we will be serving Pabst Blue Ribbon by donation, it’s all good.
Who are EGU?

“I do not consider myself a GRAFFITI artist. I'm so much more than that. I mean, yeah I've done some graffiti, but so what? A lot of people do that. I also do not make BLACK ART. Yes, it is true I am a big assed 210 pound Negro but I do not make Black Art” - Scott J. Taylor
Music is Taylor’s primary inspiration for most of his work. He has been drawing since he can remember. His father, also a graphic artist, taught him a lot. Taylor has always had an interest in cartoons, sex, and comic book illustration. He incorporates these subjects sparingly throughout his pieces. He has always been an avid TV casualty and comic book junkie, and it shows in his work. More recently Taylor has been experimenting with multi-layer stencils over bold mixed media backgrounds and with intense compositional framing.
Art has helped him explore things in this world once never thought possible. Currently living and attending school in San Francisco, the Bay Area has been a blessing and a wonderful source of inspiration for his work.
