Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln love to party. Who can forget the time they got Martha Washington stoned off her ass, captured that lilly-livered Redcoat and made him do keg stands for a fortnight? In honor of these presidential party animals, we are showcasing some of Raleigh’s best and brightest for a show that will make your Jacksons and Lincolns tickled green.

This is a one night event that will feature Raleigh’s best giving back to the community that has given to them through such a rough economic period.

EVERY PIECE WILL BE ONLY $25!

First come, first serve. Snag your lovely something nice for Valentines day. Enjoy the company.

2009 Fall Open House photos!

admin — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 17:22:34 +0000

The dysfunctionally functional Bonded Llama family are opening the doors to their humble abode to showcase our artwork as well as our workspaces. Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breath free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-lost to me. We lift our lamp beside the Bonded Llama door!

Not that I am drawing clear parallels between the revolutionary American icon The Statue of Liberty but our torch does burn bright and we are kind of floating out in an island oasis of warehouses and freight train layups. We are also a motley crew of dedicated artists with an array of talents guaranteed to juxtapose comfortably and could quite possibly make your nipples hard….. or not. No pressure.

So stop by and see us. We’d love to have you.

Matt Scofield and Sean Kernick exhibiting in “ALPHABET SOUP”

admin — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 06:47:46 +0000

26 Artists were invited to design and develop a letter that will be part of a Raleigh Artist alphabet. Matt and Sean will be responsible to the R and A respectively. The Alphabet Soup collection will be displayed in the Orchestra while in the large gallery they will be showing a juried show called “Letters”.

The LoDi Project would like to see how artists are inspired by typography in the January 2010 exhibition titled “Letters”: The theme of typography is addressed in multiple ways by
using a variety of media and techniques, such as video, photography, graphic design, graffiti,
calligraphy, and painting.
It looks to be a fun show showcasing a collection of talent both local and national.
