FRIENDS Art Show! (F-R-I-E-(N)-D-S)….

June 8th, 2009 by SugarBricks

In the past here on Circus Gold, we’ve talked about the importance of Friendship (Friends, buncha bastards) and how beneficial it can be to one’s on well being.

Well, Tim Kerr, concurs. In fact, he orchestrated an Art Show around this belief, and even named it….

The Show included Friend Artists Rich Jacobs, Bill Daniel, Michael Sieben, Cynthia Connolly, and Kerr himself. The show took place at Domy Books, in East Austin. Yeah, that’s right, ‘took place’, so there is no way in hell you can see it now, except for here, on Circus Gold, and various other web outposts whom we will not mention.

“This exhibition was conceptualized by Tim Kerr, one of the five exhibiting artists. Simply put, we have been friends for years and our friendship was struck by the admiration of the other by the artwork they had done and the vision we each have.”

The Show was packed with Strangers, despite its title…

Long time fan of Kerr’s colorful and quick portraits of amazing American Heroes, my favorite subject of his art still remains Jim Thorpe.

(More about Thorpe:)

Bill Daniel and Briar Bonifacio, talked about Trains while obstructing Cynthia Connolly’s Photos. Cynthia also has a baller book out right now called, Banned in DC.

Bill Daniel, of course, is the acclaimed creator of hobo graffiti film, Who is Bozo Texino? And the accompanying book, Mostly True, which features artwork by Circus Gold’s buddies Broke & El Conejo Blanco.
