Artists: 2009 Telephone Factory Art Show Atlanta

I'm participating in Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps on the Porch. Thanks to Susan! This used to be a telephone factory and it was built to last. Now it's an art, design, and coolness factory. Once a year we get a look inside. Design fans, you'll want to see the a few pictures of a French style collection in the postscript.

Fun art...

I did the Telephone Factory Art Show on Sunday. (I did the Fulton Cotton and Bag Mill tour on Saturday). Mark your calendar for next year: First weekend in December, great loft buildings, great lofts, great art, great people, great time.

  6. I started to tell you my favorites, but that seems silly when I rename over half of the artists you just mentioned! So I''l keep it at this-I found Jennifer Henley's work extremely interesting as well as attractive. I liked her merge of found object and paint. I also felt moved by the large blue paintings by Mathew Mayes. So much texture and impact. Oh and of course I am a sucker for Poindexter's work, architecture photographed in such away that it becomes graphic. What else can I say! I also love that you captured the parts of Caryn's place that I left out-those images are so strong with the bold gratifies and next to to the fragile teacups and crystal. Caryn's pretty awesome, huh!
