Painted Prosthetic Project Raises Funds for Homeless, Wounded Veterans

More than 20 artists participate in the Painted Prosthetic Project, which raises money to assist homeless and wounded veterans. A gallery show, kicking off on Jan. 6, displays the works–created on prosthetic legs– before they’re auctioned off online at the end of the month. The gallery hosting the show is Arch Enemy Arts, which is based in Philadelphia. After the end of the run there, the pieces are shipped to Orlando to be auctioned off.

All of the funds raised go to a charity called Warriors Pathfinder, which will also collect photos of the painted pieces for an upcoming book. The idea for the project from artist Jon Palestini, who teamed up with friend and veteran James Bisset, founder of the charity group. The non-profit was started in 2012.

Preview: “Imaginary Menagerie: The Arch Enemy Arts Guide to Cryptozoology Vol. 1”

For their third anniversary, Arch Enemy Arts in Philadelphia decided to celebrate with three simultaneous exhibitions: a group show, a customization show, and a print show. The centerpiece of this trifecta is "Imaginary Menagerie: The Arch Enemy Arts Guide to Cryptozoology Vol. 1." As the long-winded title suggests, Arch Enemy Arts invited a large group of artists to create works based on their chosen mythical beasts. For many of the artists in the show — like Erika Sanada (HF Vol. 31), Naoto Hattori (HF Vol. 35), and Caitlin Hackett (HF Vol. 17) — this theme is already their specialty. "Imaginary Menagerie" opens on April 3, as well as the other two shows, "Stacked" and "Full Bleed."

Jasmime Worth’s “Dark Night of the Soul” and Chet Zar’s “The Demon Show”

Tomorrow night, Chet Zar’s “The Demon Show” and Jasmine Worth’s “Dark Night of the Soul” side by side solo shows are opening at Last Rites Gallery in NYC. Both shows will be on view May 23rd through July 3rd, 2015. In "Dark Night of the Soul", Worth explores the act of transformation through suffering. Inspired by both the occult and female experience, the artist utilizes meticulous layering techniques to craft scenes from fairytales gone awry, swirling seamlessly between the sweet and the morbid. With “The Demon Show,” Zar’s subject matter is surreal and darkly humorous yet genuine in its existence, often revealing humankind at its barest form.
