Over a week into our 6 week motorhome trip and the Swope family is still intact with all members present! Artprize is almost a week old now and the top 10 will be announced the morning of Thursday Sept. 30. Over 1700 artists have work in 3 square miles of downtown Grand Rapids. Every kind of work is represented: fine art, amazing contemporary art, vote getting gimmick art and kitsch that Clement Greenberg could not even imagine! Artprize is a wonderful spectacle! My work is installed at Free Spirit Worship Center, it is cool to witness a product that was pure concept less than a year ago materialize and become real! Check out a video of the work on you tube, search for Fugaciously.
