Joshua von Nonn
"KeroWACKED: Homage to Jack"
 
Watching Josh paint, you’re immediately struck by how quickly the look of a piece can change, how seemingly unafraid he is to paint over forms that only took shape days or hours ago. Not satisfied with a result that seems merely good, or that other people like, Josh pushes on, risking the good and the likable, until the dialectic of paint-then-paint-over reaches a crisis point where the whole thing seems palpably wrong, unrealized. That moment ups the stakes and sets the stage for a confrontation where what happens next finally matters enough – where Josh can now find out whether this piece will be worth anything to him. The impasse could grind on long enough to divert his attention to other works, but when the built up static electricity rumbles to a spark and there’s enough energy to overcome the standoff, a real cathexis transpires and the painting is invested with all the feeling and meanings latent in that struggle and its resolution. The painting may still be about other things as well, and it may carry over many of the elements that were there before, but it now conducts a new charge – courage.
Andrew Ackerman
"KeroWACKED: Homage to Jack"

"Lovers embrace in outer space. Two sensual beings are intertwined in pure bliss. These green entities defy gravity as their bodies become part of a puzzle of sensuous shape and design. Rarely are we spectators to an other-worldly romance such as this."

Andrew Ackerman is a Brooklyn born abstract painter. Ackerman's work is a fusion of graffiti art, Pop art, abstract expressionism and calligraphy. His mysterious but playful painting style has been featured on the pages Wemerge Magazine and his exhibitions include MultiVersal: Art Basel 2011. 
Valyn Calhoun
"KeroWACKED: Homage to Jack"

Valyn Calhoun is an emerging artist/photographer based in South Florida, graduated from AIU with a BFA in Visual Communications.

 "I am fascinated by art and photography is my lifeblood. I would do anything for my craft. I currently own my own photography company, ValynRuinedMyLife.com and focus on fashion, nightlife, portraits and commissions."

"Share the Love”

Paul Slater, aka “PAULO” parallels his passion for clean, green living with a true love for modern art and architecture. He aspires to cross-promote the beauty of sustainable transportation and volunteering via modern art culture. A majority of his life was spent working alongside artisans, craftsman, pioneers, and traditionalists. As a volunteer he inspires and uplifts both urbanand rural communities.
“These collaborative volunteer projects will provide opportunities for generations to come…they simply have to.” - Paul Slater
Finding time to cut loose the creative strings, “PAULO-brushed metal illustrations” employ a painting style which represents urban life in the natural world. A brushed metal holographic polish and burn melds the dichotomy of industrial alloy with delicate impressions of nature. PAULO prepares for us a tangible mouthwatering lifestyle in which we may choose to live and enjoy.
