Art Muscle

This was an interesting find last Friday on the ArtWalk: an Art Truck. Muscles and Art two things, that at least in my mind, aren't necessarily drawn together are here, I guess. What we have here is a box truck, open in the back, with art hanging on the walls. Looks to be some sort of mobile art gallery, although at all the First Friday celebrations, it has always been parked in the street. If you are  not looking at this side with the display, it just gives you the look of a moving van, complete with the long, gradually metal walkway up the back. There wasn't a lot of movement into the truck to view the art. Most of the potential customers of art were scurrying by on the sidewalk. 
Caught in the blur.

  1. I'm not sure you will win any photo awards with this one!

  2. I've seen these photo trucks elsewhere and it makes sense to me; a mobile gallery bring art to all people.

  3. Caught in the blur--love that phrase. That's what life is, some days.

  4. Huh. That's a new one . . .have an image of people entering the truck, the doors being shut, and them being carted off like cattle. Well.

  5. That sounds like a super idea for displaying art.

  6. It's &^$@#*! hard to sell art, especially in these times. I get stuff in group shows 2 or 3 times a year. Sold just one piece. People got no taste or no money, or both.
