Grand Opening

WE'RE OPEN FOR REAL AND THERE'S SNACKS!

Come to Studio 23 on Saturday, March 29th from 6-11pm to celebrate our grand opening in concurrence with the Southern Graphics Council CommandP Conference. There will be food and drinks, and party time. We've installed our first show in the gallery space, showcasing LOL the CommandP BFF 4EVA Portfolio. Here's a little bit about the portfolio:
On the occasion of SGC CommandP 2008, Studio 23 has gathered a group of VCU faculty, graduate students and alumni to create LOL the CommandP BFF 4EVA Portfolio. Referring to the condensed language of abbreviations, symbols, and standardized phrases perpetuated by ever expanding digital communication, LOL addresses the function of print in the midst of this newfound domination of the screen (i.e. computers, cell phones and television). Digital technology is often portrayed as growing at the expense of traditional printmaking, but many young artists prove the two can inform each other. The artists selected represent the recent resurgence of print media in VCU's PAPR department.

See you Saturday night!
