Spring/Summer seems to be THE seasons for art in Atlanta.   I’m sure as more of you all start checking the comeupkids.com calendar you’ll notice a slew of art shows/live art/art installments in the upcoming months.  If you are in the Atlanta area and you have a show coming up, share the information on the event with me via e-mail (lola@comeupkids.com).

Let me introduce you to ‘Sons of the South‘.  Sons of the South is an art collective of diverse artists working and living in the South.  This year Sons of the South will feature 12 artists and run at two locations; Foundation One Gallery in Decatur and Rabbit Hole Gallery in Atlanta.

Artists’ works will explore a variety of themes in various mediums that have emerged from Atlanta’s small and isolated subcultures such as folk art, street art, punk and hip-hop cultures and graffiti.

A few of this year’s artists are: Dosa Kim, Steven Dixey, Michi, Dan May, Sam Parker and BORN.

The first opening reception will be held at Foundation One Gallery on Saturday, March 8, 2008 from 7-11 PM. The exhibit will run until April 18th.  Rabbit Hole Gallery’s opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 14, 2008 from 7-11 PM.

For more information on Sons of the South please contact Ivan (ivan@foundationonegallery.com/ 404-806-0925) or Bethany (info@rabbitholegallery.com/404-550-6136).

Hope to see you all there!
