#28grams at Fort Works Art

#28Grams is a one-of-a-kind exhibition that connects the public to some of the most highly representational, figurative, and abstract artists from across the globe who are using modern platforms in striking and innovative ways. Unparalleled in its curatorial design,#28Grams features a diverse range of 28 museum and gallery represented artists from around the world who have broken through the walls of traditional “art” spaces by garnering international online fame through mixing their fine art process with the low-fi medium of Instagram. Aimed at showcasing the individuals behind the up-and-coming digital movement, #28Grams is the brainchild of Fort Works Art founder Lauren Childs who hopes to showcase the method in which “online social networking is breaking down the geographical barriers of artistic genres.” This exhibition opens Tuesday, March 23 and runs through May 20. A reception will take place on Saturday, March 25 from 12 - 9:00pm. The event will be underscored by a surprise special DJ spinning some of today’s hottest music.
