Kick Ass Pictures has announced plans to host the Kick Ass Art Show #3 on April 22.
Attendees will experience “high art in a low art setting” at the show that will go from 9 p.m. until at least 2 a.m.
The varying styles of art will be displayed in a working porn warehouse, filled with tens of thousands of adult DVDs. Lingerie clad porn stars will be serving drinks from a full bar as well as putting on a “special performance” at midnight. DJ Flowers will spin. A $5 donation is requested at the door.
Show #3 features the works of four unsigned, up-and-coming young artists: Kasia Gabrianczyk, Michael Hayden, Marleigh Atherton and Puss. Kick Ass will not be taking any commissions from purchases – the artists keep 100 percent of every sale. The company says it’s “low art supporting high art.”
Over 600 people attended the last show in February. By the end of the evening over 25 different pieces of art sold for nearly $5,000, making the show an unprecedented success. Show #3 is aiming to raise the bar.
Kick Ass President Mark Kulkis is a contributing member to both MOCA and LACMA and is dedicated to helping unique artistic talents gain the recognition and funds to continue their visions.
