Art Attack
November 16th, 7PM - Midnight
South Broadway Athletic Club, 2301 South 7th Street, St. Louis, Missouri
Press Release:
KDHX Community Media and South City Open Studio and Gallery for Children (SCOSAG) present Art Attack! on Friday, November 16 at the South Broadway Athletic Club from 7:00 p.m. to midnight. Art Attack! is Saint Louis’ first and only rock ‘n’ roll art destructo-auction. Outrageous and chaotic, this competitive art event will benefit both KDHX Community Media and SCOSAG. The event features original works from 32 local artists, including local celebrities. Completed works may be viewed at the KDHX TV studio during regular business hours from November 1 until the day of the event. Works may also be viewed online.
Art Attack! is a single elimination tournament consisting of five rounds in which pairs of paintings will compete head-to-head. Audience response to each painting will be measured by an Applause-O-Meter, with the piece receiving the most applause progressing to the next round.
Losing works of art then face a perilous future in front of the Wheel of Misfortune. This large wheel includes six diabolical and imaginative ways of destroying the losing piece. If the Wheel lands on “Certain Death,” it will be destroyed immediately. If not, the audience will then have a chance to save the piece by bidding on it for a minimum of $50 in the first round, $75 in the second, and so on. If the minimum is not reached, the piece will meet its demise without delay.
The excitement will continue throughout five nerve-rattling rounds until the final winner is announced. The creator of the winning piece will win $1,000 cash, as well as the comfort of knowing that their art will live on.
Art Attack! will also feature the gritty blues of Casey Reid and bluegrass-punk of The Monads in between rounds.
Tickets are $10 and will be available at the door at 7:00 p.m. or for advance purchase at the South Broadway Athletic Club.
The South Broadway Athletic Club is located at 2301 South 7th Street in St. Louis, Missouri.
