Old Crow Tattoo and Gallery presents Stand Tall Pt.II: No Ceilings!

New Heights in Urban Contemporary Art

2 OPENING RECEPTIONS, 2 VENUES, 2 DAYS

Alot’s happened since the last “Stand Tall” and as we move closer to 2012. We wanted to do it again, one last time….

Sooo here it is on March 4th and 5th, bigger and better with 60 of our favorite artists, covering a wide range of mediums and disciplines.

“Stand Tall” and in essence, is a conceptual installation show, where each artist has a 3ft x 9ft of wall space to exhibit whatever however they see fit. This show is meant to give each artist full liberty to create within a confined area. The concept allows for a visceral gallery presentation and also individual grace and focus from artist to artist.

Stand Tall Pt.II promises all the visual beauty of last years show but this time we’ll be working with Photographer’s, Skate Artists, Street Artists of all types, Visionary artists and of course Tattooists as well as accomplished fine artists to create a more dynamic event for everyone involved. We really cant say enough about the group of artists participating in this show. If you not familiar with any of they’re work follow the links and get familiar.

JAPANTHER will be headlining the event and performing on Friday night @ Addis Habana. This will be a very special performance as they are also exhibiting in the show. This will be a rare time to see the artwork of JAPANTHER along with the music.

Mortar and Pestle will be playing @ Old Crow Tattoo and Gallery on Friday along with other surprise guests

Invasive species feat. Daniel Yasmin and Anchant Futour w/ Sunru will be playing Saturday evening !!!!

Hosted by Philip Milic in the house he created.

Taco Bell Reveals Secret Recipe!

A lawsuit was filed against Taco Bell on January 19th alleging the ground beef Taco Bell uses doesn’t contain enough beef to even be called beef. To which Taco Bell replied, “ughh…duh .” In actuality, Taco Bell is vehemently denying the suit levied against them. So much so they are taking out a full page ad in nine papers including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Los Angeles Times. If that does not put the Wall Street Journal’s readership at ease, Taco Bell President, Greg Creed, released a video revealing Taco Bell’s top secret recipe.
