Be Contemporary (Prelude to Event #6)

GOArts is short for Georgia Open Arts Month which takes place each October.
It's a collective campaign to raise awareness about arts in our area.

Last October, I took up a challenge to see 31 shows in 31 days and blog about it... in the end, I saw 41.
Sure, it was a bit tiring but it was also an amazing opportunity.

The column on the left is a linked schedule of everything I saw.
For a more logical read of this blog o'adventures, scroll down to the first entry and start reading there.

I'm not a reviewer, nor am I an art critic.
I aim to raise public awareness about the great tapestry of arts & culture in our area and inspire you to get out there and enjoy it.

Be Contemporary (Prelude to Event #6)

Well, I hope my art history professors will be happy to know that I feel compelled to do a bit of comparison/contrast while the work of Da Vinci, Donatello, Rustici and their contemporaries of the late 1400's are fresh in my mind. Thus, I'm going to fastforward half a millennium and head over to the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center today and look for the connections. C'mon over and let's talk art.
