After working non-stop for the past few months, we would like to invite you to come join us for our New Year’s Party (at least in Taxland)….it will be your last chance to pick up a print from the current show for just $40!  Or our fantastic T-shirts with an original Andy Singer cartoon on it.  Or just come have a glass of wine and celebrate the end of tax season and the beginning of spring!  If you’re not ready for bed at 9 pm, you should join us in going to the Triple Rock Social Club for Black Blondie‘s CD Release show.  Get your tickets in advance as it is sponsored by the Current and will likely sell out!

See you all soon!!!!!

In the first of an annual series of juried exhibits, Art Form 1040, we asked artists to ponder and submit work under the theme of “U.S. Idealism Returns.”  Our goal was to take these variegated responses and orchestrate a cohesive show in which the original works could be displayed, and 10-Print Limited Edition Series of the top 10 selections could be made and sold for $40 each (thus 10-40).  Please email us at info@foxtaxservice.com to reserve/purchase a print!

U.S. IDEALISM RETURNS

The responses to our theme-as can be expected in an unprecedented time of political transition, economic crisis, religious conflict, and global climate change-span the emotional spectrum from the hopeful to the hapless.  Themes range from the literal to the ironic to the absurd.  From the dream-like portraiture of Rudy Fig to the dizzying details of New York-based David Lynn’s cityscape-under-siege to Anne George’s subtle photograph “Relativity”, the styles and themes provide a cross-section of perspectives as broad as the political divide between Fox News and The Daily Show.

U.S. Idealism Returns?  The wide range of entries led us to examine what we meant in posing the theme itself.  Everyone seemed to have such a different response.  In the end, we realized that the variety of voice was the purpose of the show: a return to idealism as duplicity, rather than singular (blind) ideal, where differences of perspective are discussed, not dismissed, where values and valuations are made with non-zero sum results, and where mutual benefit and acceptance outweighs personal protectionism and greed.  Idealism indeed!  We can only hope that life can again imitate art!
