Cool Hunting
Celebrating a decade of art collective Mixed Greens' efforts in promoting struggling artists, their Tenth Anniversary Exhibition, X, brings together 84 members and alumni for a sensory overload experience.
The show draws on a roster of talent (over 100 different artists to date) that speaks to the organization's careful selection process, based on a novel use of materials or intriguing perspective on subjects. Currently championing 22 lucky artists, it's a program insuring that the gallery maintains an eccentric and eclectic vibe.
Art in the exhibit runs the gamut too, including psychedelic acrylic portraits from Zane Lewis (at right), to photographs of floating goldfish from Dirk Westphal (bottom left) to oversized wooden installations from Lee Stoetzel (bottom right).
