Love is a Losing Game

National Black Fine Art Show

Wow what an event!  This was our first fine art show and it was a bit overwhelming there were so many great galleries, including our favorites: Parish Gallery (Washington, DC), Stella Jones Gallery (New Orleans), and International Visions (Washington, DC).  We also discovered Intemporal (Paris, France), G.R. N’ Namdi Gallery (Chicago, NYC & Detroit), and Bill Hodges Gallery (NYC) that have some of our favorite masters and contemporary artists.

Now that we have the fine art fair bug we are looking forward to an eventful year as attendees!  This event provided great energy and inspired us to continue to search for talented, emerging artists and to continue to create scholarship on the preeminent masters that contribute to a 3^rd Root Aesthetic!  – CF
