I don’t know the history of this particular dumpster. I know it’s been here at least 2 years, but likely longer.

On the dancefloor with DJ SKi Daddy from Two T’s

The Derelickt Diva herself, Jojo

This past Sunday I traveled to Hargett Street, to check out the Derelikt Diva art show. It was part art show, part spoken word, and hip hop event with DJ Ski Daddy. The event was held in Club Kirocos, which is above Two T’s.

The event was a lot of fun, and had a great vibe. Jojo (the derelikt diva) put the event on herself, which is even more impressive. To find out more about her artwork, visit her myspace page.

Flanders Art Gallery was opened with the past First Friday (November 2) and according to their website,

This new exhibit space differs from Flanders Art Gallery, located at 18 Seaboard; on the whole the work may be edgier, more contemporary and experimental with drawings, photography, and other works on paper in a range of styles by innovative emerging artists.

Opening the gallery for the month of November is “Works by Diane Feissel and Sharon Lee Hart.” … Flanders 311 is open Tuesdays through Saturday, 10am-6pm and on First Friday from 10am-9pm. For more information, contact Kelly Flanders McChesney at 919-834-5044 or www.flandersartgallery.com.

The piece seen in the window is Tabula Rasa 2, and is a 30″ x 40″ oil on canvas. You can get a better view on the item’s page at the Flander’s Art Gallery website.
