JENNIFER JOHNSON: ARTIFAKT TO CONSUME THE ROBERT DANIEL GALLERY >>>
Seattle-based arts group and clothing design cooperative Artifakt was born two and a half years ago. Co-founder Jake Wagoner found a kindred spirit in Matt Eklund, musician, artist and entertainment promoter, recently naming him Artifakt’s Tacoma creative director.
“We throw art parties,†says Eklund with a smile in his voice.
Tonight marks Artifakt’s inaugural event at The Robert Daniel Gallery.
“We’re showing artists that haven’t shown a whole lot in Tacoma, including Blaine Fontana from Oregon,†Eklund elaborates.
This multi-genre spanning art party features nine unique artists with styles that exhibit elements of the fantastical â€" cartoon dragon, snowy robot, howler monkey, purple hand-signs, deep-sea diver, antler-wearing man â€" and a well-captured animated sense of movement.
Aural aspects will be headed up by Seattle’s DJ Eva, Tacoma’s own DJ Spice and Flat Black.
[The Robert Daniel Gallery, Artifakt Multi Genre Art Party with Eva, Dizzy Dave, DJ Hanibal, Flat Black, Spice, Friday, May 29, 8 p.m., $5, $7 after 11 p.m., 2501 Fawcett Ave., Tacoma, 253.297.3869]
