http://sonicgenerationart.com/ So apparently there's an art show in Philadelphia, PA called the "Sonic Generation Art Show" that's coming along around December 2 and will last throughout then to the end of December. To quote the website itself.. Tons of really neat pieces of artwork being shown (such as this one shown above); anyone near Philly gonna go?
I'm a 30 minute train ride away from Philly, and from the station it's just a 20 minute walk. I actually know exactly where this place is, and I've passed it a few times. Hells yeah, I'm going to this.
It really irked me how professional illustrators are always churning out stylish and ironic Mario fan art, like he's the only guy who deserves it. We're back on track. Wasn't expecting Kustom Kulture Sonic!
Wow... holy crap. I actually kind of want to fly out to Philly for the weekend. I have a couple of free roundtrip flights on my credit card for Southwest. If they fly to Philly, I'm pretty sure I need to do this. EDIT: Yep, they do. I so have to do this. If there's any local Retro'ers, please PM me! I'd love to figure out tips on how to get a good hotel room that's close to the show.
I work an hour from Philly and live 2 hours from Philly, if I can find someone willing to ride down with me I might check it out.
I will definitely try and go to this sometime next month. About time some real artists showed their love for Sonic like they always do for Mario.
I don't think a ride to philly will be out of the question while Im in NY getting shit done. I'll see if I can make it!
This is really neat. Loving all these events that have been happening this year, but this is possibly the coolest.
they made a similar art show in Spain earlier this year, in June, to celebrate 20th anniversary. you can see the photos of the show in this website http://www.vandal.net/noticia/57607/exposicion-visiones-de-sonic-en-su-20-aniversario/ I thin the philladelphia one is quite better. In the spanish one there were too much abstract art pieces who I don't think have much to do with Sonic, at all.

Gotta love handicapped artists. Sometimes you got all that vision bottled up inside someone who can't express it normally. And these people express it anyway.
