"sinisterly funny" -ARTFORUM

ARCHIE SCOTT GOBBER PALIN'
gouache on chipboard, 17 x 20 inches framed (original artwork)

New limited edition print available at www.getpalin.com + t-shirts and coffee mugs. BUY NOW!

Kansas City based artist ARCHIE SCOTT GOBBER’s mixed-media constructions combine the craft and aesthetics of sign painting with cleverly deconstructed words and phrases, manipulating both surfaces and meaning in an often biting and humorous manner.

PALIN’ (the original work of art) was recently exhibited at the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art. Gobber’s work is included in numerous private and museum collections including the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas City, Missouri.

Renegade Bus' Lucia Simek on "The Obama Art Fund"

Renegade Bus's own Lucia Simek lays out some details and discusses the first-time homeowner’s tax incentive "The Obama Art Fund" in a new entry on Dallas' always fascinating and clever culture blog www.renegadebusdallas.com.

"...we landed a house just in the nick of time in order to qualify for : $8000, give or take, come refund time. While most assuredly the proper, home owning, adult thing to do with the money would be to put the money back into the house somehow – pay down the note a little, invest in some upgrades – we have another idea that’s much more fun, and that, tangentially, does some good too." -Lucia Simek, Renegade Bus
