A modern vintage marketplace April 14, 2012. Salvage. Featuring clothing, decor, home goods, furniture, books, collections and more. Sounds worth checking out too me.
"In Atlanta,
everyone drives. The bartender called us
“hardcore” when we said we’d walked there.
She said, “No one in Atlanta walks anywhere."
This Friday, 10 readers, including me, will be reading about time travel (or maybe something else equally as interesting).
Beep Beep Gallery is currently exhibiting time travel inspired art by Mike Germon, Bootstrap Paradox.

Come out for what is sure to be an awesome event!
This is pretty sweet. The Atlanta BeltLine released a book with photos about art and performances that took place in 2011. Good to see, if you didn’t get to see all of the projects.
Here’s a link to the PDF. / HT www.artsatl.com
Some photos I took along part of the Beltline a few weeks ago.

Scenes from All 4 One: Old Fourth Ward Art Stroll last weekend, Sat. March 10, 2012. Saw some amazing stuff. This is only some of it.
Four galleries in one night. They say they will do another stroll in a few months. I hope they will.
The sculptures by artist Jac Coffey were particularly amazing, while I love work of Peter Ferrari (@PLFpaint).
The Fear and Loathing also exhibit had many impressive pieces.
Just read a wonderful essay by Atlanta writer, Jamie Iredell.
What You Can Learn From LSD published by Thought Catalogue.
It was early spring, buds of green leaves sprouting from trees that had been nothing but bark for three months. Gray snow had not yet melted in the shadows of Angel Alley where I lived in my apartment that was built into the basement of a large house, the foundation of which was set into a hill, so that I literally lived halfway underground, like something out of a fairytale.
Worth a read, especially if you’re a writer.
A migrating theatrical experience at The Goat Farm that explores the story of Little red Riding Hood in a “more blushed and grim” way. Sounds intriguing to me.

Sounds worth checking out to me: Closing reception of Another Green World at Beep Beep Gallery February 23, 2012 from 7-10pm.
At 9pm, the entire album will be played live between three bands:
The bands have split up the album into equal parts and will then play the record in order, switching out between tracks in a round robin-style performance.

I haven’t seen this exhibit yet, but some feedback/criticism suggests that the themed show doesn’t work, that the quality varies and seems lazy at times. I think it would still be interesting to see how the different artists interacted with the songs, to see what new things came from the experiment.
The show presents works presented alongside a song track from Brian Eno’s album, Another Green World. Sharing ear-buds does seem a little yuck-ish, perhaps they should have set it up where you could plug in your own or something.
Here’s a reviews from Burnaway.
