The Gallery at Fox Tax is proud to announce a new exhibit entitled Art Form 1040:Mission Accomplished!. For this Art-A-Whirl exhibit, Mark and Alyssa Fox asked artists to create two works each that expressed their perspective on the Oughts as a decade. The result is a variety of mediums and imagery with a strong underlying tongue-in-cheek tone not-so-subtly summarized by the banner Bush-ism that is the subtitle of the show. As the 3rd annual exhibit of commissioned works in the Art Form 1040 series at Fox Tax, not only is original work for sale, but 10 signed and numbered prints of each work will be available for $40 each (thus the blithe 10 40 take on tax and art). Show will be on exhibit through end of June.

Artists included in this show are: Nicholas Golfis, John Diebel, Colin Kopp, Melissa Loop, Aniela Sobieski, and David Hansen. The work varies in medium from painting to collage to photography to screenprinting, but this disparate collection of mediums all somehow capture a timely post-post modern Dickensian “best of times/worst of times” perspective, dripping heavily with both sweetness and sarcasm.

In an effort to fulfill dual goals of both bringing new challenges to artists AND make art affordable to the general public, Fox Tax began a series of annual exhibits titled “Art Form 1040″ in which artists are commissioned to make original works on a theme. The 10 top pieces of which become part of the Art Form 1040 series, where 10 prints of each piece are made and sold for a mere $40 each. The high quality archival prints are graciously made by local printer extraordinaire, The Lab Digital’s Eric Recktenwald. This year marks the 3rd installment of the series, and brings ten really great works to the bargain minded Art-a-whirl crowd of Northeast Minneapolis.
