Deep Ellum AMural Project

"To renew the rich landscape of authentic, independent art that has been the life blood of Deep Ellum for years, this year’s mural projects will follow in the footsteps of previous mural art projects in this beloved historic neighborhood. Phase I of the 2009 Mural Project will be the Good Latimer Corridor Murals. This phase will introduce murals along the Good Latimer/DART rail line in the very area that the Good Latimer Tunnel Murals have been buried. Dart line passengers will exit the Deep Ellum rails and be welcomed with murals from the following Phase I artists: Luke Harnden, Cathey Miller, Sergio Garcia, Mark Nelson, Brian Crawford, Amber Campagna, Issac Brown, Issac Davies, Tyson Summers, Judith Lea Perkins and Frank Campagna." from Kettle Art — Murals will begin along the corridor in July and August 2009.

Friend and longtime DARts Member James Michael Starr told me that "Two art & culture blogs started up just in the past couple months. KERA's Art&Seek was first, then more recently Renegade Bus. KERA has been less confrontational than the Bus (confrontational is good), but to different degrees they've each honestly addressed issues about the art scene here. Recent conversations have centered around Road Agent owner Christina Rees's article about Dallas art and collectors in State of the Union, Part 1, on Glasstire and D Magazine's Art Slam."

Lucia Simek's Crash Bam Slam in Renegade Bus discusses the f.i.g. and D Magazine's D Art Slam, but so does this site's Editor J R Compton's illustrated take on that lowly, turd-encrusted event in Art Here Lately, and all of this is again mentioned in the latest ThEdblog.

The Kimbell Art Museum has acquired Michaelangelo's earliest known painting, The Torment of Saint Anthony (1487-99). The full story is in the Dallas Morning News website.

North Lake College art teachers Marty Ray and fellow teacher Chris Fulmer will design two stations along Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) stations on the Orange Line from downtown Dallas to Irving and North Lake College in late 2012.
