Your Art Outlet 

As real estate is getting more precious in Arlington (and unfortunately nation wide), Art Outlet joins forces with the North Roslyn Civic Association to help raise awareness to save the Wilson School from demolition. Arlington needs spaces for people to think freely and express themselves creatively. Adding highrises to an already over crowded corridor is not an answer. At Art Outlet we believe that arts and culture add to the benefits of a neighborhood. Don't get rid of the 'things' people initially move to for.

Drift is organized by The DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities in partnership with the Washington Convention Center. The Artwalk is located on 10th Street (between New York Avenue and H Street, NW). A

At the opening reception on Friday, June 15, 2007, artist, photographer, and Director of the Ellipse Arts Center in Arlington, Virginia Cynthia Connolly gave a powerful speech on the role of artists and the 'creative mind' in the changing real estate landscape of DC in a retrospective look at the region's art history over the past 3 decades.

 

Art Outlet's first Flash Movie Festival came to an end. We would like to thank all Flash artists, who participated in this groundbreaking event. The program was truly magnificent. 

The Best of Show Award of $250.00, which is sponsored by Bonotom Studio in Arlington VA, is going to ALAN BECKER in Dublin, Ohio, USA for his "Animator vs Animation pt 1 & 2" series. Congratulations!

We are now on MySpace. Go and see our movie trailers, check out event photos and listen to MP3s from our performers.

Luis Jimenez
07-30-1940 – 06-15-2006

Luis was an artist, mentor and friend of mine. His tragic death leaves a big hole for his family, his friends, and the art community as a whole. I learned about his death from a sculptor friend who called me today from Texas.  In 1996, I entered the US on a student visa to start my studies in Fine Art at the University of Houston, Texas, not yet knowing what impact Luis would leave on me. Through his mentoring, friendship and positive attitude, I developed my drawing skills, my art direction, and found courage in life to move on as an artist – courage, which we all need right now, as we mourn his passing. He left behind a great legacy of passion, love, life, defined art history and Chicano culture and continues to inspire. Luis, you will never be forgotten.
