ARTfordable Show at LVAC October 15 and 16, 2010

Tired of the downtown art scene? Looking for incredible art work that won't break the bank? Welcome to recently launched LVAC: Louisville Visual Art s Collective.

Located at 2932 Cleveland Boulevard, LVAC provides a unique environment designed to encourage artistic/patron dialogue and viewing by offering a deliberately cozy and laid-back atmosphere. The 7000 square foot building showcases a wide variety of art work and mediums provided by local, international, established, up and coming and midlevel artists.

The gallery features rotating and permanent exhibits as well as special exhibitions including the upcoming ARTfordable Art Show which will be debuting and running through October 15 - 16th. Artwork starts at $50 and up. The show provides a great way for Louisville art lovers to find unique, locally created art work at very reasonable prices. The ARTfordable show will feature painters, photographers, printmakers and jewelry designers.

At press time The Artfordable Show has signed over 15 artists including Louisville born, Keith Linton, and South African artist, Emil Walton, who also oversee LVAC operations as directors. Keith Linton, www.keithlinton.com, uses contemporary, industrial products such as foams, plastics and other synthetics. His contemporary multimedia approach gives warmth and character to these otherwise cold materials. His "constructed deconstructions" of the natural world offer vibrant dimensional images what show an unforgiving, yet fascinating energy.

Emil Walton www.emilwalton.com, is a mixed media artist born in Namibia, Southwest Africa. In 2008, Emil settled in Louisville after living in South Africa and travelling throughout Europe. He has exhibited in several galleries around Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio. His powerful work has a self described ‘social-political" vibe, touching on various international and domestic issues of our current cultures and political climates. Emil is the founder of the contemporary art pace, ART227, in St Matthews.
