If you are in Boston, Swing by and check it out crack a cold one and maybe do a slappy or 2!

Phidias Gold presents, Stack the Deck, a skateboard art show taking place at the Fourth Wall Project in Boston, MA. What better place to have a skate deck show than a place that embraces loitering punks and flourishing artists. The show will feature works from thirty-one artist with over thirty boards on display. Like past Phidias Gold gallery shows, artists have full creative freedom, so you can expect to see sculptural boards, hand painted boards, laser engraved boards, and 1 of 1 digitally printed boards printed by the best in the business and co-sponsor BoardPusher. All skate decks will be for sale, as well as a limited run of screen printed event posters (seen above). The Distillation Show will also be on display. All liquor bottles are also for sale.

Stack The Deck

Phidias Gold Distillation Show Dec. 2nd 2011 http://www.blog.damionsilver.com/2011/11/19/phidias-gold-distillation-show-dec-2nd-2011/ http://www.blog.damionsilver.com/2011/11/19/phidias-gold-distillation-show-dec-2nd-2011/#comments Sun, 20 Nov 2011 04:36:52 +0000 Damion http://www.blog.damionsilver.com/?p=438 Upcoming at The Distillery Gallery:
Phidias Gold Presents: Distillation Show”
A Custom Liquor Bottle Gallery Event
November 24 – December 29, 2011
Opening Reception: December 2, 7-10pm
Hours: Mon-Sat, 9-5

Distill: to extract the essential elements of; refine; abstract.

The Distillery Gallery has teamed-up with Phidias Gold, a locally-based premium apparel brand designed for artists by artists, to present an exhibit which exists at the intersection of product and fine art.

Phidias Gold’s Distillation Show considers the space in which it takes place by asking a group of artists to work directly on blank 1L rum bottles. The unique artwork created for this show pays homage to the Distillery building’s former life as an actual rum distillery while continuing the Distillery Gallery’s outside-of-the-box approach to art exhibits. By combining fine art, design, and product within a gallery, Phidias Gold is “extracting the essential elements of” the brand, the artists, and the space. In addition to custom rum bottles, the exhibit will feature site-specific wall installations and a “product room” which will offer a behind-the-scenes look into Phidias Gold and some of the artists involved with company.

Please join us for the opening reception on Friday, December 2nd, 7-10pm
