Visit the artblog.
Stemming from their 20-years of artistic collaboration, and joint enthusiasm for the art world, the artblog delivers news and reviews about the Philadelphia art scene.
Blog entries incorporate a nice blend of optimism and frankness, reinforced through the conversations undertaken via visitor comments. The combination of these factors make the artblog a great place for those looking to get involved in a discussion about art, regardless of whether they are a new to, or a hardened veteran of, the art scene.
The theme of open involvement in art is continued in one of the projects that Fallon and Rosof founded, called the Zero .1% for Art Commission. It aims to get .1% of the population of Philadelphia to own a piece of art. Their tactic is to simply get on the streets and give away small art objects, which they have created, to the community. The motive behind the mission is to bridge the perceived gap between the general public and art.
the artblog is deservedly acclaimed for its community-spirit, and exemplary coverage; we recommend it as a destination all art lovers should check out.
