Artist Reception: May 4, 2012
Music by The Footnotes

Rewind to 1986 with wildly creative art cars and the crazy antics of the Urban Animals roller skating gang. Relive the “New Music Parade,” the inspiration for Houston’s first art car parade, through the lens of George Hixson at Art Car Parade Retro 1986.

Hixson has been capturing the quirky and cool moments of Houston’s most-loved parade on wheels for the past 25 years. Today, the parade attracts 250+ entries from 23 states along with Canada and Mexico and draws a crowd of nearly 250,000.

At the artist reception, get an up-close look at art cars including the iconic Fruitmobile and rock out to The Footnotes, the first band to play the Art Car Ball.

Fifty percent of the proceeds from art sales will benefit The Orange Show Center for Visionary Art.

The winner of the Houston Press Music “Best Songwriter” and the “Best Female Vocalist” awards, she is best known as the “bold, blonde entertainer outta the old school!” Houston Modern Luxury Magazine, on The 2007 Lust List, named her the “Hottest Female Jazz Vocalist.”

As a Participating Space of the FotoFest® 2012 Biennial, MKT BAR at Phoenicia Specialty Foods Downtown presents “Revived Memories,” a black-and-white photography exhibit by Tatyana Bessmertnaya, a Ukrainian-born artist raised in North Russia and Siberia, who now lives and works in Plano, Texas. Come admire the exhibit through April 29 and join us for a special artist reception on March 27. The reception is open the public, all are welcome to attend and light bites will be served.

In her still-life works, Bessmertnaya reflects masterpieces completed by pictorialists. Her works gain inspiration from their subject and form of traditional art. Using real fruits, flowers, natural light and even antique objects, she resurrects the last century in contemporary photography.

An international non-profit organization based in Houston, Texas, FotoFest promotes the exchange of art and ideas through international programs and the presentation of photographic art.
