Pantone Peepshow – January 10th, 2009

Pantone Peepshow

The concept of Pantone Peepshow is a sneak peak into the lives of artists. The artists will share their process and perspective behind the art they create.

Pantone comes from the standardized color matching system(PMS) widely used between designers and printers. Part of the idea is how does art exist in physical space. This first show, we have selected artists with a similar styles, they are friends from previous art shows, current students at art/design schools and new friends. This show will be held at the Del Paso Works Gallery on Del Paso Blvd., show starts at 4pm, free!

Pantone Peepshow is a showcase of local designers/artists, hosted by Real Art Works. Real Art Works was founded at CSUS by Alex Trujillo. R.A.W.’s idea was to promote creativity amongst students in different areas of studies including graphic design, fine art, photography and music. The original idea was to have artists perform live art during the show. “I always envisioned events as entertainment showcasing different mediums by multiple artists. We are finally seeing the emergence of animation projections linked to music, which is something I always loved.”

Our future shows and collaborations will incorporate VJing, installations, design competitions and interactivity, where art meets science, like the Exploratorium in San Francisco.

Alex Trujillo is also the creator of the Sacramento’s first global online electronic music and product design resource center, Visaomedia.com and you may hear about another related show called S_CRET CITY, but that’s another story. Alex Trujillo works for Jeffrey DeMure + Associates Architects Planners and is also an Visual Communications Instructor at IADT Sacramento.

“We would also like to encourage everyone involved in Second Saturday events to respect and not exploit our creative culture. This should not be an excuse to party, but a time for us to educate our youth and spread positive awareness amongst each other.”
