The Cities Largest Live Painting Event. Created For Artists. By Artists.
|
Vancouver Art Attack has been a the forefront of Vancouver's robust underground contemporary art scene when it was established in 2013 by independent curator and art advisor, Kirsten Larsen.
Since it's inception we have evolved from an annual signature live painting auction fundraiser, into a creative consulting agency specializing in live art events, art auctions, pop up art galleries, curated art experiences, acquisitions, mentorship, artist representation and the Vancouver Art Attack Award of Excellence in Visual Arts at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. |
Our goal is simple:
|
Celebrate Vancouver's diverse art scene while providing a platform for artists to showcase their artistic talents, connect with the community and engage with potential art collectors, galleries and the public.
