Description
White Walls Project Space Presents: Unpire! by internationally known artist, designer and art director Niels 'Shoe' Meulman. The show opens July 6, 2013 from 7-11pm. The exhibition will be on view through August 10, 2013 and is free and open to the public.As a tribute to the game, Meulman will create a series of Calligraffiti works titled Unpire! to fill the White Walls Project Space depicting various baseball terms painted with official umpire's brushes. Unusual tools are standard practice for Meulman, who has used brooms to paint all over the world, from the streets of Singapore to the floor of a boxing ring for Louis Vuitton’s tribute videos to Muhammad Ali.
Using traditional wooden plate brushes, the Dutch artist honors America’s favorite pastime with a sweeping elegance. And what better place to do this than in the World Series-winning San Francisco?
