"'This year's ARTERY
theme "ICONS--from Soup to Saints" lets this
collection of regional artists imaginations run
wild. Expect the unexpected with 27 new
artist's interpretations ranging from-- Warhol's
soup can to Our Lady of Perpetual
Procrastination," says ARTERY creatrix Charlotte
Buchanan of the of the new art panels to debut on
September 29th at the ARTERY site at one North
Main parking lot which also hosts the Eureka
Sunday Market and the Lucky 13 Starlight Cinema in
historic downtown Eureka Springs.
"Art is the life blood
of Eureka Springs. We want to keep it flowing
through all areas of the town, and we want to
support our working artists and make Eureka
Springs a regional arts destination."
With Charlotte's
partners in the ARTERY project, Chris Bradley and
Randy Rust, describe the anticipation of each 8 x
4 foot panels-- "It's like Christmas as each panel
arrives on the Saturday of installation. When we
pick the theme our only request to the artist is
to create with passion." This year will include
some of the region's young rising stars, as the
Artery mixes regional masters with our youth.
Artists home bases range from Monticello, Arkansas,
Fayetteville, Bentonville, Springfield, Mo.,
