FINE ART IN DALLAS 2011: A
RETROPSPECTIVE
Artisan Style and CityArtCal have teamed up to present the art of the Fine Art of
Dallas 2011 to Dallas. Five years ago, frustrated local artist Jennifer Culbertson
decided to publish a yearly art engagement book to showcase the hidden wealth
of talented artists Dallas can proudly call its own.  The 128 page book includes as
many as 100 Dallas area fine artists and is delivered at no charge in November to
14,000 homes in Park Cites, Preston Hollow and Lakewood neighborhoods.
Artisan Style is the latest avant guard boutique gallery to open in the Routh Fairmont
area and is run by Brandon Lynch, born in New Jersey and stuck on the art of Texas.  
 A graduate from SMU in communications, Brandon worked in advertising and
began visiting art galleries on the side. Most of the traditional galleries he visited
made him feel self conscious.  His longing to be surrounded by art in a relaxed,
inviting atmosphere led to opening a boutique gallery in an old house which had
been home to art for years.  Inviting, relaxing and comforting; the feel he wanted
and achieved.
When Culbertson approached Lynch about the 2011 Fine Art in Dallas book, there
was an immediate spark. Artisan Style was showing a number of the artists in the
book already, so it seemed only natural to join forces in promoting Dallas art. They
both agree that what makes a city truly unique can be found in the art created
there. Does art unseen make an impact? Not if Culbertson and Lynch have anything
to say about it!  The show opens September 10th from 5 until 8pm at Artisan Style,
247 Mahon Street, Dallas, Texas 75201.
