Here goes this thing. Please excuse my ridiculous bio. Will definitely change it before anything is published. Also the expense estimates are pretty vague. Let me know if you need more specific numbers, or any other changes on this thing before you take it to the people on Sunday. Travel-wise I'm definitely thinking two trips, one for a week or so to just take a zillion photos, eat a bunch of food, check out the ghetto mall, juke joints, basically get to know the city. Then a second trip before the show, set it up, any installations (can I work in the gallery for a week or two??). Basically I will do these whether there is a budget for it or not. Just if you can get me expense money I'll be able to do more and stay longer. COOOOOL let me know man. Oh and here's a link to a bunch of art samples: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/w5222hgkswq2gbn/AADl-Leevb45gq4Eh_O_ZYw9a ••••• BIO Hawk Krall is an artist and illustrator from Philadelphia who has spent the last few years painting regional foods, Philadelphia street scenes, and illustrating for magazines and newspapers around the country since 2001. More recently his repertoire has involved large, jam-packed cityscapes and murals, including the a 350-square foot “Pizzadelphia Wall of Fame” mural at Pizza Brain, the Guinness-Certified “World’s Largest Pizza Museum” in Philadelphia. Raised in a family of artists where summer vacation meant road trips across the country documenting abandoned amusement parks, diners and flea markets - and several years as a line cook everywhere from dive bars to 4-star french restaurants - a future that somehow combined American pop culture, comics, illustration and food was almost inevitable. PROPOSAL FOR ATLANTA SHOW Basically the idea is to give Atlanta the Hawk Krall treatment, similar to work I’ve done related to Philadelphia. Large black & white drawings of busy urban intersections, jam packed with a mix of people, signs, documenting (with plenty of artistic license) the funky, wild, less-traveled side of Atlanta. Along with the drawings, a series of more pop-art / sign painter style pieces on wood, featuring local foods and other items of interest. With the proper time and budget I’d also love to do something 3 dimensional, like a wood/cardboard life size store front that you can actually walk into, and/or a large wall mural installation as a sort of anchor to the show. I’d definitely spend some time here shooting photos and doing research, and possibly actually create some or all of the work in Atlanta if it’s feasible for me to do so.
