Cassius King Gallery and Curator, Chako Suzuki, presents . . .

The Broken Wrist Project in NO HARD FEELINGS

The Broken Wrist Project is practicing some sorcery – they are resurrecting the slowly dying illustrated short story. Cassius King is turning loose its walls and letting The Broken Wrist Project show San Diego how they do it in NO HARD FEELINGS. The Broken Wrist Project’s raw, seductive aesthetic paired with artwork from some of the most inspiring graphic and fine artists will reveal what San Diego has been missing out on.

The Broken Wrist Project originated as an artist collective in Los Angeles in the late 1990s. It was formed to promote the efforts of a creative syndicate of painters, illustrators, and designers. The Broken Wrist Project consolidated its work with a network of writers based in Chicago to provide literary content to inspire and navigate the group¹s visual identity. The result of this collaboration is The Broken Wrist Project Book Series, a hybrid format that blurs the line between street-level art books and literary journals. The collective has been nationally recognized in magazines such as URB, The Fader, Tokion, Flaunt, and Anthem among others, and received the Merit Award at the Art Director’s Club’s 83rd Annual Awards.

The Broken Wrist Project’s NO HARD FEELINGS will be unique blend of 27 painters, photographers, sculptors, and illustrators under a single roof. With two 60-foot walls to fill, artists will be able to submit an impressive amount of work that transfers the aesthetic of their book to canvas and take the audience into the creative world of The Broken Wrist Project.

Come see what The Broken Wrist Project is all about at our NO HARD FEELINGS opening reception on Saturday, November 6, 2004, from 6 - 11:00 pm at the Cassius King Gallery at 435 Third Ave (between Island and J Street in downtown San Diego). There will be artwork, a limited edition T-shirt (designed by KATSUO DESIGN) and both Broken Wrist Project books to buy as well as the new book by New York artist, Misaki Kawai. The show will only run until November 24, 2004.

Featured Artists: Betsey Davis, Ryan Wallace, Jeff Williams, Kyle Field, Katsuo Design, Rory Wilson, Joseph Hart

Plus: Travis Chatham, Saiman Chow, Kevin Christy, P-Jay Fidler, Arthur Giron, Jason Holley, Misake Kawai, Kyoko Kawasaki, Ashley Macomber, Taylor McKimens, Max Miceli, Martha Rich, Corey Sandelius, Jeff Soto, Steve Sueoka, and Zen Sekizawa

The Broken Wrist Project and Cassius King Gallery advocate promoting and nurturing new artists and the importance of exposing as many people as possible to art. With your support in 2004 and in a down economy, we would like to continue to bolster the city’s progressive art movement and the careers of up-and-coming artists from around the country. This type of participation is instrumental in exposing people to the importance of visual arts in our community and having a space for artists to share their work with the public.
