YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED DASH "2000" FIDEL

We are very shocked and sorry to say that artist Dash "2000" Fidel passed away in his sleep after battling cancer on Sunday, January 9th, 2010. The news of his passing hit the hearts of many as he was well known within the art community for his friendship, talent and cutting edge signature style pieces.



Dash "2000" Fidel had shown at the gallery many times over the years. His last piece he had on display at the gallery was in October during the Faces of Skid Dow exhibition which was a benefit for the homeless living on Skid Row. Dash was considered not only a friend of the gallery but a talented artist with a promising future.

We send all our love and support to the family, friends and the UTI crew.

Respectfully,
Crewest

PRINTED - Hell of a successful show!

The Opening Reception was December 6th and was off the hook!

Over 700 peeps were in attendance that night! We ended up shutting down the event at exactly 9pm because of the huge crowd that was spilling out into the street and causing traffic to back up in all directions.





Two Rabbits handled the live hand-printing
at the opening and during the Downtown Artwalk.





With live sets performed by DJ Phyz Ed and friends.
