Shari Caldwell | Frida Kahlo is my BFF | IgniteDallas 3

My passion is to introduce the idea of collecting art into our daily conscience. Hate to repeat the cliché, but when money is tight art funding is the first thing to go. Dallas has a vibrant, hidden pool of unseen and under-represented emerging artists whose works are fresh, fun, different, and CHEAP. Eager to share, they are approachable rather than pompous, and my wish is to encourage people to meet them; buy from them; follow them--this is the most direct and exciting way to support the arts.

Thanks Shari for being the guardian angel for all us artists!

Terrific talk! Buying local, whether it is food, wine, music, art always has a positive effect on our community. Thanks for the perspective!

Hey Magic I hope it burns when you pee!
