An exhibition of tattoo inspired art by 10 artists from the U.S., Mexico and Japan, including Joel Hilgenberg of Memphis and the godfather of western tattoo culture, Don Ed Hardy.
With its wide embrace of styles, concepts, scales and media, the intention of Inked! Is to provide a dialogue on how this pervasive underground subculture has infiltrated the everyday and influenced artistic production in surprising, inventive, and remarkable ways.
