"Eden's Abundant Life" 8ft x 9ft Acrylic/canvas by Iantha Newton at Hixson Walmart Pop-Up Art Exhibit
For the month August through September Hixson Walmart Supercenter is hosting a pop up art exhibit of a large scale painting titled, "Eden's Abundant Life."
The painting on exhibit is at the front of the store opposite the checkout counters. It is a highly colorful acrylic work of art on 6 canvas panels assembled to present one large 8ft x 9ft work of art.
The project "You Come to Art - Art Comes to You" was conceived of by Iantha Newton one of 11 recipients of an ArtsBuild "Artists Work" grant. Iantha wants to extend access to fine-art beyond the world of the museum/gallery setting into less formal casual surroundings.
Hixson Walmart is partnering with ArtsBuild and the artist to place artwork in a the familiar environment of a local Walmart, Hixson in this case, for their customers and staff to enjoy.
The "Artists Work" grant program is supported by both Lyndhurst and Footprint foundations and ArtsBuild donors.
