How do you go from struggling, emerging or even semi-established artist to selling a complete show for $198 million? It’s a big art world out there, but maybe this is one place to start!

Magical Elves (Peabody Award-winning Project Runway, Emmy Award-winning Top Chef) and Sarah Jessica Parker (Golden Globe- and Emmy Award-winner) and her production company, Pretty Matches, are teaming up for an hour-long creative competition series among aspiring contemporary artists who will create and compete to conquer the art world!

If you’re an emerging or mid-career artist with a unique, powerful voice that demands a bigger stage – well. . . Here. It. Is.

We want contemporary artists. Your medium could be one of many (or several of many) – painting, sculpture, installation, video, photography, mixed-media – we want voices that believe in their art and want the world to know.

Attend one of our four regional casting calls around the country and we will consider you for participation in this groundbreaking show.

After 10+ years with them, we recently made the switch from Sprint to Verizon for no reason other than better phone selection and service. We still follow the company and from a creative standpoint, we're not really big fans of the spots featuring Sprint CEO Dan Hesse. This morning we came across this spot co-directed by Superfad for Goodby, Silverstein & Partners. What a great spot! This is the direction that Sprint should be going in. If only they can get better phones!
