I came here for an art opening a couple weeks ago. The space is nice... big large room, with two…read moresort of cove spaces. THE LOCATION is west midtown, parking was either valet or find a space on the street... we ended up on some side street, but it was fine. THE CROWD was kinda awesome. Very diverse and traditionally artsy folks... with some hipsters and regulars mixed in. It was a little too crowded though, they had a cash bar with beer only. Beer? Beer? Really though... a little Trader Joe's wine would have went a long way. THE ART was cool. One artist created prints using the word "word". Another merged body parts in symmetry creating a landscape via ink/pen. These seem to be those independent do what I want, I think this would be cool art school kinda artist if that makes any sense. You know the kids who dye there hair blue or pink or purple... thats this crowd. Prices for art was in the $3000 range on average for the bigger works. I may have saw a few pieces that were a couple hundred (lets say $300ish range) Overall, good vibes, cool art, interesting people, huge crowd, nice space... I'll probably always give art galleries no less than a 4 even if I wanted to.

This gallery owner is not afraid of anything or anyone. Shows what he wants, when he wants. His…read morekindness is the only thing that shows as much as his courage. I've spent some time here, at shows, and hanging out. What a gem. Yu-Kai and his staff, have begun to spin a web that may actually foster an art community in Atlanta. That would be a first since the demise of ACA. Stop in some time. Take in what's on the walls. Talk to the staff. Ask for a cup of coffee. These people are intelligent, and nice. An amazingly refreshing venue in our often disconnected city!

I recently attended the opening of Corrine Colarusso's Shaggy Land exhibit (go see it! it's up till…read moreApril 2!) at Sandler Hudson and I was really impressed with the space. My only previous experience with the gallery has been annoyance at the 2 prime reserved spots they've got in the Octane parking lot. Yes, they deserve these spots, but when I'm lugging a giant ancient computer and feeling lazy, I have certainly shaken my fist at them before. The space itself is beautiful, and quite fitting for Corinne's oversized work. There is one main room that is large enough that you can appreciate each piece individually but yet intimate enough to see everything as a whole collection. There's also a small room at the front which is a great spot for smaller pieces, as there's not enough room to really step back and see something big, but it has great light. This isn't a gallery I'd necessarily recommend for private events (they don't have nice bathrooms or the right layout like spots like Kai Lin) but it's definitely worth a spot, or at least a peek in the windows to see what great local artist they may be featuring.

The place was packed with what I called the Haves and the Have Nots, but the diversity of the crowd did little to spoil the evening. Maybe it was the two models holding champagne trays as you entered the door. That did it for me if no one else. I saw old friends greet and hug, and newbies mingle with others over what I think is being called the galleries most provocative exhibition yet. There was other art to view, and one of these days, when I either hit the lottery or get a hold to the trust fund, I'm sure has been hidden from me, I will surely return and buy several pieces. Primarily, I think I'd rather hire Harriett out and have her do a DeeDee version of the "Pass the Salt" photograph that was hanging here.

This gallery is in a building with other galleries, so it's similar to salon suites. They have used their space wisely though and have beautiful pieces on display.

My friend and I went on a free Sunday and even ran into some other friends while we were there. We got to watch a youth dance performance featuring all different styles--from kids dancing in suits to a Mary Poppins-themed routine it was so incredibly cute! The art itself really spoke to me. I got to see cultural pieces from my home country that I rarely ever see elsewhere, and it honestly brought tears to my eyes. They were also highlighting a Black woman's art that day; hearing her story and seeing the way she painted up until her passing, alongside works from other Black artists, was profoundly beautiful. This was my second time visiting the High, and I absolutely hope to go more often whenever I have the time!

I especially enjoyed the mix of contemporary and classic works, and the building itself is beautiful with plenty of natural light. We visited on a weekend afternoon and found it busy but still comfortable to navigate. There were plenty of benches throughout for taking a break and really appreciating the artwork. I'd recommend this for a date, solo afternoon, or when you have visitors in town. My biggest tip would be to check the special exhibitions before your visit since they can be a major highlight. Definitely one of Atlanta's gems.
