Now in its 20th year, Blue Star’s annual Red Dot fundraiser raises critical dollars in operational support as well as Blue Star Contemporary Art Center exhibitions, satellite exhibits around the city, ARTsmart educational programming, lectures, workshops, and free Family Days.
Blue Star/Red Dot 2010, Co-Chaired by Cristina Wheeler and Mike McClain, is a highly anticipated art sale benefiting Blue Star Contemporary Art Center and is an opportunity to purchase contemporary art selected by collectors from San Antonio and other Texas cities. It is also a great chance to meet artists and collectors from around the state.
Fifty percent of the art sales from the evening go back to participating artists in the community making BLUE STAR/ RED DOT the event in San Antonio that gives back the largest amount to artist through artwork sales. At last year’s event over $50,000 was given back to artists through the evenings art sales. This tremendous support stays true to the mission of Blue Star Contemporary Art Center and speaks to the history and roots of the organization, continuing its tradition as an artist run institution and supporting community artists through programming, exhibitions, art education and events.
Red Dot’s success reflects San Antonio’s continued commitment in keeping contemporary art thriving. Please call for sponsorship or collector information.

Description
David and Daniel Frank, identical twins aka Cosmocto, draw influences from buddhism, amazonian shamanism, street art and sacred geometry. Much of the imagery in their work is taken directly from personal experiences with entheogenic plant medicines. The Frank Brothers, from New York and Brattleboro, Vermont, approach their work as a spiritual practice, exploring dreams, alternate realities, ancient sacred teachings and the joy of the creative process.
Sala Diaz is a 501 (C)(3) non-profit space supporting the San Antonio community with exhibitions of local, national and international artists and is located at 517 Stieren, near the intersection of South Alamo and South Saint Mary’s Street in the heart of the Restaurant Supply District.

This is All Real
Joey Fauerso (San Antonio, TX)
Leslee Fraser (San Antonio, TX)
Gyan Shosbree (San Antonio, TX)
These three artists, inspired by the subjectivities and proclivities of the others, bring together their work in a maximalist installation that obfuscates authorship, and decentralizes the art object. This construction is a collection of collections! Art objects are interspersed with other items that any of the artists may covet, collect, or consume. Art is artifice, but this is all real.
Opening Reception: Friday, May 21, 6:30-10pm
Gallery Hours: Saturdays, 3-5pm and by appointment
