His Land is R.Land

I just had the pleasure of interviewing Atlanta-based artist R.Land today for a piece that'll be in next week's Connect.  I only meant to ask a couple of questions, but we ended up talking about art, music, Southern-ness, gentrification and the intersection between corporate practices and counterculture endeavors - and the conversation lasted about 45 minutes.

He's made a name for himself with crazy public art endeavors like this, which was hanging in various parts of Atlanta and beyond circa 2001:





There's also the various manifestions of the Loss Cat series, which made it's way into Found Magazine a while back. Land says they were disappointed when he informed them it was his creation, and not an authentic lost cat flier.





He also did the cover art for one ATHF DVDs, and has been working with the Williams Street guys on some new stuff as well.


 




He's got a show opening at Gallery Espresso on Bull St. in Savannah this week. The opening reception is Thursday. It'll be hanging all month. Grab some coffee and check it out.
