RE-CREATING KEVIN EASTMAN’S STUDIO
AND SELLING IT!
Inside the Galley space is a 15 x 15 foot square room, with a wall sized glass window looking
into IT–where Kevin Eastman will move into and recreate his entire ART STUDIO
and SELL IT TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER!
All items in the exhibit space will be taken directly from HIS Los Angeles based Art Studio—and
set up as a working exhibit! Everything including desk, chairs, tables,
original artwork, books, files, projects, comics, DVD’s, CD’s, things you (and
even he) can’t even imaging. It will be a wall to wall, floor to ceiling once
in a lifetime event, that will have to be seen in person to be truly believed!
(*Photo’s of the old and the new studio space will be posted online shortly!)
