How Come I Was Not in the Cat Art Show?

February 4, 2014 By: Sparkle Cat49 Comments

I was framed!

My human was in San Diego when the opening of the Cat Art Show happened in Los Angeles, but she made it there this past weekend.

Pretty straightforward

It was everything she expected it to be, and more!

This was just a small selection of cat art

It was a big gallery, full of cat art, and even though the opening was the weekend before, it was still packed with hipster humans.

My human could make this with Boodie's fur

Some of the art was kind of weird, like this speaker full of cat hair.

It was totally out of my human's price range

Some of it was really awesome, like this huge quilt of punk cat art.

Reminds me of the Binga song!

Here is a closer look at one of the squares.

I like the sentiment here

This was my human’s favorite piece, and I would have loved for her to bring it home, but as you can see from the red sticker next to it, it was already sold.

If your phone has a QR reader, it will read this photo

Her other favorite piece was this huge QR reader by Ryan Metke. There were feral cats hiding inside! It was easy to find them if your phone had a QR reader app. When your phone read the code above, it led you to a cool video called Huxley Cats. It was shot right by New York City.

But what I want to know is, how come I was not part of this showing? There is cat art of me that would have looked totally cool.

This should be real!

See?

We need a wall like this at my house

In fact, they could even fill a whole gallery with me! I need to get my human on this, stat.

    I thought I commented the other day, but I don’t see it. Anywho, you definitely should have been part of the art. Who was in charge?! That is a pretty spectacular seat full of fur. Not sure I would call it art, but to each his own. Thanks for sharing on the Pet Parade!

    You really need to have your own show Sparkle….although you might have to include Binga in a few pieces!!! And we agree, the cat hair in the speaker thing is a little bit eeeeeepy cray.

    Yes, Sparkle, darling. I am sure that your Human is planning a *SOLO* exhibition for you–really, why would you want to share space with other beings, even if they are kind of cool?

    Hmmm, cat fur in a bowl. Some people have strange notions of art. You, on the other hand have some beautiful photos that could have been in the show.

    well, Sparkle, you not being part of the exhibit is certainly the public’s loss. Your museum pieces at the end of your post are wonderful! Still, the exhibit looks pretty pawsome! That speaker full of fur looks like a bowl of pasta or something 😀 We like your human’s favorite, and Captain Americat…and… 😀 Thanks for sharing! (oh, and the quilt square made us think of Binga’s song too, mol!)

    Yet another indignity suffered at the hands of your thoughtless human right Sparkle????? No doubt you would have had your artwork snapped up in record time and a fortune paid for the right to have an original Sparkle sparkling on the wall……you need to severely reprimand your human immediately…..might I suggest an especially LARGE furball??????

    Hugs, Sammy

    Sparkle, you need an agent! You could have dominated that show, and we bet every piece would have sold.

    Wow ! Would have loved to see this exhibition ! You gave me an excellent idea what to do with Kim’s hairs ! So far I only painted cats, but now I also could create some modern art, as she produces hairs as if she had been a sheep in her former life ! What do you think about a white chamber pot with black cat hairs ??
